Beauty enthusiasts are increasingly abandoning traditional foundations this summer in favour of a lightweight skin glow product that is currently available at a discounted price. The e.l.f. Halo Glow Liquid Filter, a soft-focus complexion booster infused with hyaluronic acid, provides a subtle tint and radiant finish to the skin. Normally retailing at £16, this natural-looking skin enhancer can now be purchased for as low as £12.50 on Amazon, depending on the chosen shade.
Versatile Use and High Demand
The Halo Glow can be used as a makeup primer or blended with foundation to impart a hydrating, luminous boost. With over 300 units sold on Amazon in the past month alone, the product has garnered more than 19,700 customer reviews. One satisfied shopper shared, "I use this instead of foundation as I hate a cakey overdone look on me! This still allows your skin to shine through but just makes it look perfectly finished. Love it."
Customer Praise and Preferences
Another user commented, "Love this stuff. I use day to day and gives you such a gorgeous natural glow. I now just use this instead of the foundation but I've used it under foundation for a full glam night out look and works great for that too. Such a reasonable price and it's my absolute go-to makeup now." A third reviewer added, "Love it. Amazing for brightening the skin - I don't need foundation just this."
However, some customers expressed a desire for more coverage. One reviewer noted, "Thought it was more a foundation but it’s low coverage and too shiny." For those seeking alternatives, Charlotte Tilbury's Hollywood Flawless Filter is a premium option. Priced at £40, it also comes in a £15 travel size and served as the inspiration for many other complexion boosters on the market. The Hollywood Flawless Filter provides 24 hours of hydration and has been used by celebrities such as Kate Moss and Bella Hadid.
Affordable Alternatives
Another budget-friendly choice is the Rimmel Multi-Tasker Better Than Filters, priced at £12.99. This three-in-one skin tint is enriched with natural bio-peptides, including vitamins C and E, for a brightening effect.
