![]() ![]() As it's not billed as a super long-wearing foundation, I thought this was pretty good going. ![]() The overall effect isn’t quite as perfect as when it was first applied, as is the case with lots of foundations, but for the most part, it stayed in place without the assistance of a setting spray. How about after a day of wear?īy the end of a full day of wearing the foundation, I found that Luminous Silk still looks pretty great. You’ll definitely want a separate concealer to hand if, like me at the time of writing, you happen to be contending with the mother of all spots. Despite its medium coverage, for the most part, skin looks flawless, but in a healthy and radiant kind of way rather than ultra smooth and matte because of a heavier base. Once applied, the best way that I can describe Luminous Silk’s look on the skin is like a freshly opened, untouched pack of butter – completely smooth, slightly matte, slightly sheeny. I found that two pumps were more than enough to get good coverage. The coverage is medium and buildable – Meghan Markle famously said that she liked that it allowed her freckles to peek through – and it has a skin-like finish, which is worth bearing in mind if you prefer something very heavy duty and matte (if so, our Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation review may be of interest) Its consistency also stretches quite far, so it’s possible to apply a very small amount for everyday wear and build up when you need more coverage, say, for a special occasion. This aligns it with skincare-skewed bases such as the best serum foundations in terms of glow and also means it doesn’t feel at all heavy on the skin. What makes Armani’s Luminous Silk formula so unique is its patented micro-fil technology, which enables the pigments to sit perfectly on the skin and help the foundation strike that all-important balance between healthy luminosity and the mattifying powers of setting powder. The formula also contains glycerin, but very dry skin types might find that they need a base with more moisturizing ingredients. The foundation formulaĭespite having “luminous” in the name and a hint of dewiness to the finish, this foundation is actually both oil-free and non-comedogenic (the technical term for ingredients that won’t clog pores), making it a contender as one of the best foundations for oily skin that isn’t super matte. There's not a lot else to say about it here, because its magic really lies with the product inside the bottle. ingredientsĪqua / Water, Cyclopentasiloxane, Glycerin, Isododecane, Alcohol Denat., Polyglyceryl-4 Isostearate, Cetyl Peg/Ppg-10/1 Dimethicone, Hexyl Laurate, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, Disteardimonium Hectorite, Phenoxyethanol, Acetylated Glycol Stearate, Magnesium Sulfate, Peg-10 Dimethicone, Trihydroxystearin, Cellulose Gum, Nylon-12, Limonene, Benzyl Salicylate, Benzyl Alcohol, Linalool, Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-T-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate, Isobutane, Diphenyl Dimethicone, Acrylonitrile/Methyl Methacrylate/Vinylidene Chloridecopolymer, Parfum / Fragrance, Disodium Stearoyl Glutamate, Methylparaben, Butylphenyl Methylpropional, Aluminum Hydroxide, Hexyl Cinnamal.Similar to most liquid foundations, the foundation formula is dispensed by a handy pump, which is nice and hygienic, keeps mess to a minimum, and helps you to avoid over-use.
