Beauty lovers are embracing the no-makeup, glass skin trend and have stopped using foundation after they discovered a new skincare from Korean beauty brand Erborian.
The Skin Hero Bare Skin Perfector is a silicone-free, non-tinted cream that works to enhance your skin once applied, leaving a soft and hydrated feeling. People who have tried the cream said it’s so lightweight that as if there is nothing on their skin.
Many shoppers shared they “feel confident with their bare skin” and feel comfortable enough to “go out without makeup” after trying the £42 cream as it smoothes, blurs and illuminates skin instantly. It’s available to purchase at Erborian online, Boots and online beauty retailers like Escentual and Amazon.
The gentle retexturising enzymes promote skin cell turnover and work to refine the skin for a glowing complexion while the Korean White Ginseng complex aids to brighten the skin. It also has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties that help protect the skin from damaging free radicals and other environmental skin aggressors.
One shopper gave it a go and was not disappointed, she wrote: “I have used it for five days and already noticed the pores on my nose are much smaller.”
This also works on mature skin as a woman shared: “Since becoming older I’ve found that lighter products and ones that support skin health as well as making my skin look great is the key! I have been using Erborian moisturiser for a while now and have added Skin Hero to my routine.”
But some people said they couldn’t spot any major difference, with one spilling: “Not sure yet about this product or what it is supposed to achieve. Have used for a few days but not seen great change or improvement in finish. Maybe more of a primer than a stand alone product.”
On the Erborian website, it states: “If you notice a green/white veil, here are some tips for you to get the perfect result: 1 ½ pumps is enough for the whole of your face. Blend the cream into a thin layer, starting from the inside to the outside of your face.
“If your skin is really dry, apply a nourishing cream before to help soften. This should help you to enjoy the benefits of Skin Hero.”
For others looking for something with light coverage, Makeup Revolution’s new Skin Silk Serum Foundation is a light-medium coverage makeup with hyaluronic and peptide complex. It retails at £10.99 but you can receive a Revolution The Icons Minis Summer Edit for free when spending £14 or more on the brand.
Glow Recipe’s bronzing Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Hue Drops is another makeup-skincare hybrid that everyone’s been talking about. It hydrates your skin but with a luxurious bronzy tint to it.
This tinted serum calls on brightening niacinamide to even out skin tone and minimise the appearance of pores over time, all while depositing a sun-kissed wash of colour across your complexion.
