LOL Casper. Ok this makes sense. They described it as a MLBB type of shade so it sounds like it fits the bill. I'm excited for mine to get here now - hopefully in the next day or two!

Mine arrived! Top swatch is in natural light by a window. Bottom is indoors. I actually find this to be quite a dark plum on my if I apply it full on. But if I dab it then blend it with my fingers, it's a gorgeous plummy mauve that looks pretty much like it does on the runway model I posted earlier.

Loving the neutral shades, hopefully they're not too shimmery.

Thank you for sharing
I saw the Holiday Collection yesterday and bought the Maestro Winter Glow and the Lip Maestro #414 Red Blood.
I am glad I checked the collection out in person because obviously Armani mixed up the names/numbers of the Lip Maestros.
#414 Red Blood is actually a deep burgundy red while the #634 Burgundy is a bright "true" red
I was also very excited for the Face & Eye Palette.Mostly for the powder but it turned out to be just a "plain" white powder.
I was hoping it would have a gorgeous glow.The eyeshadows have a great texture and are very pigmented.But the deep brown
was too warm on me for my liking and I just couldn' t justify to spend 110€ for only 2 eyeshadows even though I really loved the
other 2.And the bag is very pretty too.But still not worth 110€ for me.

My Holiday 2014 arrived yesterday. Love the shadows. I avoid brown eyeshadows, but these are really nice with the gray, goes on well and blends super. Bought the lipsticks in Blood Red and Burgundy, skipped the glosses. I did previously purchased the glosses in Spice, Orient and Sultan. The finishing powder in the compact works well as an eyeshadow and a cheek highlighter. I am intrigued by the ink eyeshadows. Wonder if they will be like the Kevyn Aucoin shadows with the roller ball applicator????

You're making me even more tempted to buy the palette...
The applicator for the new shadows is a sponge tip- if you click on the link in Naynadine's post, you can see more photos. It also gives the names of the shades available. My Spanish is pretty minimal, but I couldn't find any mention of whether these will be permanent or limited. Armani seems less prone than other brands to doing a formula that's limited, but they're also prone to deciding on the fly what will be limited and what will remain (according to the sales associates at my counter).
I'm curious to see the formula, which is apparently liquid to powder once applied. I'm allergic to a lot of cream shadows, but I think I might have to try this one. Usually, the drier/ more solid the formula, the easier it is for me to wear.

I really like the Holiday palette. I am using it today. I like it much more then I do Nude Dip by TF. You can go over the top or a soft gentle look. I have no regrets in this purchase. I went with the lipstick over the matte glosses based on SA's claiming it is really hard to see the difference in the two glosses. I also find using the matte glosses takes more work.

I received an email (as one of the people whose orders were confirmed, then cancelled) that stated that more would be coming- and that I'd been placed on a waitlist for first access.rouge ecstasy
Urban Nude #603
Looks like it's available again for sale.
That's fair, Armani.

This seems to have been a bit of a mystery. It was in the press information for the collection but no one seems to have seen it.Hello everyone !. Have any of you spotted this ? its called winter glow and is a pigment free shade of maestro that was supposed to be released for christmas 2014 orient excess and i cant find it anywhere :/.
Its very strange :/. looks to be a cool product.

How are you liking the lipsticks ? The last Armani item that I ordered was the Belladonna Highlighter---so it's been a minute.

Yes, I do like the lipsticks. I had never gotten into them before. Until I purchased the ODO lipstick in 603. I actually like it, I can control the depth of color, from a lip stain to full blown color. It also seems to help soothe the lips. Yes, winter is nearly upon us. Perhaps some of you could help me???? I really like this palette. Does the Holiday Palette work for people of color (besides being Casper like me)????? My concern is the finishing powder. Yes, I use it for a highlighter for eyes and cheeks. I have a good friend who has this lovely shade of Cafe Au Lait skin color. I would like to give this to her, but at the same time I do not want to offend her. Latina women have gorgeous skin, how does a product with such a white powder work for them? Nope, she does live near me. So going shopping and picking her brain would not work.....
