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.

Amethyst | Gemstone Series

 Amethyst | Gemstone Series  Today is Amethyst. I have to say I started this look a little late in the day and was rushing the beautiful golden hour to get this makeup on and get decent pictures before the sunset.  *If this is the first gemstone look you have seen the others will be linked below, but the idea is creating looks based on gemstones every week and the challenge (not really) using the ColourPop So Jaded palette to create the eye look.  ✖️Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel (Blonde) ✖️Eyes: Mac Cosmetics Paint Pot (Painterly) ColourPop So Jaded Palette (Ametrine, Flourite, & Amethyst) Tarte Cosmetics Big Ego Mascara I started the look with the Ametrine shade right above my crease and blended it out with a blending brush. Then I took the Flourite shade on my inner corner and brow bone as my highlight.  Then, of course, the Amethyst shade in the palette. I patted it on the lid space with my finger before blending it in my actual ...

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...
