TV and radio presenter Lisa Snowdon has shared the skincare and make-up duo she swears by for ‘dewy, glowy, glass-like skin’, loving the effect it gives ‘more mature’ skin like hers
We’ve been seriously lusting after Lisa Snowdon’s beauty recommendations recently. After previously sharing some impressive results of a wrinkle-smoothing neck serum she’d been loving, the TV and radio presenter has just dropped her simple two-product routine for ‘easy, radiant glass skin’ – and we can’t wait to try it ourselves.
In a sponsored Reel posted to her Instagram channel, Lisa writes how, at the age of 53, “having more mature skin I am mindful when using any kind of coverage or make-up as it takes all the glow out of my skin, looks heavy and sometimes cakey.” Luckily, however, she says she’s found the perfect product combination to do just that, both from bestselling skin and make-up brand Rodial.

Lisa starts by applying Rodial’s Soft Focus Glow Drops, £75, to her skin, patting a couple of drops into her skin over her daily SPF – and the glow is immediate to see.
This radiance-boosting priming serum contains super-tiny mica particles to give a very subtle gleam to the skin, and can be used on their own or mixed into foundation. “It’s the most gorgeous, glowy, illuminating primer,” Lisa says in the video.
She then follows the Glow Drops with the Rodial Glass Tint Tinted Moisturiser, which is currently reduced from £45 to £31.50, and which Lisa says gives you “nice even skin but it’s not thick and cakey”. She proceeds to buff it into the skin with a wide-bristled brush, revealing a more even – but still very glowy complexion.
Rodial Glass Tint comes in six shades on the Rodial website (Lisa says as she’s wearing fake tan her current shade is a mix of St Bart’s and Rio), but you’ll currently find it cheapest on Lookfantastic, down to £31.50 – although there are currently only in three shades in stock.
Lisa’s followers were quick to complement the star’s complexion, with one saying, “I need this in my life!” and another calling this tinted moisturiser “great for menopausal skin”. One person even remarked that they’d skip the skin tint, writing, “I thought you looked best with just the drops. You have amazing skin!”
Skin tints and tinted moisturisers are trending at the moment, no doubt due to the sunny weather, when people often want to swicth out their thick foundations for something lighter. We’ve rounded up our best tried-and-tested skin tints here, including Milk Makeup, Hourglass and Pixi.
And if you’re after a lightweight facial SPF that disappears into the skin yet still leaves a gorgeous glow, we can’t stop reaching for this one; it even has us skipping foundation.
