Pop icon Katy Perry has taken her star power to new heights, joining the first all-female space crew on board a Blue Origin space mission. She mentioned in an Elle interview: "Space is going to finally be glam. Let me tell you something. If I could take glam up with me, I would do that."
True to her word, on April 14, Katy boarded the Blue Origin rocket with a fully face of glam ready to make the historic trip. Her makeup artist, Alexandra French, took to Instagram writing: "First ever glam team for space! We made history!" alongside a sneak peek of the products she used on the Firework singer's face.

The beloved L'OreÌal Paris Infallible Foundation is already known for its reasonable price tag of £13.99, but it's now an even bigger bargain after it was slashed to £9.79 during LookFantastic's Easter sale. With a waterproof, transfer-resistant formula providing a natural, lasting finish for an impressive 32 hours, it's ready to suit any skin tone with 27 shades available.
LookFantastic customers are absolutely loving the budget-friendly foundation. One shopper shared their satisfaction: "Excellent coverage and easy to apply and blend. Long lasting too."
Another highlighted its value for money, commenting: "This is such a good affordable foundation. It's a holy grail! Such good coverage and really long lasting."

However, not everyone was completely sold, with one customer pointing out: "Good, but doesn't wear well throughout the day. Also felt like it made my skin look a little dry. I use it on a casual day when I'm just out for a few hours though and it helps me save my more expensive ones for nights/long days out."
Yet another chimed in with high praise: "I've been using this foundation for 2 years now. Such a brilliant price and very good coverage that lasts all day long."
For those who desire a wider range of shades and don't mind spending a bit more, the Fenty Beauty Pro Filt'r Soft Matte Longwear Foundation is another excellent option for long-lasting wear. At £35, this foundation boasts an oil-free formula and comes in 50 different shades, guaranteeing an instantly smooth, pore-diffused, shine-free finish that's buildable from medium to full coverage, reports the Mirror.
