Giorgio Armani Summer 2011



Summer is all about achieving a subtle and sexy bronzed look. This is the look Armani have gone for this summer, with the stunning Megan Fox as the face of the look, and lets face it, she absolutely nails it. The collection is all about earth tones, from eyes to face and finally lips.

First up in the collection is, Palette Eyes Quartet in "Bronze Heat". This palette contains colours suitable for every skin tone, and can enhance any colour eyes. As you already know I am a big fan of browns and soft goldy hues for the summer, so naturally this would be my cup of tea, but not something I will be purchasing as I have way too many palettes of these combining colours. I do love the neat packaging, its so sleek. Also a really handy compact to carry around and top up throughout the day if needed.



Next up to help you achieve a nice glowing complexion, is the Giorgio Armani Blushing Fabric. This is a cheek stain, that applies like a second skin for a natural look and feel. It comes in a handy tube and is available in two fabulous shades, Sienna and Desert Rose. I personally love the look of Sienna, and i am very interested in trying this new creation from Armani, I love a nice liquid blush for summer.


The final piece in this collection, is Giorgio Armani Lipstick. Four Fab shades, all contained in a beautiful python inspired case. Easy to carry around, with a compact mirror inside, which means you can easily change your lippy colour as many times in the day as you want, handy when you have that unplanned trip to the beer garden after work on a nice summer evening. There are four gorgeous shades in both Neutral and Bright shades, Rouge Sienne, Sable Rouge, Corail BrulĂ©, and Beige Dune. 

This collection didn't exactly get me as excited as previous Armani collections, or as other summer collections available this year. The only purchase i may make from this collection is the Blushing Fabric, and thats cause i love a lightweight natural blush for summer. 

So what do you think of the collection? Is there anything here that would tickle your fancy for summer??

  1. Hmm, it looks nice but amazingly I am not experiencing an overwhelming urge to go and buy it. Maybe its the packaging?

  2. For me its the colours just seem very same ole, like i have so many palettes with them colours in them. The python packaging is pretty cool, but still would not tempt me
