Giorgio Armani Face Fabric // Foundation Review

Giorgio Armani Face Fabric // Foundation Review














You may know, that I recently did a first impressions of this foundation on my YouTube: 

Make sure to check it out! You can see there how I applied it, how it looked in video, and my first thoughts. Since this video I have tried it out several more times. I've liked it and I've hated it. First lets talk coverage.. It isn't there. This is such a sheer coverage that it isn't even funny. I hoped at least for light-to-medium. Nope. It could pass as a tint. That is where I'm confused because this is a mousse texture that turns to powder texture once rubbed in. Weird, right? You also have to go light with this, not so great with a sheer formula, otherwise your face feels so heavy of makeup! I also have found that applying it with my hand is the best way over sponge or brush, which I also hate.  So I can honestly say this "foundation" absolutely sucks. 
This is where that changes.. So all though I don't like it as a "foundation" with a full face of other makeup, as you can see in my pictures I'm pretty bare face. I literally have four products on my face (my lashes are just tinted a little from yesterdays mascara). As you can see (that "light" coverage) all my freckles, a few blemishes I have, and you can also see my awful under eye circles before I applied concealer. I can say in the video I actually liked the outcome of this. I looked natural and dewy, but on average days of my life I have horrid breakouts and this wouldn't work. What I was the most intrigued about was trying it for the gym. It sounds stupid, but I am one of those people that have insecurities about my break outs, under eyes, and light brows & lashes. Because of those I do wear makeup to the gym, but I'm always super light with it. I plan on doing a whole video on gym makeup soon, but for the mean time I wanted to review this. I tried this over my usual and to my surprise I loved it! Another thing I'm insecure about at the gym is the fact that I'm so pale that once I start really killing it at the gym I turn red, tomato red. It can be so embarrassing, with this on the tint somehow kept my natural tone in place while sweating my butt off! No red showed through. I also wanted to mention the wear time because it is pretty great! Again, not much there because the coverage is awful, but it lasts all day! I had sweat pouring down my face at the gym and it stayed in place no problem! 
So do I love this product? Not as actual foundation. Would I repurchase? I don't know. I would want to for the gym, but the cost of this is killer for that coverage. 

I honestly give this Face Fabric a 4/10 only because how long it last and how it works for me at the gym. For a day-to-day foundation with other makeup? I don't think so. I did want to add you get 1.35 FL. Oz that is pretty good since the standard size is 1 FL. Oz. 

The Giorgio Armani Face Fabric is $49 and you can get it at Sephora.
My shade: 0.5
Below are the other products I threw on. 

Just a little Estee Lauder Double Wear Concealer (1n ultra light neutral) on my under eyes, Ulta Beauty Brow Tint (light), and a little NYX Butter Gloss (eclair). I normally just throw a chapstick on for the gym though.

Skincare & Makeup Haul

Skincare & Makeup Haul I've never done a "haul" on my blog before, but I thought it would be a cool idea plus it would be a sneak peak of things that I'll be trying out for future reviews.  Skincare: I have been loving trying out new skincare items and although my skincare bin is a little full at the moment there was a few things I was running low on and a few things that I couldn't pass on!  I was running low on both makeup removing wipes and micellar water, so I picked these up at Target. I often use a moisturizer from the Simple brand, but I've never tried their wipes or micellar water before. It's cheaper in the long run buying the two pack of wipes, but I do hope these work good!  My nose has once again started getting clogged with blackheads. I've been trying out a few different foundations and wearing makeup just about everyday and my skin just isn't use to that. After taking a two week break from makeup a...

July Monthly Beauty Favorites

  July Monthly Beauty Favorites  I've been keeping my fingernails pretty naturally and trying to get them more healthier and longer looking, but I got this Kokie nail polish in an Ipsy bag a couple months ago and I've been using it a lot this summer on my toes. It's a really pretty periwinkle color. This is in the shade Heavenly. I actually bought this awhile back and used it (at least the body mist, as you can tell) so much. I've recently started using them again and have fallen in love with the scent once again. It's a mixture of vanilla and coconut. Those are my favorites!   FACE: For face care, I've still been using this  tarte Rainforest of the Sea Deep Dive Gel Cleanser . I absolutely  love this stuff! This is a "must have" and "holy grail" for me! It has helped my face problems (I still have some issues of course, but it's improved since using this religiously) so much and doesn't dry my skin out too much a...

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018

Ricky's Cult Crushes // May 2018  You may already know, but I moved all of my subscriptions to my beauty channel: AllyBrianne   You can check out my unboxings there of all of my monthly and seasonal subscriptions.  The reason I'm posting this blog today is because I just got this months Ricky's Cult Crushes in the mail last week. I planned on filming a quick unboxing to post Sunday, but my weekend got away from me so here we are. This is only my second month receiving this subscription. I'm up in the air about it honestly. Last months ( Ricky's Cult Crushes // April 2018 ) was a good box, but sadly the pans in the eyeshadow palette kept falling out! You can see all that business in the video! I was disappointed because the shadows were great.. The packaging not so much.  If you don't know what  Ricky's Cult Crushes is... It is a $11 (now $14, I'll explain) monthly subscription that has mainly beauty items. This is a subscription throug...
