Acqua Eyes At Giorgio Armani. Spring 2013

Blue-eyed beauties are a major trend from the Spring 2013 shows, and the oceanic lids at Giorgio Armani blew us away. "Mr. Armani shows me the shapes and colors - I immediately envision the makeup look," said Linda Cantello, International Makeup Artist for Giorgio Armani Cosmetics. He often loves graphic shapes, but this time we rendered the look sexy, with a soft matte grey eye, and a touch of light turquoise blue liner. Fake lashes soften the graphic shape and adds sensuality."

Linda started off by moisturizing the skin with the new
Crema Nera Extrema and Crema Nera eye compact to keep the skin radiant. Then, she used Maestro Foundation for a luminous matte finish to the skin with Maestro Eraser under the eyes and to cover any redness around the nose. She set the skin with Luminos Silk Powder to keep the skin matte.

To create the stunning eye, Linda first applied the gray shadow from the Eyes to Kill Eyeshadow Quad #1 all over the lid and on the inner corner of the eye and blended it to the outer corner creating a geometric shape. Next, she mixed the blue shade from the Spring Collection 2013 Palette #1 with water. She used that to create a thick aqua line on the eye lid just above the lash line. Then she lined the eyes with Mastro Liquid Eye Liner in Black. She topped off the eyes with multiple coats of black Eyes to Kill Lash Stretching Mascara. To balance the colorful eye, she kept the lips natural looking with a touch of Rouge d'Armani Sheers from the Spring Collection 2013

Prive Colletction 2012-2013 Fall Winter. Giorgio Armani

Giorgio Armani’s beauty line is pure luxury. For fall/winter 2012/13, Giorgio Armani draws a “no complex” style for confident women who play with men dress codes humourously.

The collection shows contrasts with these eccentric but still classic women suits, mixing bright and vibrant colours: poppy, orange and fuchsia with grey shades, on Prince of Wales, velvet, silk or organza. The silhouettes go from iron-creased bermuda shorts to skirts and dresses with a precise but edgy design, set off with felt hats and toned down by flat shoes.

As a contrast to these silhouettes, Linda Cantello, international make-up artist, imagines for Giorgio Armani a pale matte skin, subtly rock and glamourous. “Clothes were very colourful, so we imagined with M. Armani a monochrome face, with no blush or contour.” Inspired by the 80′s, the make-up is matte black and white. A new conception of smokey eye, with a matte black neo classic look.

HOW TO CREATE THE NEW ARMANI MAKE-UP LOOK EASY CHIC

Apply Luminessence, the new brightening and anti-dark spots skincare range, to regenerate skin’s light and to obtain a defaultless matte result. Smooth Maestro concealer under the eyes.

The smokey eye is reinvented with a black shadow swept around the eye in a teardrop shape, stretched to the inside of the eyelid and under the eye. The colour is defined and softened with a white liner applied on top of the upper eyelid emphasizing the C shape. The anthracite grey pencil #4 is faded with a brush on the arch of the eyebrow, the latter being emphasized with a black pencil.

To contrast and soften the look, a matte soft dusty rose, Rouge d’Armani #526, is applied on the lips with the fingertips.

Emporio Armani Spring Summer 2013 Women's Show. Precious Metals Look.

MILAN — Gold-flecked eyes by makeup artist Linda Cantello and natural tresses by hairstylist Franco Gobbi lent an individualistic, fresh spirit at the spring 2013 Emporio Armani show.

Cantello, using Giorgio Armani Cosmetics, started with Maestro Fusion Makeup SPF15. Soft, gold brush strokes framed the eyes. “It’s a lovely hint of eclecticism and a subtle, new way to make the eyes pop," she said.

Lips were dashed with Shade 101 from a nude-tone Rouge d'Armani Sheer lipstick line that bows in spring 2013.

“Structured in a super-fresh, natural way,” hairstylist Franco Gobbi said of the shimmery hair, which was freshly-washed and treated with a mix of silicone serum and light Moroccan oil. After a low, side part was made, hair was tucked behind the ears.

Hair fasteners in variegated leather and buckles were clipped at the back of the head, sourced from the Emporio Armani 2013 accessory line.

