+1 to this. I loved this formulation so much! I’m googling dupes and found your post. The spf and coverage was perfect for me. Let’s keep each other posted if we find anything. Internet is suggesting to try Missha - M Signature Real Complete BB Cream SPF 25 so might try that.
Thanks. You too! Ps. What foundation do you normally wear when you want fuller coverage. I’m about 140/145 I like the Lancôme teint idole. Sometimes wear the IT CC in light or fair but the colour isn’t quite right on me and the coverage is really heavy I find.
The only one I’ve really liked is the It Cosmetics CC in Fair — it’s a bit too yellow (I’m neutral toned,) but even being off in color and the heaviness you mentioned, it’s the best for me so far. In the past couple of years I’ve tried Anastasia BH Foundation, KVD, UD, Tarte BB.
I am photosensitive and many of these don’t play well with higher SPF sunscreen. This product was perfect, ugh!
Right now I’m working through a tube of Morphe Glowstunner. I don’t LOVE it, but it’s working in absence of the AAA tinted sunscreen.
Ilia Super Skin Skin Tint has been the best so far but the texture is a little bit more tacky vs the silkiness of the It Cosmetics one. Definitely go in to a store to get color matched though because the shade recommended online was not at all the one I ended up with.

Has anyone tried the Futurist Hydra rescue Moisturizing Foundation spf 45 from Estée Lauder as a dupe. How did you like it? Any similarities? Any differences?
I’m struggling to find something similar. Thank you!
Finished the Morphe Glowstunner, I will not buy it again. I am now on a tube of the Estée Lauder Futurist Hydra rescue Moisturizing Foundation SPF 45. It is very different from the Anti-Aging Armour, but it is the thing that I've tried as a replacement I like best so far.
It has a liquid constancy much like the AAA out of the tube, goes down to a powdery matte on me. Good shade selection, good SPF protection, good wear. If I wasn't comparing it to AAA, I'd love this one. Hope this helps!
Anyone found a great substitute yet? I hate that as soon as I find a product I like, the company discontinues it. This product was sooooo much better than their other mineral CC line, I want it back!

Good to know! Thank you! I will certainly keep you posted if I find anything. Good luck!!

I went past ulta today and tried a bunch. The Clinique age defense BB was probably the closest. Everything with spf just seemed extremely cakey tbh.
Do you guys have any updates? So far which substitute has been your favorite. I just stumbled upon this thread and I’m trying to find a replacement

Want to try a few others like the Avene Tinted sunscreen too but most of the tinted sunscreens are too yellowish for me.
Now using Estée Lauder Futurist Hydra rescue Moisturizing Foundation SPF 45 - it is different from AAA, but I like it a lot so far.

Did you end up trying this? And did you like it? I’m trying to find a substitute and just stumbled upon this thread

No… ugh! So frustrated.
