This Foundation Is the Celebrity Secret to Flawless Skin, and It's on Sale
Do you ever see a photo of a celebrity and wonder how on Earth their makeup looks so flawless? Sure, a lot of that flawlessness can be attributed to celebrity makeup artists, access to the top derms and facialists, and maybe even Photoshop. But there is one product that celebrity makeup artists consistently reach for more than any other when looking to create a flawless skin-like finish.
The product in question? Chantecaille Future Skin Gel Foundation. While makeup artists have been reaching for this product for years, it first garnered attention when it became known as the foundation that celebrity makeup artist Donni Davy used on the set of Euphoria. "These foundations look like skin. They do not look at all like foundation," Davy told Who What Wear UK. "It melts into the skin and looks so much like skin."
The trick to this foundation is all in the formula. Chantecaille Future Skin is an oil-free gel that allows for customizable, lightweight, and buildable coverage. It melts seamlessly into the skin, like an Instagram filter. Since it's made with 60% water, aloe, and Camellia sinensis (tea leaf) extract, the formula hydrates and nourishes skin while evening skin tone and adding coverage.
Every product has a downside, and the downside to Chantecaille Future Skin is that it's $89, which is quite a pretty penny for a foundation. Even though the jar lasts a long time and is worth the investment, I still feel uneasy shelling out so much for a face product. Right now, though, Dermstore is having its Anniversary Sale, and one of the products included in the sale is Chantecaille Future Skin. From August 8 until August 17, you can use the code CHEERS at checkout to get 25% off Chantecaille's cult-favorite foundation (and plenty of other beloved products).
