The latest iteration of Luminous Silk Foundation preserves the weightless, silky texture that made it iconic while introducing new skincare-enhanced benefits. Enriched with niacinamide, this foundation is clinically proven to even skin tone, refine texture, and boost luminosity within 14 days. Its non-comedogenic formula is dermatologist-tested, safe for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin. Once applied and allowed to dry down, the shade remains true-to-skin throughout the day and is transfer-resistant, ensuring up to 24-hour wear with continuous hydration and comfort.

In addition to its skincare benefits, Luminous Silk Foundation now offers 18 new shades, broadening the spectrum to include a wider range of skin intensities and undertones, with particular attention to olive skin tones. Advanced pigment technology, incorporating ultramarine and green pigments, ensures deep tones remain vibrant without greyness and olive and neutral shades retain their luminosity without dullness.

The foundation’s revolutionary “Liquid Silk Technology” disperses light across the skin’s surface, creating a radiant, smooth, and weightless finish. Its medium buildable coverage allows for versatility, from a natural everyday look to soft glam or even glass-skin effects. Application can be tailored to the desired finish: a foundation brush offers a flawless, airbrushed effect, while a damp sponge delivers a luminous, dewy glow through layered coverage. For enhanced results, Luminous Silk Glow Setting Powder and Luminous Silk Hydrating & Brightening Concealer complement the foundation, allowing for long-lasting, radiant makeup that highlights the skin’s natural beauty.

Elegance extends beyond the formula to the packaging itself. The newly redesigned bottle is crafted from clear glass, featuring a slender silhouette and contrasting black cap, accented by the Giorgio Armani silver monogram at the junction of the cap and bottle. Both full-size and travel-size formats are fully recyclable, reflecting Armani Beauty’s commitment to sustainability without compromising on luxury.
