For the past few months, I’ve been testing 30 of the most hyped new beauty launches so you don’t have to—filming swatches, application, and wear tests, and taking super detailed notes along the way. In this video, I’m walking you through what’s actually worth your money (and what’s not) across foundations, concealers, powders, bronzer, blush, and highlighter. I’m also calling out the “science-y” marketing claims that sound amazing on paper—like blurring, shine control, and skincare benefits—and comparing them to what I actually saw on my skin after a full day. On foundation, Armani Luminous Silk (reformulated) is the most serum-like and lightweight to me, but it’s finicky and not reliable enough for $69. RMS SunCoverup SPF 50 wears beautifully and looks healthy, but it triggered breakouts on my acne-prone skin. Charlotte Tilbury’s reformulated Airbrush Flawless is truly budge-proof and insanely perfected (but definitely makeup-y), while Makeup by Mario and Natasha Denona Hy-Glam both looked pretty at first yet didn’t hold up the way I wanted—especially around my mouth and texture. For concealer, the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Blur Concealer genuinely impressed me as a full-coverage option that still looks fresh, and I’ll be honest: the packaging is messy, but the formula is that good.
