I am positively in love with the "face" palette. It's super expensive but I caved and had to have it. Here's my review if anyone wants to read about it.

I was just coming to post your review! I'm very much torn, because as beautiful as it is, I have the Blush G, which looks fairly similar. I missed out on the Chanel blush you swatched with it, though and I've always felt badly about that. It's really going to come down to how much I have to spend on things after I've bought gifts for everyone...

I love all three blushes. They are probably my three favorite blushes that I own--along with Inspiration. Blush G is just a touch redder and Horizon is a touch pinker. But both Blush G and Horizon can be "customized" a little bit more than Eccentrico can. Eccentrico has the nicest formula, in my opinion. It's like, velvety soft. So, creamy and buttery--that you would just want to sit and touch it all day long. They are all similar--but not the same. If I were pressed, I'd say Eccentrico is probably closer to Horizon than to Blush G.

I love the lip mastros! I have #400 & #500. I tried on the bright colors and they are "loud" but very pretty! I was real close to getting the pink one and I'll probably go back and get it in the Spring, no point in buying it now when I'm not going to wear it anytime soon.

How do we feel about a little springtime highlighter pr0n?

http://www.britishbeautyblogger.com/2013/12/giorgio-armani-spring-2014-effetto-nudo.html

My first thought is that it the colour looks a lot like Chanel's Poudre Signe powder from last spring. My second thought is that I don't care, because the palette itself is so lovely and I'm always curious to try a new formula.

Also, I'm a sucker for highlighters.

Thank you for sharing, katred!

It looks pretty but I am not sure yet whether I will get it.It might not "wow" me enough to spend so much money on it.
But, as you said, it might also be the formula that makes want to try it!

Hmmm, I have enough highlighters like that, so I'll pass. Can't say it's not tempting, though. lol

Thanks so much for sharing this. I really like it but if it is priced like the Eccentrico blush, I am not getting it.
I really promised myself not spending "unreasonable" amounts to a piece of makeup, which everyone defines herself I guess but with 6 g of product for 80€ Armani blush was way over definition of reasonable for many I suppose

I like the look of purple lippie and wonder how close to MAC Up The Amp it is...

I am highly enjoying the lip maestros and have 3 of them.

I'm wondering if the lipsticks might be the sheer formula. It's been a while since they introduced new shades in that range.

EDIT: Yup, looks like they're sheers!

I am absolutely in love with the soft look the model is wearing in the promo pic! I'm going to try and imitate that next spring! Yep yep!

I'll pass the spring highlighter because I think it will be expensive, and it looks like the Chanel spring 2013 highlighter to me, although I passed it as well. The lippies look very pretty.

Has anyone tried the blushing fabrics?Any favourites?
The "almost skin-like finish" really intrigues me since I don't like powder blushes...

They're a really strange texture, the best I could describe it is almost like a dry liquid lol. I have Sicilian Orange and I really like it. The finish definitely looks very natural but you have to be careful to apply them lightly bc they are super pigmented

I'm really tempted to buy every item. I must resist. Must resist.
