Futurist Skin Tint Serum Foundation SPF 20 with Glycerin

Estée Lauder Futurist Skin Tint Serum Foundation sits closer to a serum than a traditional base — Estée Lauder puts the skincare content at 85% of the formula. You get light coverage with a radiant finish, broad-spectrum SPF 20, and a silky liquid that evens, smooths and moisturises as it wears.

What it actually does

• Moisture that lands fast and stays. Estée Lauder credits moisture saccharides and glycerin with delivering both an immediate surge and long-lasting, all-day hydration.
• Texture and tone work over time. Glucosamine together with Trametes versicolor extract are the ingredients the brand names for smoothing skin texture and improving tone gradually.
• Nourishment from botanical oil. An oil infusion is included to nourish and strengthen skin.
• Holds up to sweat and humidity. The brand describes it as sweat- and humidity-resistant, with up to eight hours of colour-true wear that doesn't streak or crease.
• Protects while it wears. Broad-spectrum SPF 20 guards against UVA and UVB damage.
• Fragrance-free. The formula leaves out parabens, phthalates, mineral oil and SLS/SLES sulfates, and contains under one percent synthetic fragrance.
• Brand testing note. Estée Lauder reports a clinical study in which, after one week, skin tone looked improved, skin looked smoother, and skin's own moisture had increased. Brand-reported; results vary.

How to use

1. Find your shade in two steps. First pick your intensity level, from ultra-light through to very deep; then pick your undertone — cool, neutral or warm.
2. Shake the bottle well. A serum-weight formula needs mixing before it comes out even.
3. Smooth it over the skin. Begin at the centre of the face and blend outward.
4. Keep it out of the eyes. Work around the lash line rather than over it.

Questions

How do I pick the right shade?

Estée Lauder's own method is two-part: choose the intensity level that matches your depth (ultra-light up to very deep), then choose your undertone from cool, neutral or warm. If you're between two, message us and we'll help you narrow it down.

Is it a skincare product or makeup?

It's a foundation, but Estée Lauder states that 85% of the formula is skincare ingredients — glycerin and moisture saccharides for hydration, glucosamine and Trametes versicolor extract for texture and tone, plus a botanical oil infusion.

Will it hold in Cairo heat?

The brand describes it as sweat- and humidity-resistant with up to eight hours of wear that stays colour-true and doesn't streak or crease. Expect to touch up if you're out all day in high summer.

How long does delivery take?

Delivery takes 3 to 21 working days, depending on availability. Shades in stock go out first; sourced shades sit at the longer end.
