Glow-Boosting Silky Foundations

Armani Beauty Reformulates Its Signature Luminous Silk Foundation

Armani Beauty has reformulated its signature Luminous Silk Foundation. Priced at $85, this liquid foundation delivers medium coverage and a weightless, silk-like finish.

The original Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation has long held iconic status among makeup professionals and consumers because of its multi-functional benefits. The blend incorporates niacinamide, glycerin, and Mediterranean flower extracts to deliver twenty-four-hour hydration and clinically measured improvements in skin luminosity and texture within fourteen days.

Armani Beauty also offers the Luminous Silk Foundation in 44 variants to cater to different complexions. The variety is achieved through a six-pigment blending system that adds ultramarine blue to olive and deep complexions for truer undertone matching. The luxe brand maintains that the product is also suitable for all skin types.
