Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

for Armani, i expected better.
Ive had cheap concealers do the job better than this and it feels so dissapointing. Even with a ton of moisturizing underneath, the foundation flöakes and dries all over my tzone.. it doesn't cover my pimples or such either. the only upside is that its easily applicable, feels very light on the skin and makes my skintone even and glowy. but a moisturizer could do Show more

Looks great if using a good primer, but ultimately the price tag is way too high for a bottle of tinted vegetable oil. Also breaks me out.
