I am looking for it too. I found out it is at LIMITED neiman's, nordstrom's, and saks. One of the nordie's in my area has it and one doesn't. It's also supposed to be on Sephora, but I want to try it first. HTH

for a while it was only at like three saks.  now they have it at more saks, some neiman's and (i guess, although i haven't seen myself) at some nordstroms.  they don't have it at armani stores.  it is kind of hard to find, but it's worth it.

Here's a list of numbers I've compiled.  Three places I STRONGLY recommend are SFA NYC, Beverly Hills & SF.  Tell each contact Gail from Hawaii sent you & they'll probably waive taxes & shipping.



  • NM Dallas: 800.756.5784--Lisa (SA) is VERY nice & helped me w/2 hauls during Beauty Week, Spring 2004.
  • Nordstrom South Coast Plaza: 714.549.5300 
  • GA Boutique, Las Vegas: 702.893.8387 (2nd Floor, Bellagio Hotel)
  • GA Boutique, NYC: 212.988.9191 (760 Madison Ave.)
  • SFA Toll Free: 800.347.9177 & ask for the following counters or dial direct...
  • SFA Bal Harbour: 305.993.6185
  • SFA Beverly Hills: 310.887.5471--Chee is VERY helpful & waives my taxes & shipping.  Just tell her Gail from Hawaii sent you. =)
  • SFA Boca Raton: 561.620.1365
  • SFA Boston: 617.937.5381--Denise (SA) is VERY helpful.  
  • SFA Chicago: 312.799.5240--Tony (MA)
  • SFA New York City: 212.940.2962--Jeanette; mention me & she'll usually  waive tax & shipping. =)
  • SFA San Antonio: 210.341.4111
  • SFA San Francisco: 415.438.5270--Dorice (MA) or Maile (SA) helped me w/a makeover & LARGE haul in January 2003; and Reiko, the counter manager is an absolute doll.  Tell her Gail from Hawaii sent you & she'll help you w/colors.

** ETA:  SFA Austin: 512.231.3787--ask for Dawn (she helped a friend)

Kealoha,


Thanks for the information. The closest one to me is SFA in Boca Raton. Do you work for Saks? My question is that i would like to try the makeup but there is no way that i can get there any time soon but i do have a friend that lives in Boca and is coming up next week. Does Saks offer to make samples?

I'm getting married in early May and am looking for that magic makeup to make me look flawless (ha-ha).


Any advice??

Sunshinegirl, I actually don't work for SFA, but love Armani so much & have called almost every counter if my go-to contacts don't have items I want in stock.


I'd call Jeanette @ NYC or Chee @ Beverly Hills & ask them for samples.  Jeanette's really good @ matching & has made samples of foundations for several board buddies of mine.  Chee's equally great & has also done the same.  There's generally no charge & they'll send it out w/in 1-2 business days.


I'm sure your friend could get some samples from the Boca counter.  Call them & explain to the SA/MA what you're looking for & what your undertones are.  Generally, the .5 shades are yellow-based & the solid #s are pink-based.  The Luminous Silk Foundation (LSF) is the best for full-coverage, Matte Silk Foundation (MSF) provides ample coverage, but is more on the sheer end.  There's a new foundation called Hydra-Glow which was just released.  I'm waiting for mine to arrive from SF & hear it's really nice.


PM me if you have more questions or want suggestions from the line.
