Which one now takes the top spot?

I try them both to find out…

Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk

I’m actually surprised it’s taken me so long to try it. 

(At nearly £50 a bottle that might be why!)

Safe to say I had high expectations…

This award winning foundation…

Best Foundation, Best Bridal Foundation and Best Beauty Inspiration to name a few

Has light reflecting technology and promises silky smooth results.

Shade:

I went for shade 5.9 Medium Cool, and used my trusty Hourglass Foundation Brush to blend in.

Here are the Results…

Giorgio Armani Finished Look

Once blended, I used my normal make up routine to see the finished look.

I was Expecting A Lot More…

It’s like a sheer cover across your skin…

A dewy and yes, glowy finish, but kind of just, underwhelming?

I think I may have hyped this up over the years of seeing it all over Instagram.

It’s just like a tinted moisturiser.

If a natural finish is what you’re looking for, then this is definitely more natural!

Haus Labs Foundation

This was the foundation I was the most excited to try.

I think because it’s fairly new on the scene, it’s Lady GaGa, and the bottle is quite inviting (just me?)

My one gripe is that it doesn’t have a bottle dispenser.

So you have to unscrew the lid and use the little stick thing.

It’s not the end of the world, but just a small inconvenience I thought I’d point out!

Here’s what I used to get the finished look:

♦ Rodial Banana Lowlighter (under my eyes, middle of forehead and chin)

♦ Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder

♦ Charlotte Tilbury Matte Beauty Blush Wand

♦ Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray

I was Fully Blown Away

I know I had high expectations, but I didn’t think a foundation could do that.

The coverage was insane.

With still a beautiful and dewy finish.

Who knew you could get both in one bottle??

My skin looked exactly the same 8 hours later, with not a smidge of foundation out of place.

If you like a full coverage, with a dewy finish, this foundation is PERFECT.

Shade:

I used shade Light Medium Cool, and it gives that lovely warmth without being orange.

The Hourglass foundation brush is the only brush you need to blend in your foundation.

I don’t think I will ever use another method to apply my make up.
