When it comes to “no makeup, makeup” looks, few brands consistently hit it out of the park like Kosas. The brand became every beauty editor’s darling with the innovative, and sadly discontinued, Tinted Face Oil. A couple of years later, Kosas reached bonafide cult status with the launch of its Revealer Concealer ($24). Across skin types and generations, users rave about its creamy consistency, natural finish and how it expertly reveals the areas you’re looking to brighten. Plus, Kate Hudson, Hailey Bieber and Kourtney Kardashian belong to the product’s celebrity fan club. Two years later, Kosas cemented Revealer’s legacy by launching its sister product: Revealer Skin-Improving Foundation SPF 25 ($34).
Revealer Foundation comes in 36 shades and is made with several ingredients responsible for its famous “second skin” finish. First are niacinamide and caffeine. The former helps to even out skin tone, while the latter gives skin a boost of energy, leaving your complexion looking brighter. Next, squalane balances and maintains moisture levels, arnica soothes any redness or irritation, hyaluronic acid plumps skin with hydration and peptides help to improve skin texture and elasticity. Finally, mineral, and reef-safe, broad-spectrum SPF 25 adds a layer of protection against sun damage.
Not only does Revealer Foundation’s formula help skin look better over time, but shoppers of all ages say it enhances skin with the “perfect amount of coverage” instantly. “This foundation looks like skin,” says one 40-something shopper. Another commented, “Nothing has ever felt so weightless… or looked so flawless.” A reviewer in their 50s says it “blurs [their] pores, melasma and dark spots beautifully” and finishes with a “nice soft glow.” A 60-something reviewer calls the Revealer Foundation a “blessing” for mature skin. And finally, “Don’t be put off by the youthful package design and young faces. I’m 67, have been using this foundation (and the concealer too) for about four months now and love it. Goes on and blends smoothly, doesn’t get dry.”
