Review + Swatches: Giorgio Armani Rouge d'Armani Sheers Lipstick


When was in Amsterdam I also visited the beauty department from the Bijenkorf. I was a little bit overwhelmed because there were so many beauty products. 
You have different shop in shops from MAC, Giorgio Armani, Kiehls and many more. 
The shop in shop from Giorgio Armani catched my eye  immediately because in Maastricht and Hasselt they don't sell beauty products from Armani. 
My eye went immediatley to the Rouge D'Armani Sheers. 
The lady from the shop in shop was also very helpful and friendly, so it felt very luxurious.

I bought Rouge d'Armani Sheer in 511 Pink. The lipstick is not a bright pink, but a more a purple pink. 
On my lips it performed as a shiny lipstick. Which is very beautiful. It has not a lot of pigmentation, which you can see in the pictures. 
It's a very classy lipstick, which I really love because I don't have so much classy lipsticks in my collection. 
The packaging is also very beautiful with the logo from Giorgio Armani in the middle.

P.S.: The winner of my giveaway is

Finally I bought a Kiss Kiss Lipstick from Guerlain. They have redesigned the lipsticks and also reformulated.

It's an intense, creamy and full of shine lipstick. The lipstick is neither hydrating nor drying and lasted for 4-5 hours.

The lipstick costs $ 34/€ 36 and available at Douglas, Ici Paris XL and in their webshops.

Review + Swatches: Catrice Metallure Lip color "Alluring Pink"

 
When I saw this Catrice lipstick in Alluring Pink, it immediately catched my eye. 
I really love this packaging. It felt very glamorous for a brand like Catrice.

The packaging is rosé gold with white lines, which looks very nice. It felt something luxury in your hands, but it is still budget. Which I really like. 
For me the lipstick is more a addition to my basic lipstick stash. I also wanted to buy the red lipstick, but had to choose. 
You can wear this lipstick also on a daily base, because it's not a hot pink color.

The lipstick is pink with shimmering details, like you can see in the close-up. It doesn't hold that long, but that is no problem. 
The lipstick cost 3,99 euros.

 I'm really discovering the products from Catrice. 
So you can except more product reviews from this brand in the near future.

Review + Swatches: Givenchy Extravagancia Lip & Eye Pallet

 
When I saw this Extravagancia palette from the Givenchy Fall 2014 makeup collection, I was immediately in love.
It's really a great palette. It has 4 eye shadows and 1 lipstick in the pallet.
 
Eye shadows:
-Satiny Brown
- Satiny Purple
- Burnished Gold
- Shimmering Silver

Lipstick:
- Luminous Pink

I really loved the eye shadows. They're very shimmery, especially the "Burnished Gold" and the "Shimmering Silver".
The 4 eye shadows are more for an evening look, as you go to a party or a fancy drink.

The lipstick is not that strong, it's more a softer shade of lipstick.
As you can see on the pictures below, for me it's more a nude look on the lips.

The pallet is definitely a must buy, because you can also use it for New Year's Eve.

It costs € 62,50 ($66.00) and is available online and in perfumery's.

Hope you like the pallet as much as I do!
