Giorgio Armani Nude Contrasts Eye Palette

I love this idea! While upon first glance, this palette looks rather boring, it houses a unique mix of shades designed to complement one another to contour your eye area and softly enhance your own natural look. If this is half as good as the NARS All About Eve duo, I must make it mine!

Giorgio Armani Nude Contrasts Eye Palette is available from Nordstrom for $58.

Giorgio Armani Lip Wax Set

Giorgio Armani’s new cosmetic collection is defined by its silky, fluid textures, so I am extremely intrigued by the idea of “Lip Wax.”

The luxurious formula is said to glide on lips, leaving rich, beautiful color that’s as weightless as it is smooth. The set includes 3 shades, all packaged in a zip case complete with a mirror.

Giorgio Armani Lip Wax Set is available from Neiman Marcus for $59.

Idole d’Armani Fragrance for Women

“I have always carried with me an ideal of femininity – an irresistible combination of grace, beauty and independent spirit. IDOLE d’ARMANI is my tribute to this ideal, and to women everywhere.” – Giorgio Armani

Idole d’Armani, the  latest Armani fragrance for women, launches this month with a spicy appeal and tons of charm. This is a fragrance that has a bit of masculinity, suggesting a hidden strength and independence, yet the floral notes capture the femininity.

Here’s what’s in the juice:

  • Top notes: dazzling bitter orange, juicy pear, ginger and davana.
  • Middle notes: audacious rose loukoum and mythical jasmine blended boldly with saffron absolute, creating a honey-coloured subtle spicy note.
  • Base notes: luminous and sensual, unexpected styrax, patchouli and vetiver.

Actress Kasia Smutniak is the gorgeous face of this campaign, chosen by Giorgio Armani for her “fresh and modern appeal.”

Idole d’Armani is available online at GiorgioArmaniBeauty-USA.com.

For Your Guy: Armani Attitude Extreme

Attitude Extreme

If this ad alone isn’t enough to make you run out and get your man a bottle of Armani Attitude Extreme then I don’t know what to say.

I’m thinking of blowing this up to life-size proportions and hanging it on the wall in my office. Good idea, no?

Attitude Extreme Bottle

Attitude Extreme is a more intense version of Armani Attitude. Here’s what the brand says about this new fragrance:

“The woody oriental has been reworked to display masculinity in a more sensual, pronounced way. Its strong and elegant expression leaves an unforgettable, lasting imprint.
The Sicilian Lemon top note is cloaked in the star anise note and cardamom giving off a spicy, aromatic burst of infinite richness and freshness.
At the heart, the coffee-cedar accord is shaken up with incense whose purity exudes a warm sensuality.
The base is enhanced with smooth, woody ambergris and mysterious, enveloping Indonesian Patchouli creating a truly desirable combination”

Armani Attitude Extreme is available online at GiorgioArmaniBeauty-USA.com.