New Releasing October 2012. 8 Years Research. MAESTRO Foundation. Giorgio Armani

MAESTRO
weightless perfection | more than foundation

Ten years ago, Giorgio Armani changed the face of make-up creating Luminous Silk foundation, a lightweight, silky fluid that brings a natural glow. Since then, weightless textures that you can blend and layer indefinitely to enhance your radiance became the signature Armani Glow.

The expectations of women have always been at the heart of Giorgio Armani Beauty Research. The quest for transparency and coverage in a foundation seemed up until now practically unsolvable.

In 2012, after eight years of research, Giorgio Armani Cosmetics introduces a new revolutionary foundation.

An unforgettable and unique texture created by patented Fusion Technology. An ultra-fine oil-pigment suspension that perfects the complexion. This high slip fluid spreads evenly over skin for a blendable, faultless complexion
worthy of a professional make-up artist every time.

Maestro instantly ignites skin’s natural luminosity. No make-up feel guaranteed.


It’s a whole new generation of foundation that feels incredible, looks invisible and makes skin appear luminous every time. Anyone can wear it!!!

Linda Cantello
International Make-up Artist for Giorgio Armani Cosmetics


FUSION MAKEUP
breaking the rules of formulation | the creation of a blendable, ultra-thin oil-pigment suspension

Traditional foundations are usually emulsions with water in oil containing fillers; those fillers can produce a visible masking effect. Maestro was created with five out-of-the box principles, delivering a result never seen before:
a water and powder-free base
totally non-comodogenic
5 time-released oils evaporating gradually
smart pigment technology
an easy, fast, fresh and flawless application with an unforgettable sensory feel

The Fusion make-up technology delivers the thinnest color film that blends perfectly and corrects skin imperfections without buildup.

5 OILS
an exceptional selection | the perfect alchemy

Oils are necessary for pigments to spread on the skin surface. Giorgio Armani Cosmetics evaluated the different oils on the criteria of density, volatility, nutrition and blending.

Five volatile, semi-volatile and non-volatile oils have been selected one-by-one to create a precious clear mixture totally miscible presenting a time release action. Evaporating at different rates it provides an optimal combination of application slip and non-greasy feel, but with a moisture and comfort sensation all day long.

The volatile “dry-oil” awakens skin with an immediate feeling of freshness, a cushiony oil provides a featherlight, glide-on textural sensation and a perfectly even distribution of the complexion perfecting pigments film.

The non-volatile complex, including extracts of the lotus oil, which has anti-free radical properties and hydrating agents, remains on skin surface.

MAESTRO vs TRADITIONAL FOUNDATION

Characteristics of a traditional foundation:
emulsion – 20% water in 80% oil. Foundation allows for a unified spreading of the fluid in order to avoid spots of color.

BUT:
highly pigmented: 15% pigments. Pigments are contained in powdery phase that can create a mask effect.
high surface tension: hard to spread, not even on the skin surface.

Characteristics of Maestro:
water-free oils: 60% time-release translucent, non greasy oils for a fresh feel, a non-greasy finish and a pure color.
11% pigments for skin tone perfection. No powder so no mask effect.
low surface tension: for the fastest, easiest application.

Extras:
skin surface perfection due to soft particles selected to provide the thinnest correcting film and an extraordinary sensory feel.
contains lotus oil, known for its anti-free radical properties.

DROP-BY-DROP APPLICATION
made-to-measure coverage

An elliptical shaped bottle and luxurious, black lacquered dropper delivers the fusion make-up drop by drop for custom-controlled make-up application. The liquid, ultra-fine texture immediately blends into the skin on application. Easy to apply, easy to build, easy to wear. Maestro gives rapid and perfect make-up results every time.




SMART PIGMENT TECHNOLOGY
with fault-proof color result | just a few shades to fit all skin tones

The Maestro foundation is adapted to all skin tones around the world. The smart pigments are so fine that they fuse with the natural skin color. They are so fine and pure, that the rays of light will not be absorbed on the skin but there is a reflexion of the light, a perfect 360 degrees radiance. It might seem paradoxical that only a few shades are enough to cover the full range of skin tones but it becomes possible with the transparency of Maestro formula.

12 shades are available in USA and 9 in the rest of the world.

A new foundation as light as water, but waterless and perfectly homogeneous for no make-up feel and a moisture sensation.

Fall Collection 2012. Giorgio Armani
