Catrice Soft Glam Filter Fluid Review
I tried the Catrice Soft Glam Filter Fluid and it really delivers on its promise. The lightweight formula gives a natural-looking glow that feels comfortable all day. It blends seamlessly and stays in place, so I can go from a casual coffee date to a night out without needing to touch up my makeup. I've worn it for hours and it still looks great - no cakey feeling or oily residue. For a budget-friendly option, this filter fluid is a total winner in my book.

Kick Off Summer Glow with This Fluid
summarizeEditor's Summary
I tried Catrice’s new radiant fluid this summer, and honestly it gave me the sun‑kissed glow I was after. The feather‑light formula blends like a dream, the shade 02 nails a warm tan, and the price is a steal for the finish. It stayed put through a beach day, added a subtle radiance without any glitter, and feels like a second skin. If you want a warm, dewy look that isn’t heavy, this fluid could become your go‑to.

I’m all about radiant skin, so when I saw this fluid on the shelf at my favorite store, I grabbed it right away.
Choosing the shade was a no‑brainer—02 is perfect for me. Summer’s here, it pairs beautifully with a tan, and I love foundations that give a warm, sunny glow.
This fluid is modeled after Charlotte Tilbury’s Hollywood filter, and the brush looks just like the original.
The fluid itself feels super lightweight
Blend it in and you get a soft, sun‑kissed tint with a nice sheen—no chunky glitter in sight.
The first thing I did when I got home was think, “more glow never hurts,” and I slathered it all over my face.
That wasn’t the smartest move—it highlighted every pore. It’s better to treat it like any decent product: dab it on the spots you want to highlight. The site says you can use it as an all‑over primer, but I’m already a pro at the sparkle game.
When you apply it more carefully, you get a truly delicate, beautiful glow.
While wearing it, I realized I love the effect on my forehead.
I don’t have Botox, but I’m digging the smooth, mirror‑like finish up there. I swipe the fluid across the front‑temple area and love the result.
The fluid cost me 510 rubles after all the discounts. I think that’s a great price—definitely worth trying this budget‑friendly option this summer.
live_helpFeatured FAQ
What skin types is Catrice's radiant fluid best for?
It's really happiest on normal to dry skin because the lightweight formula adds a bit of moisture and a soft glow. If you've got oily skin, a light dusting of translucent powder will keep the shine in check.
How does the coverage compare to a traditional liquid foundation?
Think medium, buildable coverage – lighter than a full‑coverage foundation but more coverage than a tinted moisturizer. You can layer it for extra opacity without it caking.
Is the shade 02 suitable for all skin tones?
Shade 02 is aimed at light‑to‑medium skin with warm undertones. If you're deeper, you might need to mix in a darker shade to get a perfect match.
Can I use the fluid as a highlighter?
Absolutely! Its luminous finish works great as a cream highlighter on cheekbones, brow bones, or the inner corner of the eye for an extra pop.
How long does the product last after opening?
Keep it tightly sealed and it'll stay fresh for about a year. Just make sure the cap's screwed on tight after each use so it doesn't dry out.
Does the fluid contain any fragrance or irritants?
It has a light, pleasant scent and is free from parabens and sulfates. If you have super‑sensitive skin, do a quick patch test first.
Is the product cruelty‑free?
Yep – Catrice says the fluid is cruelty‑free and isn’t tested on animals.
Can I apply the fluid with a sponge instead of a brush?
Sure thing. A damp beauty sponge gives an even smoother, airbrushed look and helps the product melt into the skin.
How does the fluid hold up in hot, humid weather?
It stays radiant for a few hours, but in extreme humidity you might want a light setting powder to lock the glow in place.
What is the return policy if I don't like the shade?
Most retailers let you return or exchange unopened items within 30 days. Check the specific store’s policy before you buy.
