When tasked with finding the best of the best in beauty, we often rely on the opinions of experts. Dermatologists, makeup artists and estheticians help us wade through the unending selection of goods, and when a particular item is suggested by professionals more than once, we know that we’ve just stumbled on product gold.

Luminous Silk foundation by Armani Beauty is one product in particular that has been suggested to us by several experts, one of whom called it a “never cakey, lightweight and dewy” foundation that leaves a skin-perfecting, natural-looking finish.
A large part of its popularity probably has to do with the fact that this foundation works well for many skin types, including acne-prone, dry and aging skin.
Due to its oil-free and no-comedogenic formulation, several dermatologists have previously recommended Luminous Silk to HuffPost as a great foundation option for those who are acne-prone but who don’t want the thick and overly mattifying coverage that many blemish-marketed foundations can have.
It has also made the favorites list of multiple makeup artists, who told us that as skin ages, it naturally loses luminosity, becomes more dehydrated and dull and wrinkles become more pronounced. Because of this, makeup artists said that they loves using Luminous Silk on clients with mature skin, as its hydrating and glowy-finish formula has the ability to blur imperfections without settling into fine lines or wrinkles.
Available in 40 shades, this medium-coverage and buildable foundation uses what the brand refers to as “micro-fil technology” to allow color pigments to lay flat for seamless blending and layering. The long-lasting formula also claims to improve the look of irregular skin texture while maintaining that lit-from-within glow.
But it’s not just professional beauty and skin care professionals that Luminous Silk has won over — reviewers love it, too. It’s one of the highest rated products on Sephora with an average 4.4-out-of-five-star rating from almost 3,000 reviewers. Many self-proclaimed fans of the stuff claim that, despite the high-end price tag, they will “definitely be repurchasing.” Others said that this foundation gives them the look of coveted “glass skin” and that “it glides on skin like butter.”

Promising Sephora reviews:
“I love this foundation! Super silky, it feels like you got a new skin, the best version of your own skin! Does not feel heavy or caky at all! You can use a small amount for a light/natural cover, or build layers to make a full cover pro makeup! So happy with it.” — Arghavand
“I was sceptical about the reformulation as I saw such mixed reviews but this wears beautifully and I honestly like it better than the original. I have both now and this one is much more light weight in consistency while still providing good coverage perhaps even better than the OG. The shade match is like no other foundation I’ve ever tried. 10/10” — JayDee616
“I love this foundation! Is sensitive skin friendly, blends it flawlessly, lasts all day, [has] amazing range of shades, does not enhance pores and wrinkles. So beautiful, you need this ASAP!” — Lissethhx3
“OMG this foundation goes on my face like butter and is so luxe! I have used “It Cosmetics” CC cream for years. But now this one is my other favorite and I will continue to use it. I’d say it’s about medium coverage. So if you like “bougie” higher end foundations like me. I recommend you treat yourself.” — roxi327
″After trying numerous foundations, the Luminous Silk has become my go-to. Its natural feel is unmatched and lasts long while effortlessly concealing skin flaws. Best of all, it’s lightweight and pigmented, giving me the perfect balance. It’s not just one of my favorites; it is one of the best foundations I have ever used on my face.” — SarahAfshar
