FAQs
What shade of Luminous Liquid Foundation should I use?

We recommend taking the 'Right For You' quiz, which you can find on the image at the top of this page. Our quiz will ask you questions about your skin tone and match you to the perfect liquid foundation shade.

Which type of foundation is right for me?

All of our foundation formulations have different benefits to them but we recommend taking our makeup quiz to find the perfect foundation formula for your unique skin type, concern and goals.

What primer should I use before Luminous Liquid Foundation?

All of our primers work great with this liquid foundation, but our best selling primer is our Oil-Free Tinted Primer. It evens out any tone or texture concerns, making it the perfect canvas for foundation.

Is luminous foundation for dry skin?

A liquid foundation like Luminous Liquid Foundation is a great option for all skin types except excessively oily skin. Dry skin can benefit from using liquid or creamy foundations for both conditioning benefits and coverage. If you have dry skin, start with Hydrating Primer before your foundation as an extra hydrating, cushioning layer, to prep skin for a more flawless, lasting foundation application.

Is luminous foundation good on mature skin?

Yes, as a liquid foundation that’s loaded with nourishing skincare ingredients, Luminous Liquid Foundation works well for mature skin. It blurs the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, protects skin from damaging UV rays, and imparts an instant dewiness and hydrated glow in a sheer to medium coverage. For even more blurring effects, apply Blurring Primer before Luminous Liquid Foundation to create a flawless finish and extended makeup weartime.

Yes! Samples are available for purchase here. We encourage you to try a few different shades, to find the perfect match.

    Long term relationship

    I have offical entered into a long-term relationship with this foundation. There’s so many out there that you can try but when you find the one that’s made for you, you need it. You must have it and this is it for me. I sometimes blend this with a little liquid bronzer. My favorite is uncommon James but this is my favorite foundation it last long I’m glowing and it makes me feel beautiful. Just wait till you try it.

    Glorious Glow from this Foundation

    I have used this foundation for several years and loved it from the start. It is light, covers well, stays put, and has a lovely glow. I would not use anything else and believe me, I have tried a lot of foundations, ha! Tried it, you will love it!

    Best foundation EVER

    It is consistently the best coverage, quality and dewy finish I’ve ever used. I get compliments on my “beautiful skin” and I know it’s partly me and partly the gorgeous finish of this foundation!

    The Best!

    I’ve been using their foundation for years. I’ve tried so many other things, but always love this one the best! This luminous foundation is very close to the Armani luminous. I honestly think it lasts better and looks nicer especially the dewy glow that it gives. I like to set it with the pressed base and Charlotte Tilbury setting spray. You will literally GLO!
