Armani Easy Chic Fall 2012 Makeup

Simple and elegant, the fall 2012 Easy Chic makeup collection from Giorgio Armani has just a couple of new lipsticks and two gorgeous compacts.

Armani Face & Eye Palette in Neo-Black.

Neutral is the name of the game when it comes to the Face & Eye Palettes. Available in two harmonies, each one contains a face powder or blush on the first tier and a matching eyeshadow trio underneath. The Neo-Black palette (No. 1) consists of a Sheer Beige face powder while the satin eyeshadow shades are Soft Beige, Taupe and Jet Black.

The Neo-Brown palette (No. 2) has a Sheer Rose blush with Greige, Brown and Earth Brown eyeshadow colors. They're not revolutionary, but it helps to have essential, year-round colors in one place for the on-the-go woman. Plus, who can resist the ultra-silky textures? They're simply luxurious to the touch.

Rouge d'Armani in Beige 111.

For the lovely Rouge d'Armani Lasting Satin Lip Color lipsticks, three shades are presented for fall: Beige 111, Rouge 408 and Plum 526. The 8-hour formula provides decent coverage - I found it wearing off to a pretty stain after several hours. My favorite is Rouge 408, a semi-sheer rosewood red shade.

Beautiful -- and useful -- compact. Like Armani clothes, it never goes out of fashion, either.

Nope! I love all their compacts. So elegant and beautiful to use.
