The First Swipe

Right off the bat, the texture of this bronzing powder is what sets it apart. It’s described as “creamy,” which truly lives up to that name. Although it’s a powder, it feels soft and velvety upon application, blending effortlessly into the skin. I typically apply it with a fluffy bronzer brush, and I was impressed by how smoothly it glided on—no patchiness, no streaks. The finish is beautifully satin, giving a natural sun-kissed glow that doesn’t look too matte or overly shiny.

Shade 90 – A Warm, Golden Tan

Let’s talk about Shade 90. This shade is a warm, golden tan perfect for medium skin tones. It’s not too orange, a common problem I’ve had with other bronzers, and it delivers just the right amount of warmth to the skin. Whether I’m using it for a light dusting of color or building it up for a more sculpted, contoured look, it provides a radiant, healthy finish. The pigmentation is spot-on—not too sheer but not overpowering, allowing you to control your desired intensity.

Long-lasting, Luminous Finish

Another thing I love about Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Sunlit Creamy Bronzing Powder is its long-lasting formula. I’ve worn it on long days out and about, and it stays put without fading or settling into fine lines. By the end of the day, my skin still looks fresh and glowing. The Luminous Silk collection is known for delivering a luminous, skin-like finish, and this bronzer lives up to that reputation.

Suppose you’re looking for a bronzer that delivers a beautiful, radiant glow while feeling lightweight and luxurious. In that case, the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Sunlit Creamy Bronzing Powder in Shade 90 is a must-try. It adds warmth, blends like a dream, and stays flawless all day. I’ll definitely be keeping this as a staple in my makeup bag. For the makeup base, this bronzing powder has worked very well with my usual bases and the Luminous Silk Foundation (review here).

The Phyto-Teint Luminous Matte Foundation

In 2024, Sisley is innovating its cosmetic products to offer high-quality skin care and flawless beauty. The Phyto-Teint foundation includes the exclusive Ideal Skin Complex, which considers external factors that may affect the skin. The matte-finish foundation is ideal for correcting unevenness and other complexions.

What's Inside?

Using a plant-derived complex, the foundation has three essential skin care actions:

• Hydration: The foundation delivers long-lasting, deep hydration throughout the day to limit moisture loss. The skin is immediately better hydrated and plump.
• Smoothing: The light formula refines skin texture and pores for a smoothed-out, pore-free finish.
• Radiance: The foundation helps improve light reflection, resulting in a bright and healthier look.

Choose From Twenty-nine Shades

The Phyto-Teint matte foundation offers long-lasting and buildable coverage for all skin types. The transfer-proof formula looks natural and has no heavy, powdery finish. You can choose from 29 shades, 11 intensities, and three undertones (cool, warm, neutral) to find the perfect shade.

How Do You Find Your Foundation Undertone?

There are several techniques for finding our skin undertone, but one of my favourites is the “vein technique.”

• Veins are purple/ blue= Cool
• The Veins are green/ yellow= Warm
• Veins are blue and green/ yellow= Neutral

My Review

I was excited to try the updated version of one of my all-time favourite foundations. As a fond lover of the Phyto-Teint foundation, I 100% approve of the NEW matte and luminous finish. The Sisley foundation looks natural and can easily be built up for higher coverage. I applied it using the Sisley makeup brush, as I always seem to get a flawless finish.

I selected the shades 3W2 Hazel for all year round and 4W Cinnamon for summers when I am tanned. Also, I love how Sisley has delivered a wide range of shades and considered the skin's different undertones. The shade range is easy to understand and will guide you to the correct colour, even if you are a beginner makeup artist.
