The Luminous Silk Glow Setting Powder ($64; sephora.com) is new from Giorgio Armani Beauty, a gorgeous, silky powder with a smooth, slightly luminous finish. I’d call this more of a finishing powder than a setting powder. The packaging is gorgeous, very Armani and also comes with a compact brush that is quite fluffy and helps with sheer application. I tried two shades, 5.5 and 6.5, both really nice matches for my medium-tan skin tone. I wouldn't recommend this as a setting powder unless you have flawless skin and want only sheer coverage. It works better as a finishing powder that adds a dewy, luminous effect. I have dry skin and this feels lightweight and does not emphasize texture/pores. If you have oily skin, the natural oils might come through after a few hours. I like to use a less dense powder brush with this since it is finely milled and a fluffy brush makes it less difficult to overdo. The brush that comes with this product is good for touch ups on the go and quite soft as well. Overall, if you have dry skin and like lightweight powders with sheer coverage, do give these powders by Armani Beauty a try.
