One fanatic reviewer raves about the Luminous Silk's uniqueness, likening it to "one of the best foundations I've ever used on my face."

Crashing in for a landing ... when seeking the crème-de-la-crème in the beauty world, we look to the wisdom of pros – dermatologists, makeup artists, and skincare gurus. These experts assist us in navigating the endless sea of products, and when a specific item repeatedly echoes their endorsements, it's clear that we've struck product gold.

The Luminous Silk foundation by Armani Beauty is such a product. It's been gushed about by renowned professionals such as the one who labeled it a "never cakey, lightweight, and dewy" foundation, offering skin-perfecting, natural results.

It boasts popularity due to its versatility; it caters well to various skin types, including acne-prone, dry, and aging skin. The oil-free and non-comedogenic formulation ensures it's a top pick for acne-prone individuals wanting coverage without the thick, mattifying effects that many blemish-focused foundations provide.

It has been a beloved choice among makeup artists, too. Take Carola Gonzalez from Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, for instance, who appreciates its hydrating, glowy finish that effortlessly conceals imperfections without settling into wrinkles or fine lines.

The foundation comes in 40 shades, offering a medium-coverage that's easily buildable. It made use of what the brand calls "micro-fil technology," which enables color pigments to blend seamlessly for an unblemished, natural appearance. The long-lasting formula also claims to improve the appearance of irregular skin texture while maintaining a fresh, lit-from-within glow.

Special mention goes to the adoration showered upon this foundation by Sephora customers, who give it an average 4.2 out of 5 stars from over 4,248 reviewers. Many claim that despite the high-end price tag, they're definitely repurchasing. Enthusiasts describe it as providing the famed "glass skin" look and feeling like butter melting into their skin.

Check out some of the lovely reviews:

SarahAfshar: "After avoiding it due to the price for years, I've got to confess: this is hands-down one of the most beautiful foundations ever made! It feels like nothing, yet provides buildable coverage with a blurring effect. Best of all, it's lightweight and pigmented. Not just one of my favorites; it's one of the best foundations I've ever used on my face."

Marijay: "I won't sugarcoat it: I avoided this because of the price for years. I can't pretend I'm young with perfect skin anymore. This is the best foundation I've ever used! It doesn't provide full coverage, but my skin takes on a healthy, polished look."
