The XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxdation is the newest base product from Revolution’s newest brand. Revolution launched their newest sister brand this week; the XX Revolution brand, and they have set up an Instagram account for the new brand which is XXRevolution, and the bio of the account says “Beauty rewired. SkinXXmakeup”.
XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxdation
The difference between their other sister brands, is that the XX Revolution products are available via Revolution and also Boots (like Makeup Obsession), and not Superdrug like the rest of the Revolution products.
This is a post dedicated to the XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxdation, and I’ve featured the H2 Glow Bomb Primer.
This new XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxdation launch has an amazing 55 shades, and is described as having a lightweight, buildable coverage which is infused with illuminating pearl particles.
The XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxation contains hyaluronic acid for a more hydrating formula, and the medium to full coverage is said to be perfect for ‘customising your beat for your perfect glowing skin finish and lit from within radiance’. It’s also said to contain collagen and peptides.
The whole premise behind the XX Revolution brand is the combination of skincare with makeup. So the formulas contain more skincare ingredients than say their main range products do.
This foundation claims to offer hyaluronic acid, collagen and peptides, but there’s no mention anywhere (yet) on the amounts of those ingredients to know how much of a benefit these products would have on your skin.
This new foundation is £15 and contains 27ml of products, which is less than the average foundation. Drugstore and high end foundations tend to offer 30ml of product, so yes 3ml isn’t masses of product, it’s still something to consider when you’re paying £15 as that’s almost double the price of say a Rimmel foundation.
The packaging is very sleek, with a rectangular, frosted glass bottle with an XX on the front. The foundation has a super sleek pump, and it does look very luxe for a drugstore foundation.
XX Revolution claim that their XX Revolution Glow Skin Fauxxdation has 55 shades that cater to yellow, olive, pink, neutral, cool, golden, orange and warm undertones.
