WHAT: L’Oréal True Match Lumi Glotion Natural Glow Enhancer
WHY: Who among us hasn’t dreamed of skin that glows like the tin man?
But of course, there cannot be glitter involved in any way, shape, or form. Please. Who do you think you’re talking to? We are all over 40 here. We know what chunks of glitter can do to wrinkles and texture. No to all of that.
But yes to dewy, glazed-donut foreheads, and glossy, light reflecting cheekbones.
And double yes when the product that can achieve this glow is waiting for you on Amazon for $7 right now.
Sometimes drugstore products are just better than fancy ones. And this one definitely is better than anything in its category. Everything in the “Lumi” line from L’Oréal is great—notably their concealers and foundations, especially for mature skin, but this “glotion” (ugh to that portmanteaus but damnit if this doesn’t make sense) is really very special.
It comes in a few shades so you don’t have to worry that it will lighten or darken your skin like most glow-giving primers can. And one, dime-sized amount is all we need under foundation to shine like the top of the Chrysler building. But in a good way.
If you’re having a good skin day, you can even wear this alone, sans foundation, with just a tiny dab of concealer under the eyes, a swipe of mascara and call it a damn day.
