Besides claiming the Best Pop Solo Performance and the Best Pop Vocal Album of the Year, Sabrina Carpenter had one assignment at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards on Feb. 2: to keep up her slay strike. And I think we can all agree that she delivered on that front and then some, especially with her Marilyn Monroe-esque red carpet look. Her custom pastel blue JW Anderson gown basically spoke for itself, but it was her Old Hollywood-inspired makeup moment that really had me swooning. Let's just say it was too good not to replicate, so it's a good thing I have *all* the details about her glam routine from her makeup artist Carolina Gonzalez, which included an old-school beauty fave—the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Perfect Glow Flawless foundation ($69)—that you'll to want to buy RN if you don't already have it in your cosmetics bag.

The oil-free liquid foundation (used as a base for Carpenter's makeup look) launched in 2000 and has been helping buyers perfect their complexions ever since. But just what makes this stuff so good that it consistently stands the test of time? Per the brand, the foundation boasts Micro–fil technology, which supposedly allows color pigments to lay flat for seamless blending and layering. That considered, it's truly no wonder that the medium-coverage foundation is a fave among celebs and makeup artists.

Now that it has an official stamp of approval from the queen of soft glam herself, I bet it won't stay on the shelves. Luckily, all *40* shades are in stock at Sephora right this second, so I would run to buy the long-lasting foundation—which delivers that lit-from-within glow you've been trying to achieve—if I were you. But there's something else from the line you'll also want to grab if you're hoping to copy Carpenter's complexion. 

In addition to the Armani Beauty Luminous Silk face and under-eye concealer, Gonzalez used the brand's Luminous Silk cheek tint ($39) to give the pop star those just-kissed rosy cheeks.

The liquid blush launched last year, and the now-Grammy winner has been a fan of it ever since. Last year, Carpenter's blush combo went viral after her MUA shared the exact products she uses on her Instagram story. While her typical blush routine consists of a blend of the 53 Bold Pink and 62 Delicate Mauve shade, Gonzalez apparently stuck to one color for her Grammys look—this 53 Bold Pink.

Like the foundation, the blush has the *same* technology that allows it to blend into the skin seamlessly. However, if you're anything like me, you'll swoon over the luminous flush of color it leaves on your cheeks for up to *12* hours. I repeat: up to 12 hours, y'all!

Long story short, these Carpenter-approved Armani products are basically nonnegotiable. Who needs espresso when these products can keep your face looking bright and awake all day?
