If I was only allowed to wear one eyeshadow for the
rest of my life, this would be it. That sentence alone should tell you
everything you need to know about Giorgio Armani's Eyes To Kill silk eyeshadow
in number 24. But I'm in the first flush
of love and there's plenty more I want to rave on about, including the perfect nude lippie for autumn,
so read on!
This is my first Eyes To Kill shadow and if you
haven't tried them, then boy are you in for a treat. Billed as a hybrid
cream/powder formulation, inside the little glass pot is a tightly packed loose
powder that feels a little bit creamy and moist. A black plastic inner cap
(that I live in fear of losing) keeps everything packed together nicely and
stops the pot getting too messy.
Number 24 is a stunning looking mixture of black and
gold with copper flecks. The colours swirl together for a beautiful result that
looks different in different lights, and depending on how much product you
apply. It can look bronze, blackened gold or, in some lights, a little bit
olive. The texture is divine: soft, creamy and easy to blend. But here's the
thing: it stays put ALL DAY LONG, no creasing, no
fallout, nothing. It's superb, and signals the start of a serious addiction!
As for the lipstick, Beige 111 is the ideal partner
for my Eyes To Kill. This sheer nude is the perfect new season shade and looks
amazing with neutrals, a slick of black liner or a smokey eye.
Part of the Easy Chic Autumn Collection, I've been
really impressed by the formula, too. It looks almost matte in the bullet but
it's glossy on the lips, and feels really soft and hydrating, thanks to
lightweight oils that lock in moisture without fading or feathering.
And the packaging? Seriously chic. The black
lacquered case is elegance itself, but add in the magnetic closure and I'm
swooning.
I was sent these by the brand but both the lipstick
and eyeshadow come in at €26, and I will most definitely be investing in more. These are Special with a capital S.
Have you tried anything from Giorgio Armani Beauty? Was
your mind blown, too?

The colour is wonderful. Looks especially great on you with your dark eyes and hair. Sometimes colours just wash away on darker haired ladies like you & I, but I can see that quite well and it gives a great tone to the face :)) May have to seek that out :))) Hope your weekend was bliss doll & your new week will be too! xx
This must be Good with a capital G, you must see & try soooo many products, so I'm getting that this is pretty major. Hugo is much better thanks!
Happy Monday Hun xoxo

Divine! So unfair the Galway BTs doesn't have an Armani counter!:(
The make-up looks very good on you! I've never tried any GA products mainly because they're not that established yet and around to be found. Would give it a try though!

the colour of the eyeshadow looks so wonderful, i really love that type of shade. the shade of the lipstick compliments your skin complexion too, you look amazing :) i'd love to try make-up from Gorgio Armani someday, they look fab. XO
I LOVE the armani lipsticks, they feel beautiful on and the little magnetic lid means they're kept safe in any cosmetic or handbag. Eyes to Kill are gorgeous too, great texture and finish. x
That eye shadow is beautiful and I love the natural lip color :)
Looks great on!
Thanks guys - I'm in love with both products! xo
Okay, these seriously look amazing on you Emma. The eye shadow is a lot lighter on than I had expected from the packaging. This looks like the perfect eye and lip combo for Autumn. The whole look just screams classy! I'll be adding these to my Autumn/Winter beauty wishlist!
