LOOKFANTASTIC has reduced the price of the Armani Luminous Silk Foundation to £39.20, a product that has garnered over 2,300 five-star reviews and a 4.6-star overall rating from shoppers. The foundation, available in 44 shades, has been purchased 268 times on the day of writing. Infused with niacinamide, it aims to visibly brighten the complexion, and many reviewers highlight its suitability for mature skin, noting it does not settle into fine lines or wrinkles.
Product Features and Benefits
The newly reformulated foundation offers buildable medium coverage with a featherlight, skin-like finish. It incorporates Armani's Liquid Silk Technology, which visibly brightens and refines skin texture while blurring pores and imperfections. A blend of niacinamide, glycerin, and Mediterranean flower extract provides up to 24 hours of hydration, promoting a naturally lit glow without oiliness. The product layers well over primer and pairs with other complexion products, with claims of lasting up to 24 hours, though shoppers report it holds up particularly well in warm weather.
Customer Reviews
One shopper commented, "Beautiful foundation, love the consistency, the finish and the overall packaging. Think I've found my new go to foundation." Another added, "My favourite foundation for mature skin, the coverage is great even with a little amount, it absorbs beautifully into the skin leaving it flawless and smooth, doesn't go cakey throughout the day and stays put." However, some critiques include a tendency to turn orange over time, even with primer, as noted by one reviewer: "Only criticism is that it can go a little orange after a time even when used with a primer." Another five-star review stated, "I love this foundation. It’s lightweight and does not feel at all heavy on the skin… it does not sink into fine lines. The only downside is the price but it does last me a while." A final review praised it as "Beautiful and light coverage that looks really natural. The easiest foundation to apply that I have ever used, it takes seconds and gives all day coverage."
Alternatives Available
LOOKFANTASTIC also offers the NARS Light Reflecting Foundation for £43.50, available in a wide range of shades. This foundation provides buildable medium coverage with a breathable, skin-like finish and an optical blurring effect. A more affordable option is the Maybelline New York Super Stay Lumi Matte Foundation at Boots for £12.99. One shopper described it as "an absolute game changer," adding, "I no longer have cakey texture and the foundation actually stays put all day."
