Giorgio Armani Crema Nuda Tinted Cream

As tempting as Giorgio Armani Crema Nuda Tinted Cream is I’m not sure I’m ready to indulge at $200. I might have spend a hefty amount of money on fragrance in my life and even skin care but foundation? At $200?

Never.

Giorgio Armani Crema Nuda Tinted Cream is a new skin perfector that according to the brand surpasses both a BB and a CC Cream making for a new generation of tinted perfecting cream. This treats, corrects, and blurs imperfection with a formula that contains reviscentalis resurrection plant that improves the skin’s radiance and gives a more youthful radiance and look.

Needless to say I had my eye on it prior to see the $200 price tag. After that I took a gulp and asked myself do I really need $200 perfecting cream when I can get any number of great Korean BB and CC Creams for much less?

Ok, maybe I do still want it….

My logical beauty side says don’t do it but my illogical one suddenly has a new YOLO philosophical look on my life!

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I wonder if Sephora will soon carry this product as they carry the rest of the Armani line. Armani skin care and makeup is sooo nice. I got my makeup done once at the Armani counter at Nordstrom’s and the whole experience was fabulous.

    I want to call a Nordstroms and/ or Neiman Marcus and request a sample of this:))
    Armani products are pretty fantastic as well as Yves Saint Laurent. Some luxury brands go above and beyond, and really deliver, regardless of the price tag.
    Armani foundations are a perfect example of this.

    You should try the new La Mer skin tint! Amazing! I sooo want to buy it, even though I need to use up like 8 foundations first

    Tempting, yes. But YIKES. So much other awesome stuff could be had for $200. There’s no way it’s that good. Every product in the $70+ range I’ve ever bought has been disappointing. Even if I liked the product, I didn’t like it THAT much. Why set yourself up for disappointment? Maybe when they inevitably lower the price to $70 (ha) it’ll seem like a steal and sell like hotcakes? I’m thinking that’s their strategy…

      Forgot to mention, it’s also in a jar which isn’t that sanitary. It should have the best packaging ever to help justify that $200 price tag, no?

        That’s exactly what I was thinking too! Any “active ingredients” will quickly degrade in this type of container. I just can’t figure out why so many companies continue to use this style packaging…you’d think that at some point in the development process SOMEBODY would say “um, guys..this packaging is crap!”

    Whoa i thought let’s give it a try… Before i saw the pricetag.. Shame, i really love my luminous silk foundation, and the black ecstacy mascara works pretty good too!

  • Katherine T.

    Yikes, for $200, this better give me the skin of an 18 year old supermodel !

  • Zovesta

    Every time someone buys this, an angel cries.

    I though $100 would be beyond ridiculous for any piece of cosmetic… $200? Brb, recovering from heart attack. I agree with Katherine and Sarah. =P

    I thought the same at first but let me say,this product is worth every penny.Your skin is flawless..it is really not a makeup but a tinted moisturizer that is high pigmented,it cover EVERYTHING yet still looks dewey and very natural…even black and blue marks! I never went without foundation but I do now.I am 66 and my skin looks phenomenal with this product.Stop at a counter and try a sample.Occasionally,like today ,the website has a 20% off coupon code,ONLY online. The jar lasts forever and you only need a dot.Believe me,I was not buying it at that price but it hides every flaw without looking like a mask on your face.
