Do your best not to observe: any bruising around the eye. Observe: problem areas around the nose and apples of the cheeks, where we can see some localised redness. These photos were taken in natural (and notoriously unflattering) daylight with no flash, no primer, no powder and no concealer. I figure, after three years, I’m finally qualified to write this review. I figured it would be a good idea to compare Lasting and Luminous because they’re both awesome but hopefully, this would provide some clarity as to why I’ve found Lasting Silk to be awesome-er. The exception is Maestro, which entirely missed the boat (my boat, anyway).
I don’t pretend to fully understand the science behind it but all I can say is: these offer that soft focus, imperfection-blurring effect that is so sought after. What sets Armani bases apart from other foundations is that they’ve perfected the concept of light bouncing pigment. I’ve been using the latter religiously for three years and I think it’s perfect in almost every way, the fact that I continue to try other options is a matter of insanity. Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk was my holy grail foundation for yonks… until I discovered Armani Lasting Silk. I had some sort of strange anxiety about writing this review – how could I convey the magic of my holy grail foundation? What if my vocabulary fails me? What if this becomes a novel in which I confuse the crap out of everyone? Beauty-blogger-first-world-problems (BBFWP).
