Armani Privé Fall 2011 Couture Re-creation Attempt


I recently saw pictures of the Armani Privé Fall Couture Runway show and fell in love with the makeup. The makeup artist (Linda Cantello) who created this look said that the makeup was meant to be a nod toward Japan, without being a full-on Geisha look. And Mr. Armani himself "was emphatic that he didn't want any color on the face" (this is why you only see my eye). Of coarse Giorgio Armani cosmetics were used on the models. But, I don't have any of those items. So, I was going to used MAC. Then, I remembered that I have the Sleek Paraguaya palette and realized that it would be PERFECT for this look. Plus, because it's much more affordable, it's likely that many more of you have it in your possession. Anyway, this is what I did...

Current Lemmings

Lemming: An item or object (usually pertaining to beauty) that a person wants intensely or is obsessively interested in obtaining.


In no particular order...

1. MAC Ripe Peach Blush Ombre - I think that Ripe Peach would really suit my skin tone. Plus, I have all of the other Blush Ombres (even 2 Vintage Grape) and it would be nice to complete the collection.
2. Sleek blushes & i-Divine palettes - I currently have all of the permanent palettes and a fair few limited edition palettes. But I want them ALL, especially Bohemian. And, I only have one blush in Sahara.
3. Beaute Cosmetics Liquid-Gel Stains
4. Colored mascaras that actually show up - Although I know that colored mascaras show up on dark lashes when they're layered over white mascaras, I still wish that they would show up on their own. I have Urban Decay Big Fatty Colored Mascaras in every color (except for Purple Haze, because it was sold out) and the color shows up, but they don't do anything in the lengthening department. So, I'm a little underwhelmed. I guess that I'm just hard to please. LOL!
5. MAC PRO color Sour Lemon - I saw the picture below online a few months back & instantly became obsessed with recreating it (sad, I know). I've gotten everything (mostly through swaps on MuA) EXCEPT for Sour Lemon. I saved the picture & put a star on the shadows as I received them.

Feel free to tell me what you're lemming!
