InStyle even named it one of the best foundations for mature skin.
I’ve always been a fan of Blake Lively and Meghan Markle’s easy-but-elevated style. And while I try to emulate their effortless elegance with similar fashion and beauty choices, I never thought I’d actually share something in common with them. But it turns out, we’re fans of the same glow-boosting foundation: Armani Beauty’s Luminous Silk Foundation.

Lively recently wore the filter-like foundation to the CFDA Awards, where she boasted a radiant complexion that complemented her winter white Michael Kors look. And that’s what makes Armani’s Luminous Silk Foundation a fan-favorite: It features a texture-blurring formula that softens, smooths, and brightens the skin. InStyle even named it the best lightweight coverage for mature skin.
Plus, the medium coverage foundation is easily buildable, and I’ve found that it even conceals the peskiest of pimples and inflammation I get around my chin and cheek area. Not to mention, it’s long-wearing and can hold up during an eight-hour work shift, a 45-minute Pilates workout session, and a full-day at Disneyland. It’s been my go-to for almost two years, but I especially reach for it during the fall and winter when my skin is extra dry and sensitive, because it keeps me glowy, fresh, and hydrated for hours.
Best of all? The Luminous Silk Foundation works for all skin types, including acne-prone skin like mine with its oil-free formula. It’s no wonder fans of all ages, including Lively, Markle, whose former makeup artist Lydia Sellers said it was her go-to because her “freckles [peeked] through,” and brand ambassadors Sydney Sweeney and Cate Blanchett swear by the skin-smoothing foundation.
And with a nearly five-star rating online, celebs aren’t the only ones singing its praises. One Nordstrom shopper said their skin “looks flawless” every time they use it. A 48-year-old reviewer called it the “best foundation ever.” A final shopper said they “often get compliments on [their] skin,” and they “credit this foundation.”
