L-R: 501, 502, 503, 504, 200, 202, 300, 400, 401, 201
Thankfully, my swatches of the new Giorgio Armani Lip Maestro Matte Lacquer are infinitely better compared to the Burberry ones. Apologies for the messy numbering. The lip glosses were scattered around the counter and I swatched it all before I was told that I missed #201.
I couldn't test these out at the counter because I had to go for a facial immediately after and the SA mentioned it was really staining. My impression based on swatching is that these are really creamy, equal to or better than the Guerlain Rouge G L'Extraits. Without trying it, I cannot say if it will be drying.
The Lip Maestros are now available online at Nordstrom. I swatched the above at Saks Fifth Avenue New York.
Oh gosh, these look heavenly! Amazing swatches!

Those dark reds are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI was kinda hoping there would be a neutral/blue-toned red, but still. Definitely picking one up when it comes out here (December) to see how the formula works!
ReplyDelete#400 is one!
DeleteI like 400 the best! It's out of my price-point, but interesting nonetheless.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping the Bellevue counter will have these by this weekend, as my mom will be in town and we're going shopping :) I kind of want 201. Brown and all.
ReplyDeleteshopping with mom! Eee definitely try it first
DeleteEmbarrassingly excited for these, especially the lack of Rouge Tampon packaging.
ReplyDeletethanks, xiao! i've been hesitant to try the guerlain extrait b/c of price, but since these are the same price as ysl vernis a levres, i feel a little more justified trying these out :)
Deletei wonder how my reply got attached to a comment about rouge tampons! ACK! :D
DeleteThese look gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHoly god, soulmate. *swoons*
ReplyDeleteOh wow the first one really caught my eye! Thanks for sharing xx
ReplyDeleteSOOO pretty! Can't wait to check these out!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I really love 502 & 504!
ReplyDelete501 looks gorgeous, like a cooler version of Macs old bare slimshine. I'm loving the oranges, too.
ReplyDeleteThese look beautiful! I love 503 and 401.
ReplyDeleteI'm loving far too many of these, but I will need to find out if they're drying before I buy one (or more). I have lips that dry out far too easily to risk spending this much money on something I can't wear :(
ReplyDeleteLove it! there are really good, this is my post from lip maestro 501 if you want to check it out. http://icegirlventura.blogspot.com.es/2012/11/lip-maestro-501-armani.html
ReplyDeleteoh god, i love liquid lipsticks. how do you think these compare in texture and opacity to shiseido lacquer rouge?
ReplyDeletethese dry matte! Not sure about opacity since I haven't tried either on the lips :(
DeleteOh, you missed the only one I bought - 402!
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup for the beautiful swatches. Lord knows I'm mad for mattes. 503, 504 such gorgeous reds.
