The Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint (£35) promises a 'second-skin finish' with a 'soft-focus blur' - and it has already been heralded as 'the best foundation stick' people have ever used

'The best foundation I have ever used,' one reviewer posted. Another customer described it as 'magic in a stick,' adding enthusiastically, 'My skin, but better.'

Others describe the formula as barely there, with a 'natural' finish akin to wearing nothing on the skin.

One beauty reviewer said: 'It feels very lightweight, almost like I'm not wearing foundation. It leaves you with a lovely, beautiful, flawless look and doesn't look cakey at all. This is definitely going to be a favourite foundation for me.'

While the 'ultra-glowy' foundation only launched today, TikTok and Instagram already boast hundreds of selfies and videos of women showing off how glowing their skin looks - and some fans even claim it's a foundation version of its viral Hollywood Flawless Filter.

'I have taken the smoothing, blurring, lit-from-within effects of the viral ring light and bottled them,' Charlotte Tilbury MBE shared in an official press release

Charlotte added: 'Unreal Skin gives you that smooth, soft-focus, blurred glow that looks so natural and makes your face look so naturally beautiful, so refreshed and rested, like your skin after a relaxing holiday!'.

The Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint contains hyaluronic acid, which helps lock in your skin's moisture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles, leaving it looking plumper. The product has a lightweight consistency and offers buildable sheer-to-light coverage.

The foundation boasts Vitamin E, pearlescent pigments, and 'plant-powered Collageneer' to 'define the look of the jawline for a snatched finish'

I usually steer clear of glowy, radiant-finish foundations, preferring matte formulas because they often offer better coverage for my redness.

However, Unreal Skin has a gorgeous line-plumping, skin-smoothing finish that delivers an even-toned complexion in an instant. It provides a light, fresh, skin-like coverage that allows my freckles to shine through, all while offering a seriously dewy finish.

The blendability is incredibly satisfying, but I did find I needed to lightly powder my chin and nose. This isn't unusual for me when applying any foundation. If you have oily skin, be aware that this foundation won't keep the shine at bay, and you may need to touch up shine with a powder throughout the day. However, for those with dry skin, it's a beautiful option.

During testing, I received numerous compliments on how my skin looked. And despite its glowing finish, I was pleasantly surprised by its long-lasting wear.

Overall, Charlotte Tilbury Unreal Skin Sheer Glow Tint is truly a game-changer for anyone seeking a radiant, natural look. And fans are right in comparing it to a foundation version of the viral Hollywood Flawless Filter - it's bound to sell out quickly.
