The New Skincare-Makeup Hybrid Collection That Really Works
Why Everyone Loves Estée Lauder’s Futurist Range…
Launched in 2020, the Futurist line was created to merge illuminating make-up with hydrating skincare. Three years on, it remains one of the most popular hybrid ranges on the market thanks to its impressive coverage and sheer, silky textures that are both breathable and buildable.
The range also features super-adhesive pigments and polymers in its formulations, which is what gives the make-up such a lightweight, bouncy finish. The products are also clinically proven to deliver immediate hydration that lasts up to 24 hours.
Its Innovative Formulas Explained…
Benefiting from Estée Lauder’s clever IonCharged Water and probiotic technology, the Futurist range addresses several skin concerns at once. Not only do the formulas soothe visible redness and irritation, they also seal in hydration and protect against pollution with a hefty dose of antioxidants.
You’ll also find omega-3 fatty acids in there to plump skin and keep it looking smooth and feeling supple. Everything has been carefully created to ensure 12-hour wear, too – so don’t expect creases or streaky make-up as the day wears on. Plus, everything is ophthalmologist and dermatologist tested, so even the most sensitive of skin – and eye – types can use the products with confidence.
Now, with three new skin-caring additions to the collection, Futurist is even more radiance-enhancing than before. Introducing NEW SkinTint Serum SPF 20, NEW Peptide-Power Serum Primer and NEW Soft Touch Brightening Skincealer – all of which deliver serious skincare benefits that last long after your makeup has been removed.
The Newest Additions…
SkinTint Serum SPF20 Foundation SPF20, £49
This has all the qualities of a breathable, buildable foundation, but with the texture of a sheer, silky serum. It immediately gives skin a luminous, healthy glow, thanks to added botanical oils which quench skin and provides a hefty dose of moisture. The latter also give the formula a nice slip, meaning it glides over the skin smoothly for a flawless blend.
Oils included, the formula is made up of 85% skincare ingredients – including glycerine, moisture saccharides and soft clay cocoons – which offer hydration and nourishment long after you’ve removed the SkinTint. There are 29 shades to choose from too, with all skin and undertones covered. The inclusion of SPF and blue light protection are the cherries on top.
Fast facts…
• Free from silicones, fragrance, mineral oils and drying alcohols
• No synthetic colours or sulfates
• Promises all day wear with no creasing or settling into fine lines
• Sweat and humidity resistant
• Skin tone looks more even and skin feels softer to the touch

Peptide-Power Serum Primer, £39
A first of its kind, this new serum-primer hybrid is full of skin-loving ingredients – think hyaluronic acid and vitamin E – which provide instant hydration to calm and smooth your skin. The formula works hard to boost your collagen and elastin levels for firmer-looking skin, too – thanks to the high levels of skin-strengthening peptides inside. The silky texture feels amazing as you apply it. Quick to absorb, you don’t have to spend time massaging this in and make-up glides on easily over the top and stays put for hours. The glow that breathes through is unrivalled – think natural and fresh without any OTT shimmer.
Fast Facts…
• Boosts radiance both short and long-term
• Keeps skin hydrated and stimulates collagen production for better tone
• Smooths the look of fine lines and wrinkles with regular use
• Keeps make-up fresh, smooth and ensures it lasts the day without creasing

Soft Touch Brightening Skincealer, £33
This supercharged formula doesn’t just brighten dark circles. The added skincare ingredients will also improve the look and feel of this delicate area. There’s plenty of vitamin C in there to smooth uneven tone and brighten discolouration, while the brand’s HydraLast Complex pumps skin full of different levels of hyaluronic acid for maximum hydration.
Finally, the tri-firming complex boosts skin’s natural collagen levels for a firmer, tauter appearance. As for the coverage, like everything in the Futurist line, you can expect it to be sheer and buildable with a smooth, velvety consistency that’s satisfying to apply. The brush is clever, too – we love the doe-foot applicator which mimics a fingertip to hug all contours of your face.
Fast facts…
• Expect improved hydration and radiance
• Skin looks firmer under the eye and fine lines and dark circles look reduced
• Under eyes appear more radiant, while crepiness looks reduced
• Skin looks smoother under the eyes
