A couple of months before my wedding I experienced every bride's nightmare. For the first time in my life my good skin went AWOL and I was left with an angry outbreak of adult acne. I'd experimented with a new face cream and paid the price. Thankfully a great dermatologist sorted me out and her advice can still be seen in my skin care routine.
Number one on my make-up must-haves is Giorgio Armani's Luminous Silk Foundation. The product offers great coverage plus is water based, offering much needed moisture to dry skin throughout the day. The range of colours are ideal for Irish skin, beginning with very pale shades.
The one product can work for both day and night or Summer and Winter. By adding a darker or lighter shade of Armani's Fluid Sheer to the Luminous Silk, you can change the shade of your foundation to suit your skin needs. It is more expensive than high street brands but a little goes a long way and it’s a great skincare investment.
Armani Luminous Silk €42.00, available from Giorgio Armani Cosmetics in Brown Thomas Dublin and Brown Thomas Cork.
