Hi Darlings, today’s post is going to be the review and swatches of the Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder Foundation.
If you know me, you’d know I love a lightweight / glowy foundation and this by Charlotte Tilbury was definitely calling my name, so once I’ve run out of the ones I had laying around I decided to give it a go.
It comes in only 10 shades, but Charlotte is expanding her colour range in other products so hopefully she’ll expand this too, I have the shade Fair 3 and it’s a perfect match for me.
You can buy it from Sephora for 46$, I got it for 15% off and if you consider that the bottle contains 40ml of product when the standard foundation size is 30ml, I think the price is quite fair, for an expensive foundation that is.
PACKAGING
The bottle is made of plastic and it is a squeeze tub. I love it, I think that although is less fancy than usual is still incredibly beautiful.
I like that is travel-friendly and clumsy proof, I think that’s why it’s less expensive than usual.
FORMULA
The formula is quite thin and runny, it feels like water, you have to shake it before applying it.
It has light coverage but it’s buildable. The finish is glowy and looks very smooth on the skin. The best part is that despite being so luminous is actually dry on the face and it doesn’t create that greasy feeling.
Something that really impressed me is how it glides on the skin, it looks so natural on but my face looks incredibly smooth and poreless but like I’m not wearing anything.
EFFECT
It honestly looks incredible on, it doesn’t have much coverage but you can see how radiant makes my skin look.
It looks like you are wearing a filter. I have combination skin and I love it but if you are oily it might be too much.
APPLICATION
My favourite way to apply it’s dabbing it with my fingers on the face and then blend it with a damp sponge or a stiff brush, I find that it makes the foundation mesh with the skin beautifully.
SWATCH
LASTING POWER
This foundation lasts for 5 hours without blotting, which is good for me.
RATINGS:
- Colour: 10/10
- Longevity: 9/10
- Application: 10/10
- Formula: 10/10
- Pigmentation: 9/10
- Packaging: 9/10
GRADE: A+
I really like this foundation, I love it for day to day life. It’s easy to wear and it doesn’t look like you are wearing anything. I like the glowy finish and sheer coverage. I also like the packaging as it makes it easy to carry around. The shade is a perfect match for me and it’s all I’ve been wearing since I got it.

Honestly if you like glowy stuff, you’ll love it!
It’s a bummer that it only comes in 10 shades, especially considering how highly you rated it. I’ll try my luck and see if my shade is one of the ten.
The shade are quite different so you might be able to find it, it’s honestly so good!
I can see why you like the foundation. It seems to work really well and looks fantastic on you.
It’s amazing!
Sounds like wonderful foundation. I have been looking for a good one. What one would u recommend for dry sensitive skin??
This will definitely work as it’s very luminous and not drying at all. Another one of my faves that works on almost everyone is the Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua
Such a difference! Incredible 😀
Thank you 💕
Great review.. I love a lightweight foundation!

OK, I think I need this one in my life! I’m trying to keep my base collection very small and edited, but next time I’m in the market I will absolutely keep this one in mind!
You’ll love it! So dewy
I’ve heard this was amazing for years, but you’ve certainly sold me on it!
Let me know if you get it! X
Of course, and I’d write about it too!
