If there’s one word to describe Sophie Habboo’s complexion, it’s radiant. The 30-year-old has become somewhat of a beauty muse in the UK, steadily growing a loyal following on social media who are tuned into her product recommendations (one million on Instagram, to be precise). They’re not all expensive buys either, with her latest makeup obsession being an affordable glow-getter that's available to shop in Boots.
Enter: Max Factor’s new Glow Framer. “This is everything I love in a product,” the Made In Chelsea star shared. “I genuinely have used this all summer.” It has red carpet appeal too, with Sophie wearing it under her foundation for The Roses premiere back in August, which she attended with husband Jamie Laing.
Available in six shades, Glow Framer is a bronzing and illuminating tint designed to both contour and highlight – talk about a multitasker. It can be used to both frame and enhance your natural facial features, by layering it under or over makeup to softly contour or wearing it alone as a glowy booster.
The formula is weightless and easy-to-blend, and is infused with soft shimmers and bronzing pigments that melt into skin for a seamless finish. Think of it as a one-stop-shop for achieving a multidimensional glow, or giving yourself a sunkissed look before the cold weather starts to creep in.

Since its release at the start of September, reviews for Max Factor’s latest product have been rolling in. Beauty buffs have praised how it makes their skin look “incredibly smooth” and “blends easily in without ever feeling heavy or sticky”.
And there’s more: “This glow tint is so versatile! I’ve been using it three different ways and it’s become a lovely addition to my makeup routine. On holiday, I wore it all over for a dewy, radiant base. For everyday, I’ve mixed a couple of drops with my usual foundation to add a subtle glow. I’ve also used it as a bronzer and contour by dabbing it along the areas I want to frame. It washes off easily with my regular cleanser and is gentle on my sensitive skin. A little goes a long way and I can see this lasting me ages!”
