Celebrities are always perfectly polished for red carpet events, supported by teams of makeup and skincare experts to ensure they look their best. But one high-street product has become something of a secret weapon for achieving that same red-carpet-worthy glow—and it's currently on sale for under £10. For glowing, radiant skin. Right now, Boots is offering a special discount, with shoppers able to pick it up for £8.99, down from £10.99. There's also a three-for-two deal across all Max Factor products. Sophie's makeup artist - and sister - Georgia used the Glow Framer to create her luminous red carpet look for the premiere of The Roses. The product has been praised for delivering a sun-kissed, radiant complexion without the need for multiple layers of makeup. The Max Factor Glow Framer is described as weightless and blendable, with a hint of shimmer that gives a soft, bronzed effect. Suitable for all skin tones, it comes in six shades and can be applied all over the face for an all-round glow or targeted to highlight and contour. For those looking for alternatives, LookFantastic stocks the ICONIC London Instant Sunshine Bronzing Drops (13ml.) for £22, boasting a 4.4-star rating. The drops feature a clickable dispenser for precise application and a boost of luminosity, according to The Mirror. Alternatively, John Lewis offers the Lumene Invisible Illumination Instant Glow Fresh Skin Tint for £36. Described as having a 'fresh, gel-like texture', it promises up to 24-hour hydration, leaving skin feeling smooth and refreshed. Habboo took to Instagram to share her love for Glow Framer, writing: “This is everything I love in a product. I've used this all summer since I first tried it, and I love it so much." Other influencers have echoed her praise. Beauty creator Mariam Musa said: "It melts into the skin, feels weightless and leaves me looking radiant in seconds. It's perfect for those on-the-go days.” The Glow Framer collection has also earned strong customer feedback on Boots' website, averaging 4.4 stars . Shoppers have praised its lightweight texture, natural finish, and the warmth it adds without appearing orange or shiny. One reviewer wrote: “I’m loving the glow this gives my skin.” Another said: "So natural-looking on the skin. The texture is lightweight and blends easily without feeling heavy or greasy. It gives warmth and glow without looking too orange.” However, some reviewers had minor critiques, such as: “Tested this all over the face and in targeted areas — I prefer all-over application. It gives a lovely glow and evens out skin tone. The packaging doesn't really stand out, though." Another added: “It's a really good highlighter, especially for those who like a natural look. The shade wasn't quite right for me, but I'd recommend it to lighter skin tones." Overall, reviews remain overwhelmingly positive , with one summing it up perfectly: “A lovely lightweight tint that gives a sheer, radiant glow to the skin."
