GIORGIO ARMANI LUMINOUS SILK FOUNDATION

GIORGIO ARMANI LUMINOUS SILK FOUNDATION.. REVIEW, SWATCHES, AND PHOTOS

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation with $59 in 1oz(30ml) its expensive foundation, but worth it for me. Its long lasting, control the oil, flawless finish, and weightless. This is a great foundation!

InStyle Best Beauty Buy 2011

I'm NC 25-30 on MAC, i tried shade #5.5 beige (too pink), #5.75 warm beige (too yellow), #5 light beige (match for my skintone)
i have swatched side by side #5.75 and #5, in my hand #5 ligther than my skin



my bare skin

after 1hr(outdoor, with flash)


after 1hr(outdoor, w/o flash)

just need 2 pumps





COVERAGE: 
medium to full, it gives flawless coverage that does not look cakey, 
to get fuller coverage, you can use flat top brush (sigma F80 or EDM flat top), for
sheerer coverage, you can use sponge (egg sponge/beauty blender) to apply it.

FINISHING: 
dewy finish, natural luminious like second skin, feels weightless

TEXTURE:
this foundation is silky texture not too runny but glides on perfectly, and very blendable. 

STAYING POWER: 
from 5am-2am, i just need 3times to blot, (i use monistat primer underneath), doesn't melt off, crease, and cakey
after 8hrs (indoor, w/o flash, no touch up/blot)





after 8hrs (indoor, with flash, no touch up/blot)

I'm definitely adding this to my list of favorite foundations, recommend this foundation who wants to find luminous, weightless, and natural foundation.

MAC SUMMER ROSE BEAUTY POWDER

MAC SUMMER ROSE BEAUTY POWDER FROM MAC A ROSE ROMANCE COLLECTION 



MAC summer rose beauty powder from MAC A ROSE ROMANCE COLLECTION 2009
is violet pink with pearl


this beauty powder size is 11gr, its quite big for a blush, it bigger than MAC blush


I love the design and the color is great, the texture is very smooth. Comes with pretty rose embossment


this is sheer, but i used E.L.F studio complexion brush and turn out pigmented, only need two layers to swipe. Its the perfect rosey pink blush




MAC summer rose is a gorgeous blush, its a good blush for anyone to have in their collection pink blush. It gives radiant and natural looks, and successful showing up on my skin.


Unfortunately its a limited edition beauty powder :(
