March has arrived and spring’s warmth beckons, yet the lack of sunlight has bestowed upon your face a vampiric incandescence. While hitting the tanning bed may seem irresistible right now, we’ve all been schooled in its dangerous effects. What is more, its alternative- self-tanning – can be messy, challenging and not so pleasantly fragranced.
A liquid bronzer or luminizer presents an effortlessly chic option. Meet the Giorgio Armani Fluid Sheer #10 Golden Beige, a superb product for achieving the beautiful, J-Lo-esque “illuminating veil of radiance” you’re after.
I was lucky enough to speak with Giorgio Armani Beauty’s Celebrity Face Designer and National Director of Creative Artistry, Tim Quinn. His artistry has graced the visages of A-listers Megan Fox, Victoria Beckham, Kim Catrall and Kate Bosworth. Trained by the world’s top runway and fashion editorial makeup artist Pat McGrath, Quinn is a master at creating sun-kissed red carpet glamour. He also seems to sport an exquisitely bronzed complexion year round.
“Fluid Sheer #10 is one of my all-time favorites!” Quinn said. “The subtle golden glow works well on most skin types used alone, mixed with foundation, or blended with moisturizer.”
Unlike other luminizers, the Fluid Sheer’s superfine pearlescent shimmer won’t leave you feeling like a disco ball, and the product is so versatile it can even be used as an eyeshadow base. It’s no wonder that InStyle Magazine deemed it “Best Luminizer” several years in a row.
Giorgio Armani Beauty Fluid Sheer #10 is available at Saks Fifth Avenue and Nordstrom for $59.
