Add Page Six on Google While Bethenny Frankel’s got plenty of beauty brand partnerships on the books, this week she went back to her roots with an organic drugstore discovery video.

She tried out CoverGirl Simply Ageless Skin Perfector Essence while trying to film a “GRWM” — but the shoot quickly turned into a rave review of the product.

“I did not have high hopes for this,” Frankel admitted, before declaring the lightweight coverage “f—king phenomenal.”

“It felt like I was putting hydration on my face,” said the star, who recently returned from a dust-filled desert trip for Burning Man.

While she only used a “dime-sized” drop of the stuff, she found it covered her whole face and gave her a “thin veil of coverage.”

“CoverGirl, wow did you shake me,” she added in the seemingly unsponsored clip. “I love the discoveries.”

Frankel kept the praise coming in a second TikTok last week, rounding up her favorite “nothing but something makeup” for a natural, minimalist look.

Several Amazon reviewers love the foundation, too, with one calling it “my daily go-to” and saying it “doesn’t settle in wrinkles.”

AMAZON $10.97 It’s not Frankel’s first time finding a new favorite from CoverGirl; she recently said the TruBlend Sun & Sculpt Bronzing Glow Serum is “as good as the expensive ones” with “not an iota of sacrifice.”

“They last, in my opinion, six to eight days … shook!”

“These remind me of my childhood, they’re the best.”
