Beauty fans can snap up one of Charlotte Tilbury’s popular foundations for less than £30 in a sitewide sale. From Today (May 21) until Tuesday, May 26, shoppers have the chance to get 20% off across Charlotte Tilbury with no minimum spend and no code required.

That means the Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Skin Sheet Glow Tint Hydrating Foundation Stick is now down from £37 to £29.60 saving shoppers £7.40. Speaking to The Independent, Charlotte Tilbury explained why she wanted to create a foundation specifically suited to mature skin.

She said: “As we age, our skin begins to show signs of aging like fine lines, wrinkles, and dehydration, which can change how makeup looks and applies. I have seen so many people with mature skin shy away from foundation as they worry it will make them look older. I wanted something that worked for those with mature skin who want that lifting, smoothing, blurring effect.”

The foundation stick is designed to give a natural-looking glow with sheer-to-light buildable coverage, while helping blur and smooth the appearance of skin. Charlotte Tilbury describes it as the ‘ultimate no-foundation foundation’, thanks to its lightweight finish and soft-focus effect.

Infused with hydrating hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, the formula also contains daikon radish seed oil and 'Collageneer' to help nourish the skin and support the skin barrier over time. According to the brand, it is clinically proven to help strengthen the skin barrier after just one application. The stick foundation is available in 20 shades and uses Charlotte Tilbury’s ‘Light Mapping Mesh Tech’, designed to reflect light across the face for a lifted, blurred and glowing finish.

As an alternative, LookFantastic has the Bobbi Brown Skin Foundation Stick for £39. Described as a ‘lightweight foundation stick with a fresh finish’, it comes in 43 shades and has olive extracts and shea butter to offer an ‘ultra-soft, supple surface’.

Sephora also has the Best Skin Ever Foundation Stick for £17.99. This one has a medium to high, buildable coverage and is suitable for dry, normal, oily and combination skin.

The Charlotte Tilbury Hydrating Foundation Stick has garnered a high 4.3 out of five star-rating from over 300 reviews online. One person wrote: “Bought this as part of my vacation makeup. It's very easy to use and stores great. Also has a great glow. Not too much, but definitely something.”

Another added: “Love this product, doesn't even look like I'm wearing foundation.” A third commented: “Love this. Glides on. Blends perfectly to my skin tone. Leaves a beautiful natural look.”

This person removed a star and said: “I really liked this foundation as it felt really light on the skin. The smell was pleasant and the packaging was very nice, you can tell it's a higher end product.

“The shade range is very wide but maybe a few more in between shades would be better.” Another added: “It does a great job of brightening my face and making me look more awake, however it does have quite a sheen to it so I did powder it down in places.”
