Giorgio Armani Peach (5) Fluid Sheer Review & Swatches
Peach (5)
Giorgio Armani Peach (5) Fluid Sheer Glow Enhancer Highlighter ($44.00 for 0.61 oz.) is a light coral with moderate, warm undertones and fine, golden shimmer. It had sheer coverage in “one layer,” but it naturally spread out quite readily, so it was almost translucent in practice. I could just barely see a tint of pink-coral on my skin, and it didn’t build up much beyond that, so it may have even less visible tinting on deeper skin tones.
The texture was very fluid, almost runny, which helped it spread easily, but I think some of the more recently-released, slightly more gel-like liquid highlighters on the market are a little easier to use and more versatile as they can be sheer as well as built up, so they show up on more skin tones. The product applied evenly to bare skin whether I used fingertips or a brush, but the very fluid texture worked better with a brush when I used it over base products to avoid lifting them up. It stayed on nicely for eight hours before fading visibly.

Formula Overview
$44.00/0.61 oz. - $72.13 Per Ounce
The formula is supposed to be "ultra blendable" with "sheer coverage" and have a "natural dewy" finish. It can be applied on its own, on top of products, or mixed in with foundation.
The coverage was very sheer, and the more fluid, almost watery, consistency made what was already sheer coverage have a tendency to be even sheerer. I found that the effect of it on its own, as a standalone highlighter, on top of products or bare skin was very subtle to the point where it looked more like faint particles of shimmer but little color and subtle luminosity.
Applied over bare skin, fingertips or brushes worked well, but I preferred a duo-fiber, more feathery brush for applying it over foundation as it seemed more prone to leaving behind fingertips when I tried patting it over foundation. It mixed well with different foundations, and it also was something that mixed well with moisturizers or more fluid primers.
It dries down for the most part, so it wasn't prone to sliding around while worn nor did it feel tacky on. They wore around eight hours on average before fading.
