There Isn’t a Single Allure Editor Who Isn’t Obsessed With Kosas’s First Foundation

I (news editor Nicola Dall’Asen), on the other hand, can’t stand anything other than tinted moisturizers and light-coverage foundations because my sensitive skin is an absolute baby when it comes to face makeup. That said, I found it incredibly easy to sheer out this foundation with a little bit of moisturizer and rub it in with my fingers (another non-negotiable foundation factor for me: finger painting). On an extra lazy day, I can also get away with applying itty-bitty amounts of it by itself with a fluffy blending brush in the spots I need a little coverage. 

Because I can’t live without glistening cheekbones, and this foundation has such a glowing finish, I can skip setting powder altogether. That’s miraculously enough to keep Revealer Foundation in its place, undisturbed, for an entire workday — at last, a foundation I can actually wear!

Light-to-medium coverage with built-in hydration is where Allure beauty and wellness editor Taylore Glynn’s foundation preferences lie, and she also can’t put this stuff down. “Without exaggeration, I have used this formula almost every single day since it showed up at my door. That’s three full months of near-absolute foundation devotion — which is major for me, considering I get paid to switch up my routine,” she says. 

Glynn can also attest to Revealer’s staying power. “Its satin finish adds just enough glow to my skin, and it somehow never settles into the patchy corners by my nose that typically call for a touch-up midday,” she explains. What’s more: she can use this for full glamour on nights she goes out, yet, “I can even tap some onto blemishes and my redness-prone areas on no makeup-makeup days.” She is dreading the day her bottles dries up.
