No makeup will be done without foundation. If many women use eyeliner, red lipstick, black pencil or gray shadows, then everyone uses foundation. Therefore, it is extremely important that this beauty product is of excellent quality, ideally suited to your skin type and meets your own expectations. There are countless makeup bases in the world, but today we will talk about one of the highest quality - the Giordani Gold foundation. Why is it remarkable, what are its main characteristics, is it suitable for everyone? Read the answers to these and many other questions below.
Products from the "gold" line
Since its inception on the beauty market, products from the Swedish manufacturer Oriflame have always been in demand among women. Why? First, they are really high quality. Practicallyall cosmetics and perfumes, presented in numerous catalogs, fully meet the stated expectations. Secondly, a very reasonable price is set for all beauty products from Oriflame. It's like an analogue of luxury cosmetics, which has become available to the general masses. Inside Oriflame itself, cosmetics are also divided into segments: for young and mature skin, for dry and problematic. There are also various lines that differ from each other in quality, composition and price. The most elite in the catalog is the products of the brand Giordani Gold. Under this name, not only fragrances are released, but also care products, as well as decorative cosmetics. Among them, not the last place is occupied by the Giordani Gold foundation. Well, it has varieties, including simple creams that suit everyone, and there are also anti-aging versions designed for aging skin.
Recall the past
In Russia, Oriflame catalogs became common around the early 2000s and are still in demand. It was in those days that women got acquainted with one of the old versions of the Giordani Gold foundation. It was presented in a pot-bellied bottle made of glass. The neck was equipped with a convenient beige-gold dispenser and a cap. The most important thing is that the bottle was transparent, therefore, without opening the product, you could see its shade and understand whether it suits you. The first Giordani Gold foundation from Oriflame that fell into our hands was divine. Compared to mass-market cosmetics that were sold in stores, and even compared to other foundations from the same catalog, this product had a lot of advantages. Well, it was very expensive, so not everyone could afford it, and those who bought it spent it very economically.
What was it like?
Why was it, it is! Until now, in catalogs, for a promotion or in the reserve goods section, you can buy the very "pot-bellied" version of the Giordani Gold foundation. Reviews about this beauty product, which were left earlier, at the dawn of its appearance, and now, are somewhat different. In those days, women only admired this foundation, as it was the first of its kind. It was a cream that masked imperfections, made the skin smooth and even, but it did not look like a mask. Nowadays, such funds are a dime a dozen, and against the backdrop of luxury cosmetics, alas, Oriflame is losing ground a little. Nevertheless, many continue to use the "pot-bellie", because it not only tones the skin, but also carefully cares for it.
Innovation and Variations
Over the past 10 years, the Oriflame brand has produced several more versions of the famous foundation. "Giordani Gold" has become the most desirable for women and the mosta tinting agent sold in the catalog due to the fact that many varieties have appeared. They differed from each other in composition, level of UV protection, aesthetic qualities and method of dosing and application. Among the many new products, only two became hits. The first is Oriflame's Giordani Gold silk foundation, ideal for oily and combination skin, and an anti-aging foundation from the same brand and line, which is positioned not only as a cosmetic product, but also as a care product.
Cream silk
The full name of the product is Giordani Gold Silk Fluid Foundation SPF12. It is designed for normal to oily skin, has a matte, even powdery texture, is easy to apply and dries very quickly, leaving no extra marks and streaks on the skin. The product is packaged in a very aesthetic and downright luxury bottle. It is made of frosted translucent glass, has a semicircular shape of a truncated cone. This is the same Giordani Gold foundation from Oriflame with a pipette, which at the same time plays the role of a dispenser and a cap. The pipette is designed to apply the product evenly and quickly on the face, in addition, it allows you to save the cream and not overspend it.
Basic qualities
This foundation "Giordani Gold" from "Oriflame", according to reviews, is nothing more than powder in liquid form. Since it is a fluid, its overlapping abilities a priori cannot be at the level of a dense cream. It is rather a light haze that envelopsskin, gives it an even texture and makes the tone uniform, holistic. It is thanks to such a powder base that the product is ideal for oily skin. It mattifies both the T-zone and whiskey with cheeks, if necessary, eliminates oily sheen and makes all sorts of defects less noticeable. The result cannot but rejoice - the skin acquires an even shade and a smooth, truly silky texture, and also shimmers with a matte light sheen, sparkles, but does not shine.
Palette
As is typical for tonal products from the manufacturer "Oriflame", Silk Fluid Cream is presented in the catalog in five shades. Each of them differs from the previous one not only in pigment saturation, but also in character. It can be a yellowish foundation, which is designed to hide redness, or it can be pinkish, which makes pale and painful skin more fresh and ruddy. Let's look at all the existing shades:
- Vanilla. The lightest in the palette and at the same time has a pronounced yellow undertone. Ideal for "Snow Whites", who have problematic skin, and for those who have begun to show blood vessels on their cheeks.
- Porcelain. The same light tone, but with a pinkish tinge. It is ideal for spring - it will create a blush effect, make the skin sleek and rested.
- Ivory. Foundation "Giordani Gold" with a slight tan effect (which is contrary to the name). It is very pigmented and has two tints at the same time - yellow and pink.
- Sand beige. Creamfor dark skin, which may occur redness. Perfectly hides flaws.
- Natural beige. Highly pigmented with a slight blush effect.
Flaws
Alas, one cannot ignore the reviews of the Giordani Gold foundation from Oriflame, which reveal its few shortcomings. This can be extremely useful for those who decide to purchase this beauty product for themselves. So, as the manufacturer claims, the product is intended for oily skin, therefore, if you have dry skin, you should refuse to buy. But there is one more but. Even on oily, and more often - on combination skin, peeling occurs. Alas, this cream will only emphasize them and make them more noticeable. Therefore, before using it, it is worth carrying out a scrubbing procedure, and only after applying it on top of a layer of moisturizing day cream.
