One of the most infamous products loved by most
bloggers is the Giorgio Armani
Luminous Silk foundation. It was on my shopping list for the longest
part of about 10 months (crazy, I know) until i finally bit the bullet and
purchased it whilst in Central London with a friend.
The foundation is really nice and dewy and gives a your
skin but better look as it evens out the skin tone and gives a natural and
healthy silky finish. It has a sheer coverage but can be built up to a medium
coverage without looking cakey, if applied in thin layers. There are 21
shades available, ranging from the palest of shades to the darkest. I have
shade 14 which is slightly too dark as I got colour matched in the summer when
I was slightly darker, however I do still use it in the winter to naturally
contour my face.
This foundation is suitable for all skin types, even if
you have dry skin. I have combination skin (so dry in some areas) and I don’t
find the foundation to enhance any dry areas. I love the packaging, which
is simple, sleek and sophisticated. It’s an odd shaped bottle, a hybrid between
an oval and a circle with a shiny black lid with the logo embossed.
I would definitely recommend this foundation as there’s
nothing I can fault other than the price (£35) although I’m probably going to
end up purchasing another shade for when I’m slightly lighter. Have you tried
this foundation? What do you think about it?
