The beauty of beauty (kinda catchy, huh?) is that we can individually have our own preferences, our own routine that is easily supported by the plethora of beauty products out there. While some of us prefer wearing a tinted spf moisturizer like the DDF Sun Protection Enhancing lotion others may actually enjoy the coverage provided by a foundation. Hey, you say tomato I say tomahto...to each her/his own and I'm just here to support you! For my foundation users out there, whether you wear it daily or just on special occasions, there's a certain art to getting that flawless coverage where people are just left guessing if you naturally have that immaculate complexion or is it enhanced?! You see one of my biggest pet peeves is when you can literally see the layers or better yet the kabuki-like masks some foundations leave. In fact on the subways (remember my last blog entry?) I love to guess who's really wearing foundation! It screams from miles away- "this is not real! Can you count the cake-like layers?" There's no absolute reason anyone should be wearing foundation like this anymore, with the advancement of beauty technology that's a thing of the past.So I proudly introduce to you Giorgio Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Foundation, a revolution in the art of foundation. Imagine flawless, radiant skin with that glow people can't quite place....all courtesy of Armani Beauty. Hydrating yet weightless, this silky fluid glides onto skin for a finish only once possible through airbrush machines. Perfect for all skin types, including oily skin, this oil-free foundation provides all-day buildable coverage that can be customized to meet your needs, ranging from ultra sheer to moderate coverage. Skin is left more radiant and glowing for a dewy, healthy look. Although a bit pricey at $58 per bottle, this is one product worth the splurge! I'm all about cutting corners but there are some hallmark pieces that are pivotal to the rest of your regimen, like foundations which serve as the base to everything, so invest wisely in your face. And just think it gives you the same result as the airbrush machines that the celebs and tv stars use at the fraction of the price!
Usage tip: Fact- must people don't need foundation all over! Instead apply to your t-zone area to even out skin tone and cover any imperfections. Don't be afraid to use your clean hands to help blend...there's nothing worse than a foundation line!
The result: Flawless, radiant skin without the foundation telltale signs...your secret is safe with me!

Ahhh, here is the mention of DDF. I had to run to my bathroom to look at my foundation. I knew it was Armani, but was it the Luminous Silk? Yes! I became best girlfriends with a beautiful Asian model while I lived in LA. Every night we went out she looked immaculate. She took me to Saks one day and showed me the Armani foundation. I bit the bullet and bought it. I must admit I had been saving it for special occasions. I wore it the other night and two friends commented about how amazing my make up looked. Voila, now I'm starting to use it every night I go out. Thanks for pointing out that I don't need it all over. I was slathering on the sucker. I also have the Armani concealer. I'm still not clear how to apply it without getting raccoon eyes.

JMarie: Thanks for the tip. I'm actually in the process of moving my blog to Quick Blog app. Do you have any experience with it? I'm glad that you also enjoy the foundation and it's amazing how a little goes a long way in the right places. Which concealer of there's do you have? The corrector one?
