I did not even realize I had access to an Armani counter in Atlanta! I was in Saks, looking for Givenchy, and when I saw Armani, I ran right over. I have been wanting to try this line so badly. ...

I am amazed that this worked on my oily skin! I got a sample of this, and the matte foundation, and I prefer the LSF. It did not make me too shiny, it actually did impart a nice glow.

I thought this foundation would live up to the hype. Wrong! I used two bottles of this stuff and it made me look old. No kidding. Although it went on smooth and kept my skin moist- it made my pores...

This is really a great foundation, but you have to use the foundaton brush to apply. Otherwise it doesn't go on as well as how they promote. I'm using color No.4

I bought this in 5.5. HG foundation for me! I love the texture, packaging, and coverage. This is pricy, but it's worth every penny.

I like this foundation. I wish that it were my HG, because it was $50, but it isn't. It's just a nice foundation that I can wear in the winter when my skin isn't as oily as it is in the summer,...
