    I never would have thought to try this foundation but for the reviews here. Although my normal-to-dry skin does become normal-to-oily in the summer, I avoid matte foundations because my past...

    I know what I'll be buying to replace my Laura Mercier Tinted Moisturizer once it runs out. :) Because of the "matte" in the title, I expected the MSF to have even more coverage than the LSF, but...

    Well, now I've got two foundations I can't live without--the MSF and the LSF! As some people have said, this foundation has more of a "suede" like look as opposed to the "silk" (duh!) look of the...

    For the sake of this review, I'm going to assume that most readers are familiar with armani's original luminous silk foundation (lsf). The msf is somewhat matte, offers less coverage and does not...

    Although I have combination skin I dislike matte products in general but this is not bad at all. Matte #2 has the same perfect match for my PPP with pink undertones skin that LSF (which I only use...

    I'm a huge fan of Armani cosmetics. That being said, I was more than disappointed in this foundation (shade #2). It's not very blendable on the skin and I find the pump bottle to be irritating, it...

    I am an African American woman with normal/slightly oily skin. While I like the way this foundation glides on, it is a bit too moisturizing for me. Another thing is the color. I have shade 12...

    I love this! I've tried a few matte liquid foundation but none of them worked for me. But this is fabulous! It's sheer (more sheer than LSF), but the coverage is buildable. It covers redness and...

    This is the best foundation product for my skin colour. I used to love Prescriptives 100% oil free in Fresh Beige (8) but GA 6.5 gives a much better and natural finish. I would definitely buy this...

    I like this much better than the LSF. I have somewhat oily skin and this holds up better than LSF. It also lasts longer without shine throughout the day. I would say that the coverage is medium...

    This is a very nice light foundation, with a natural matte finish. It's not powdery matte, but more of a 'suede' sheen. The coverage is very light- more than Becca LSC, but not great for those with...

    I love this foundation. I had tried the GA LSF before in shade #4, which was recommended over the phone as the most common light shade. I was never happy with it or the shiny look. This in shade...
