Giorgio Armani Night Queen
The latest Armani makeup collection was inspired by the beautiful and dark night sky. The collection includes deep shades of blue, purple, berry balanced by soft pink shades to transform you into a stunning night queen. I think all the items are very appealing, but being a fan of pinks and purple shades, the one I’m most drawn to is the new Eyes To Kill Palette in Twilight Hues. At the center, it has a heart of satin-finish mauve, in the middle we find an ink black shade with a satin finish as well, while the outer circle is a beautiful metallic aubergine.
The other eyeshadow palette in this collection is beautiful too. It is called Night Queen Eyeshadow palette and features intense blue, dark cocoa, light brown and light silver shades perfect to create evening looks. I’m also lemming the Cheek Color Blush Duo, which contains two pretty pink shades, one lighter than the other. What can I say? I’m a sucker for pink blushes.
Time to focus on the lips. The Night Queen Lipgloss is available in 4 colors - black purple, lavish red, sharp pink and nude rose -, while the Night Queen Lipstick in 3 (deep ruby, soft pink and black purple). I’m gonna close with another favourite of mine, the nail polish. I’m not sure what the shade is called but it is a stunning dark and intense blue, just the kind of color I like for my nails.
Nars Fall 2010
Wow, isn’t Nars Fall collection gorgeous? I’ve always been a fan of Nars and liked their past offerings, but this time I’m truly impressed by everything. The collection features sexy, daring and decadent shades that capture the old-Hollywood meets futuristic look. That’s not an easy task but I think Nars has accomplished it beautifully.
My favourite item from the collection is undoubtedly the Soft Touch Shadow Pencil in Palladium, ($24.00) a beautiful bright turquoise with silver glitter that reminds me of the ocean, followed by the Lip Gloss in Strawberry Fields ($24.00), a beautiful bright and pigmented strawberry pink. For the lips, there’s also a lipstick in Rouge Basque ($24.00), a creamy and deeply pigmented brick red shade.
In addition, the collection includes 3 new single eyeshadows ($23.00 each) and 2 duos ($32.00 each). The singles are available in Coconut Grove (deep taupe brown), Daphne (deep violet) and Mangrove (soft yellow-green, sheer and wearable). As for the duos, we have Rajasthan, featuring a metallic beige and a metallic black charcoal, and Tzarine, which includes a Platinum gold infused wit gold and silver reflections and steel grey. Finally, the cheeks. The Blush in Douceur ($26.00) is a soft pink-brown shade that imparts a honeyed brown flush to the face.

Stavroula Plag´s last [type] ..Random Tip of the Day 27072010
Stavroula Plag, the eyeliner is a favourite of mine, love the color as well. The purple eyeshadow looks so promising in the photo, but after seeing swatches I’m a bit disappointed it’s not as pigmented as I had thought. Shame cos the color’s beautiful.
I love blue-ish purple colors, they look great on me!
Whoa it’s a Nars eyeshadow (aka expensive) and it’s not very pigmented? :/ Btw Stavroula is my name, Plag is the beginning of my surname! 
(I’m saying that because I noticed you’re calling me Stavroula Plag and not just Stavroula)

Stavroula Plag´s last [type] ..Review – Revlon LE Bare Bronze Face Powder
Stavroula, I guess it depends on the eyeshadows. I have a Nars eyeshadow duo and the shades are very pigmented and so are most of their duos and singles. But sometimes, you come across a Nars eyeshadow that’s sheer. I guess it’s because some people are scared of colors so they wanna make them more wearable but still, I’m disappointed.
Oops, sorry for that. I’m just used calling everyone with the full nickname they use to post. I’ll just use your name from now on.
GA Twilight Hues is gorgeous! Love the lilac in the middle and purple on the outermost circle!
And NARS Fall is beautiful. Love Palladium! Daphne and Mangrove look pretty too.

Vonvon, I knew you were gonna love Twilight Hues hehe, you’re a sucker for purples just like me. But it’s really a beautiful palette.
I really like Daphne and Mangrove from the promo photo but the swatches disappointed.
Palladium instead is even more beautiful than I thought. 
Palladium is awesome!
