Just like MAC and Clinique, Armani is going with a naturally nude face for spring. (Are you picking up on a trend yet?) The new collection features Sasha Pivarova as the campaign face. Even though this picture has benefited from a little retouching, the flawlessness of her skin is pretty enviable.

It might be due to the new Luminous Silk Powder ($44), a fine pressed powder available in eight shades. Or you could chalk it up to Fluid Sheer Radiance ($35), a sheer fluid brightener available in apricot or pink washes. It can be used as a light blush or to sculpt—yep, sculpting has returned from the '80s, although the look is much softer and less obvious now.
What I like most about this collection is the accompanying tutorial that shows you, step-by-step, how to get this look. Will we all wind up looking like Sasha? Nah. But considering the radiance of this look, I'm willing to give it a whirl.

gorgeous ad.
1I love the new nude look!
2The model's actually Sasha Pivovarova, not Gemma Ward. They look amazingly alike, I know.
3Soft and pretty colors...I like it.
4I never actually tried the Giorgio Armani make-up. The ad sure look enticing.
5The ad is lacking but the radiance of Sasha's skin (not Gemma) is lovely!
6i love this look. i definitely want to try them out!
7Yeah, I was about to say that it's Sasha Pivovarova... Gemma Ward has slightly softer features.
8thats not Gemma! Anyway I don't think that Gemma's that busy at the moment, D&G even photoshopped her head on Lily Donaldson's body in the new ads... its pretty obvious!
9Nice...
10Nice...
11i wouldnt really call that a nude face, i would call it smokey eye without the eyeliner. which, a someone who does makeup, i wouldnt recommend for the normal person. unless you have very striking eyes, the dark shadow under the eye w/o eyeliner, whill do one of a few things...1) make you look like someone punched you, 2) wash out your eyes, or 3) make you look very very tired...
12OK, OK, not Gemma! My mistake. Will fix.
13She looks gorgeous. I love the lip color, but I don't think it would work on me.
14Very nice ad. She's beautiful.
I think I'll try this make up. I love the nude look.
15her skin is soooooooooooooo enviable.
16beautiful and smooth and flawless!!!!
oooh the colors are pretty but i dont think i can pull them off
17They should atleast do a couple of spring looks, since not all women are pale sking & blonde. The make up style looked ridiculous on me.
18piVOvarova : )
19I really REALLY don't understand why designers chose Sasha to model for their campaigns!?! She looks good in this ad but when I first saw her on the runways I seriously thought she looked like Gollum from LOTR!!
