About Estée Lauder Futurist
Estée Lauder is one of the original American beauty brands, founded in 1946 by Estée and Joseph Lauder in New York. The Futurist range is the brand's modern complexion line, designed around radiant skin-like finishes and SPF protection. Futurist Hydra Rescue is the line's hydration pillar — formulated for skin that needs comfort, moisture and protection alongside coverage.
Key features
- 12-hour luminous glow — designed to hold a radiant finish through a full day.
- Broad-spectrum SPF45 — high UV protection built into daily makeup.
- IonCharged Water Complex — Estée Lauder's signature hydration technology.
- Probiotic technology and chia seed extract — support a healthy-looking skin barrier and instant hydration.
- Antioxidant complex — helps protect against pollution and environmental stress.
- Soothes visible redness over time with regular use.

Shade — 6W1 Sandalwood
6W1 Sandalwood is a medium-deep beige with warm-yellow undertones — designed for medium-deep skin tones where the natural undertone reads more golden than pink. Sits in the warmer side of the brand's 28-shade range.
Who it's for
Best suited to medium-deep complexions with warm undertones looking for a hydrating daily foundation that doubles as a sun-protection step. The skincare-led formula is most rewarding on normal-to-dry and combination skin; oilier skin types may want to set with powder. A useful all-rounder for those who want one product to handle moisturiser, makeup and SPF.
How to use
- Shake the bottle gently before use.
- Dispense a pea-sized amount onto the back of the hand.
- Apply across the centre of the face — forehead, nose, cheeks, chin — and blend outwards using fingers, a foundation brush or a damp sponge.
- Build a second sheer layer over any areas needing more coverage.
- Set lightly with powder through the T-zone for longer wear if desired.
- For extended sun exposure, reapply a separate sunscreen as needed.
