Confession: I used to skip primer entirely. Every single one I tried either felt heavy, made me break out or did nothing for my makeup. Then I met LANEIGE Glowy Makeup Serum, and it made me rethink everything. Now, it’s the first thing I reach for when I want my skin to look like it’s been kissed by the skincare gods, whether I’m going for a full beat or a barely-there vibe.
LANEIGE Glowy Makeup Serum, $32
This serum is lightweight, hydrating and leaves your skin with a subtle glow that screams “healthy” instead of “sparkly.” It’s the perfect base for makeup, creating a smooth, plump canvas while keeping dryness and cakiness at bay. And the best part? It doesn’t clog my pores or cause breakouts — a true unicorn in the primer world.
What sets it apart is its versatility. The serum is infused with diamond mineral powder (hello, radiance) and light oils that give your skin a dewy finish without feeling greasy. It also helps your makeup stay put all day — no sliding, no patchiness. And on no-makeup days, I just wear it on its own for that effortless, “I woke up like this” glow.
The reviews agree with me, too. One Amazon user wrote that it, “Looks amazing in daily face moisturizer on days you don’t wear foundation and just use concealer.” While another said, “[It] makes my skin feel silky and look like it’s glowing.” I’ve even had friends ask me what I’m using because my skin looks that good — and honestly, it feels nice to be that friend with the beauty tip.
Whether you’re getting ready for a holiday party, heading to work or just lounging in sweats, the LANEIGE Glowy Makeup Serum is a total win. It’s your skin’s new BFF for luminous, hydrated vibes — and it won’t let you down. Trust me, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it.
