As a shopping writer, I’ve explored countless skincare products, but very few have thrilled me like the Victoria Beckham x Augustinus Bader collaboration. Beckham’s radiant complexion has always been an inspiration, and the buzz around the brand’s The Rich Cream is hard to ignore. It promises luxurious, rich-girl radiance, and I was eager to find out if it lives up to the hype.

Thanks to the brand, I had the opportunity to try the complete lineup: The Rich Cream, The Cell Rejuvenating Illuminator, and The Concealer Pen — and I’ve been using them daily for the last few weeks. With proprietary technology TFC8, Augustinus Bader’s formulas are grounded in over 30 years of research aimed at enhancing cell renewal, refining texture, and deeply nourishing the skin. With a massive celebrity fanbase and over 185 beauty awards, my expectations were incredibly high.

First on my list was The Rich Cream. Now I understand why this moisturizer has become a cult favorite. In the mornings, it absorbed perfectly into my skin, leaving it soft, glowing, and prepped for makeup. At night, I applied a thicker layer and woke up to skin that looked brighter and more radiant, as if I had enjoyed an overnight facial. After just a few days, the improvement was unmistakable; my skin appeared healthier and more luminous than it had in months.

Next, I tried The Cell Rejuvenating Illuminator. I expected good results, but the level of glow it provided was beyond my expectations. Infused with micro-pearl pigments and TFC8, this primer refined my texture, softened imperfections, and created a show-stopping radiance. My skin looked beautifully illuminated and high-end. The anti-aging properties are just an added bonus.

Last but certainly not least is The Concealer Pen, which might be my favorite of the three. Powered by TFC8, acetyl hexapeptide-8, and squalane, it concealed, brightened, and hydrated in one single step. It seamlessly blurred my under-eye bags, redness, and blemishes without creasing or caking. I genuinely believe it melded into my skin better than any other concealer I’ve ever tried. Offered in seven versatile shades, it was creamy, lightweight, and wonderfully buildable — ideal for both minimal makeup days and glamorous looks.

The backstory of this collaboration adds an extra layer of charm. Beckham discovered The Rich Cream through her facialist, Melanie Grant, and became “totally obsessed.” Naturally, she reached out to Professor Augustinus Bader to collaborate and merge the brand’s TFC8 with Beckham’s beauty line to create products that “give you a glow, tighten your skin, and lift.” The outcome? A collection that elegantly combines clean, luxury beauty, resulting in both The Cell Rejuvenating Illuminator and The Concealer Pen.

After thoroughly testing this collection, I can confidently say I’m completely hooked. These formulas are exceptional and effective, and their price reflects this quality. They’ve left my skin feeling soft, luminous, and remarkably polished, giving me that rich mom skin meets Victoria Beckham runway glow. If you’ve been contemplating investing in this line, I assure you, it’s every bit as good as promised.
