Armani Makeup

Giorgio Armani makeup has proven to be a direct reflection of the stylish brand itself. The Armani makeup line is a sleek and sophisticated line for women who are very knowledgeable about makeup and trust in a time honored designer like Giorgio Armani. This make up is not for the faint of heart or people on a budget.

Armani makeup rich in quality and oozes class for the sophisticated woman. From the sleek black packaging to the quality of the product Armani makeup is easy to wear and has been noted to be the ultimate in sophistication.

Armani make is available in high end retail stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue and Niemen Marcus. It is also available online where you can view the entire Armani beauty collection on the website. As of now, the website is featuring the 2010 Spring Collection and has named this collection, Nude Contrasts.

The Spring Collection offers palettes for the eyes that aim to achieve a very modern yet classy look. The Eyes to Kill mascara that is part of the collection is Allure Magazine’s Best Beauty award winner for the way if provides a glamorous and seductive look for the eyes. The collection also contains powder blush, Armani silk lipstick, lip shimmer lip gloss, and a smooth silk eye pencil that will give you that defined smoky look you want to achieve.

Armani makeup offers everything in the makeup spectrum for the face, eyes, and lips. It is no surprise that they would also have make up accessories available as well. After reading reviews of the makeup brushes that Armani offers, it is clear that these may be the best brushes on the market. However, the cost of these brushes is definitely out of price range for the common consumer. A single brush can cost anywhere from $25.00 to $100.00.

The Armani makeup for the face has also received great reviews. The company sells blush, bronzer, concealer, foundation, primer, and powder. Many women adore the foundation, claiming to be the best foundation on the market. Armani foundation is available in liquid and powder. The shades available are Very Fair, Fair to Medium, Medium, Medium to Dark, and Dark. The website also has other listed as a choice; however there is not a sample of this shade. The liquid foundation has a price range of $48.00 to $65.00. The powder comes in a compact for $45.00 and is also available as a loose powder for $49.00.

For the eyes, Armani sells brow liner, eye liner, eye shadow, and mascara. I’ve read many customer reviews on websites such as eMakeup, and Makeup Products and it appears that the general consensus is that the eye makeup is not as up to Armani standard as one would expect. Armani has a limited selection of colors, keeping with the sophistication and elegance of the line. The brow pencil retails at $27.00 and only comes in brown. The eye shadow comes in a wide range of colors and retails from $29.00 to $85.00 for a gift set. The shadow itself is the number one complaint that I have read. Women who have purchased this product say that it doesn’t last long and is quick to smudge. However, the mascara is top notch. Armani offers mascara that will thicken, extend, or define your lashes. Waterproof mascara is also available. The mascara comes in three basic colors, black, graphite, and brown. The price range for Armani mascara is $28.00 to $69.00 for a gift set.

The lip collection is also spectacular. Armani offers lip gloss, lip pencils, lip wax, and lipstick. Keeping with the standards of elegance and sophistication within the product line, there are no really vibrant colors in the collection. The lip gloss comes in beige, pink, coral, brown, plum, and red. It sales for $27.00 to $49.00 for a three tube gift set. The pencil or lip liner retails for $26.00 and comes in beige, pink, and brown only. Lip wax is new to the industry and Armani is one of the first high end retailers to offer lip wax. Their lip wax comes in four shades, red, brown, pink, and beige. You will pay $27.00 for a single shade and $45.00 for the three shade gift set. Armani offers four types of lipstick as well. You can get moisturizing, high shine, long lasting, or cream lip stick. It only offers six shades of lipstick, beige, pink, coral, brown, plum, and of course, red. The price ranges from $27.00 to $30.00.

Overall, Armani makeup is a quality product for the elegant and sophisticated lady. As with all Armani products, the line is not designed for the common consumer. However, if you want to splurge on excellent quality makeup, then you may want to break open the piggy bank because this is the line for you.
