I ended up getting all 3 of the lip sheers from this collection. Here are the swatches on me. I agree 624 is deep but I find if you dab and rub it in with your finger, you can get a more wearable stain. Here are the swatches on me. HTH.

I passed on the first one, but I did purchase 524 and 624. I have found if you glaze over the 624 with the lipgloss 700 it looks goods. Have any of you tried the new mascara? I saw it at Neimans and have too many black mascaras already. I was intrigued by the other, but then I remembered Tom Ford Mocha Rush I had just bought, and thought they were pretty close to the other two. Since Neimans won't have TF in the store until November, I couldn't see for sure. Need to bring my own to check this out. I ordered 406 gloss and I love it. Got it from Armani website. It is so sparkly and just plain cool....I did digging in my stash for the 509 dupe. It is the Chanel creme blush. Exact same color.

This sounds exciting:

MFW Makeup Edition | Giorgio Armani SS/15 | ommorphia beauty bar

As of this season (Spring/Summer 2015), Giorgio Armani Beauty will be making the products formulated backstage at the Armani Runway Lab, available for the first time to its customers.
The Armani Runway Makeup Collection is a range of 3 products in exclusive shades: a couture face-and-eye palette, a lipstick, and a nail lacquer. All are born live backstage and will become available to the public only 6 months later. For the very first time, the makeup seen on the Armani runway will be available at selected stores at the same time as the matching collections, twice a year (as in Spring/Summer and again for Fall/Winter). Therefore, the Giorgio Armani Spring/Summer 2015 Runway Makeup Collection will be available for purchase as of February 2015.
I read that the packaging will be beige with grey accents.

I've read conflicting information on this, so I'm hoping someone knows:

Are all of the Eye & Brow Maestros permanent, or are some LE? If so, which ones?

I wore the red product as a root touch-up today- I need to stock up on it!

They are permanent, except for gold, and one other. I will ask my go to person at Neimans and find out which other one. It might be the red one....do you like them? Did you purchase the special brush for them?

Perfect, thank you! I've seen up to 4 of them listed as LE some places and all permanent others. I knew someone here would have the answer, or be able to get it.

I adore them. The red is a perfect match for my hair at the moment, and I haven't touched any of my ABH brow products since discovering it. I've also used it to fill in my roots framing my face. I've also used the dark blonde and greige as eyeshadows, and they work wonderfully. I've got my eyes on a couple others since they're that easy to use!

I ended up purchasing the brush. I was wasting too much product trying to use my existing brow brushes. I find that I have better control, but you can probably get a similar result with a smooth, synthetic brow brush. It was the spooley end that was killing my product. With the Armani brush, I can pick up just a little bit of the eye & brow maestro and comb through for a light, natural look. I couldn't get that same effect with other spooleys. (OK, as natural as that bright red can be!)

Thanks so much, I am going over the Neimans next week and will check it out. Hopefully the young lady in Armani will get back to me long before that. I will check it out. And find out exactly which ones will be limited.

I decided to get the Armani Luminous Foundation. I don't know if the shade is quite right. I bought #10 but then thought maybe #9 would be better. They are very different. I might be between shades or my tan has not completely faded as I thought. I'm not sure what I should do. I put on #9 today and was afraid it was too light so I mixed in the Maestro foundation I usually use. Maybe I should just mix #9 and #10.

The 2 eye and brow cremes and the eyebrow brush are next on my list.

Anyone has rouge ectasy 100 ? it looks like a pretty nude 
I don't have that one specifically but I highly recommend the formula. I think that if you like photos of it, you'd probably like it in person. Despite not being opaque, I find that these swatch very accurately.

Here's this year's holiday palette, or at least the shadows: http://www.perilouslypale.com/2014/10/giorgio-armani-orient-excess-holiday-2014-collection-orient-excess-palette-review-photos-swatches.html And here are the three Rouge Ecstasy" lipsticks introduced with the second fall collection: http://ommorphiabeautybar.com/2014/10/20/giorgio-armani-beauty-rouge-ecstasy-404-spice-405-sultan-406-orient-all-limited-edition/ These same shades are also available in The liquid lipstick Maestro formula (see earlier swatches from the same blog). I cannot tell a lie, I want all three. I'm just trying to decide which ones I want in which formula.

I got all 3 of the new lip glosses. Love them all. Just bought the one day only lipstick at the website. It was listed for 88.00, then dropped to 34.00 when I checked out.

I knew nothing about that lipstick, got the email today at 11am, went to buy it shortly after and it was already sold out. Would love to know what you think of it and if you know anything more about it. Why are they selling such an amazing color for 1 day only?!?

I went to website last night to check it out and they had this thing about one day one for a shade. Didn't say what it was, as in eye, lip, cheek, etc. This morning, I went back around 6 am, and it was showing the lipstick at 88.00. I waited until the clock ticking went to zero and the price dropped to 34.00. It should be here by Tuesday....will post a swatch

I just went on the site, it is still in stock. Hope this helps it is 4:00 pm CDT
I was just about to come here and say the same thing @ashievic ;-) I just ordered the lipstick so @boschicka if you still want it, hurry and get it! It looks really pretty actually, although they don't give you a clear swatch of it. There are a few glimpses of it in this promo video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-y9St0IclA#t=43
