Giorgio Armani Beauty Bronze All-Over Palette

When you went to the Giorgio Armani Web site to look at the Flash Lacquers, did you see this? I nearly died. The Bronze All-Over Palette ($88) was a complete surprise to me - and I'm the one who's supposed to know what's coming. I've even seen photos of upcoming releases!

Inspired by pleated lamé, this allover bronzer is this summer's must-have. Use all over for a sun-illuminated complexion.

Needless to say, there's one on the way to me, along with three Flash Lacquer Shades. I wanted one lip shade that probably hasn't arrived (Notify Me), but I'll get it soon enough - and more I'm sure. I had to order. Do you feel that way too?

is this the palette with the 3 eyeshadows too? i wish we had an armani counter here. do you think this will be "suitable" for fair skin tones? so far, everything is way too dark for me even with a very light hand including estee lauder and guerlain .i was at nordstroms yesterday and although most counters still have spring collections out, ysl had their summer collection out. "my" store is considered a "c" store and it's very limited. ysl had more than 2 pieces missing and they were not sold out. thankyou for posting and happy sunday to you!!! xxxxxwendy. p.s. did you see chantecaille's collection yet? and, i only saw 1 image from tom ford's. i saw bobbi brown's from "literature" that the sales associate provided.

Wendy, I wish I knew! Will find out later today.

I posted Chantecaille's collection months ago. :)

My thoughts exactly!

The bronzer is called Amber Glow and is up on Armani's website. There is a lovely promo picture accompanying it and shows the model wearing a dark bronze eye and orange-red lips. For some reason Armani has been flying under the radar with this one.

Hi Anonymous@12:11,

Yes, it is a double decker palette with three eyeshadows--bronze, peachy pink, and golden ivory. Beautezine has a picture of it.

Hi CG,

I bought three of the new flash lacquers. I couldn't wait for your reviewe. I bought 202, 303, and 519. I wanted 608 but it isn't in stock yet. I bought one from each of the 3 categories so I can compare and contrast. What colors did you buy? I saw the bronzer and the Armani rep I talked to yesterday told me about it. He said they would have it in the store this week. I didn't buy it online so I'll eagerly await your review. I'm curious about whether it will be too dark for my fair skin. Anyway, I can't wait to read your thoughts on the lip glosses as well as the bronzer.

@eileen...thankyou!! for everyone...does this collection remind you of chanel's summer collection last year? this collection seems so effortless and very neutral compared to other collections coming up....do you agree? has anyone tried their waterproof eyeliners? also, has anyone tried their eyes to kill mascara? @jo....i sure hope this works for fair complexions. @ charleston girl....i did read your post on chantecaille. i never miss your posts!!! only skincare stuff? no eyes and lippies?? is the shark pallette suppose to be for summer too? reading your review last year, prompted me to buy their gorgeous "fruit-themed" lip glosses. none this year?? xoxoxo wendy.

Charlestongirl said...

Me either, Dovey! It's very early, BTW, for a summer release from Armani.

Hey everyone,

Here is the link Eileen referenced: http://www.beautezine.com/giorgio-armani-summer-2013-face-eye-palette/

Every year, Armani does a bronze summer collection. It always has face and eyes. I am surprised it's out this early this year.

Wendy, there is Chantecaille summer color: http://bestthingsinbeauty.blogspot.com/2013/01/coming-attraction-chantecaille-summer.html.

Clarisse said...

What a gorgeous palette....we only some sun to enjoy it...(so dreary and cold here!)

Clarisse said...

Sorry, Charlestongirl, I forgot the verb: we only "need" some sun....

wendy said...

thankyou charleston girl!!! i cannot believe i missed that and i just signed up for email subscription too!! i think this pallette would look awesome with 1 of the new chantecaille waterproof eyeliners and their new coral spf lippie AND the coral-y cheek color. ok, logging off and looking for another job! i was concerned there would be nothing to wear on my face! huh!! how wrong i was!!! xoxo to you!! wendy.
