Luminous Silk - Fondotinta liquido luminosità naturale

Blurs and feels light

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This luminous foundation has a nice light/medium coverage, that can be built up with a second coat. It has a blurring effect on the skin adding a slight filter like quality when applied, and feels very light on the skin. The glass bottle is thick and feels luxurious. It has a pleasant skincare like scent, reminds me of some thicker moisturizer brands. Great wide range of colors.

A well-rounder

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I must be the last person on earth to try this foundation…it was worth the wait! This was a near perfect match to my summer skin tone - I’ve been using it every day since it arrived and I’m obsessed! I’m sensitive to smells but this has a very light scent - it’s not off putting in the least. The shade range is pretty extensive (my moms a light olive and really struggles to find close matches; she found a good match with this brand!), especially compared to other well-known brands. The coverage is medium and it really shines here - I typically stick to light-medium coverage and this does a great job at both. I can apply a light layer for grocery runs or a heavier layer when I’m going out and it excels in both regards, especially how natural and “like me” it looks! I’m overall extremely pleased with this foundation and it’s been able to perform well, regardless how I decide to apply (typically fingers or a beauty blender) - this is a great, solid purchase!

My all-time Favorite

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] This is my first time using Armani Beauty and I am impressed! Beautiful coverage and blends perfectly with my skin tone. I love the pump that keeps the makeup clean and also dispenses just the right amount. I am very happy with this foundation. It’s the best match I think I’ve ever had. I will be buying this one again!

Great Coverage

I received this product in exchange for my honest review. I really love this product! It's super easy to apply. It's lightweight and blends really well. It has great coverage, and the finished look is incredible. I thought the color was going to be slightly off, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much it matched my skin tone. I would definitely buy this again and recommend it as well!

10 years of this and will FOREVER repurchase!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I’ve gone through 4+ bottles of this foundation in various shades! As my go-to foundation, I always have summer and winter shades on hand. (Photo is winter shade but finish and texture is same across shades) Armani Luminous Silk worked well for me when I was younger with oily skin (finish is more satin and skin-like than dewy) and it’s still beautiful on the skin now that my skin has gotten a little drier over the years. There’s good reason for it being so popular with makeup artists and celebrities since the early 2000s when it was being mentioned in so many fashion/beauty magazines as being a “cult favorite”. I like to try different makeup products but I always come back to this foundation. It looks great in-person, for photography, with or without powder, layers well to cover pigmentation and redness, and lasts through the day with my go-to setting spray. You can see in my before and after photos that one layer evens out the skin noticeably but doesn’t look or feel heavy. I usually add another layer and it builds nicely without looking cakey. Rather than being very luminous I find it to be more of a natural satin skin finish. Even though I have things I want fuller coverage for, I find that Luminous Silk (a layer or two) paired with a spot concealer looks far better than layering on a thicker foundation. My photo with the foundation on has no primer, powder, or other additional products. This is as close to the perfect foundation I’ve experienced (of the many I’ve tried in 10 or so years since I first started playing with makeup) and I will always be repurchasing it! One thing to note is that the undertones and shades of this range can be a little hard to navigate and I definitely recommend going to get color matched. I used a couple bottles of a shade that looked like a good color match but eventually found THE PERFECT color match thanks to actually swatching a broader range of the shades to my skin.

so good

soooo gorgeous and the formula is amazing. I’m buying a full one soon and getting the concealer to go with it. Actually amazing and best foundation I’ve ever used

My Perfect Shade! New Must Have!

This foundation is literally my perfect shade! Normally, I have to mix shades to get the correct tone but this was a perfect match. It’s full coverage without feeling heavy on your skin and it blends beautifully.

Don’t buy

I hated this no matter what way I applied it! It went on horrible and looked dried in some spots.

Amazing Foundation!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] I am fairly light skinned and this foundation was about 2-3 shades darker than my skin tone. I wasn't sure if it would look good but I was pretty impressed after applying it. I used a little bit, which goes a long way, and it blended in nicely. It gave me a natural glow and made it look as though I had a little bit of a natural tan. I would highly recommend this foundation!

Must Have For Mature Skin

This is the BEST foundation for mature skin. Actually, this is great for all skin types, but I'm in my 60's and have looked high and low for the perfect foundation, and this is it. It gives my skin a natural look without looking greasy, and it doesn't accentuate fine lines and wrinkles. It really looks like your skin, but better. I purchased it according to the recommended color, and 4 is perfect for me for winter. I kept the 4 for winter and purchased the 4.5 for summer. I'm thrilled!!!

A cult classic for a reason!

[I received this product in exchange for my honest review] The Luminous Silk Foundation by Giorgio Armani is pure magic in a bottle. It melts into the skin like a second layer, delivering that lit-from-within glow without ever feeling heavy or cakey. The coverage is perfectly buildable—from a sheer wash to a more polished finish—while still letting your skin look like skin. I love how it smooths, evens, and brightens with zero effort, and the silky texture makes it a dream to apply. Whether I’m heading to a meeting or out for the evening, this is the foundation I trust for a luminous, flawless look every single time. A luxury staple that’s absolutely worth it.

Must have for me

Started using this product a few years ago. Really love the way it feels on my skin. Because it’s build able, it helps cover some sun damage!
