Yes, this is the Fall collection. Some Holiday info was posted in the Tom Ford thread recently.

I just got the Rouge d'Armani in 609 and it is truly stunning. Its dark and vampy and has this lovely glossy look to it. The formula is perfect. It goes on really smoothly and now that I've been wearing it for a half hour or so, I don't really even feel it. This is dangerous. I want them all now.

You do. It's my new favorite. It's really obviously vampy on me, but it doesn't look harsh at all and it's just gorgeous. I also found that it's pretty transfer-resistant. I had a glass of wine and it barely budged at all. I seriously want all the colors now, this is my new favorite formula.....I have to find it find it somewhere!

This is really close to how it looks on me

Buying Armani lipsticks is highly dangerous. They are addictive and what's worse (?) is that they're extremely consistent. I've never found one that didn't live up to the others.

The Boudoir Eyes palette is beautiful! I haven't bought it yet, but I swatched it in the store and I loved it. I'm considering Scarab Violetta, but it might be a little too cool for me, so I need to swatch it at the counter.
I have my eyes on one of the CCs next. I plan on cutting down on my MAC lipstick buying so I can get more of these. The formula is just a million times better and I find it's much more comfortable to wear than any of my other lipsticks.

I bought Scarab Violetta 2 weeks ago but haven't worn it. Thanks for the looks, I'm going to try using it tomorrow. I only have MP, and I have been eyeing the Boudoir Eyes palette for a while.

I've fallen in love with the Maestro compact After using it a few days. First off, none of the ingredients are known to be comedogenic, which is rare for a cream-like foundation.
It doesn't seem like this was meant to be caked on. I like it most when you take a little on the brush, dab it on, and then blend it out in a circular motion to a wider area. It doesn't work well if you try and paint it on in strokes as it just sits on the skin.
The coverage is actually a good light-medium... more towards medium but not mask-like in the least.

A blogger already picked up some products from Holiday collection and took a real photo of the highlighter here: http://www.heypretty.ch/eccentrico-giorgio-armani-holiday-collection/ I asked her in the comments what is on the second tier and she said nothing but a half moon brush. :-(( I am really disappointed since this is so pretty but they are selling it at the price of a Face&Eye palette but it has only a highlighter. I sometimes thing if Mr. Armani is making fun of us, trying to understand how much we are ready to splurge, especially after the nail polishes which retailed for the same price as Chanl/Dior for half the product.
Yeah, I thought it was a highlighter. It's kind of misleading with the overspray, but I do like the colours that are underneath, the pink is super pretty.

Me too!I personally like the blush better without the overspray
The colors are much more vibrant
After seeing it like that, I gulped and I knew my purse will get lighter once I see it in real

It reminds me of the Guerlain Blush G or Madame Rougit finally. It's a pretty colour, but I can't justify the expense.I personally like the blush better without the overspray
The colors are much more vibrant
T also put up a review of the Eccentrico Lip Maestro, which is a lot prettier than I'd counted on. It's not quite as cool-toned as it looked in the promo photos, at least it doesn't seem to be. So that will at least warrant a look, I think.

I was tempted by the blush/highlighter until I saw the price. So dissappointed that there is only one product in the palette. A separate real highlighter on the second tier probably would have sold me on the palette. Now I keep repeating to myself " I do not need a $88 blush no matter how pretty it is."
