Giorgio Armani’s Celebrity Face Designer, Tim Quinn, calls Boca Raton home…when he can get here! Usually he’s jetting between fashion shows around the world, award shows, celebrity appearances and magazine interviews, but fortunately he tries to make it back here often enough to keep the locals looking gorgeous.
Last time he was in town for a Saks event, we discussed the latest looks and new additions to the Armani Cosmetics line.
“It’s all about ethereal glowing skin,” said Quinn. “And we have some amazing new additions to our skincare line.”
Luminessence Bright Regenerator Concentrate is a dynamic triple threat: anti-dark spot, anti-wrinkle, pore corrector, as is the Luminessence Bright Primer Essence-in-Lotion which moisturizes, smoothes and evens tone.
Also premiering is Regenessence {3.R} HIGH LIFT, Multi-Firming Rejuvenating Rich Cream, which reduces wrinkles, firms and reshapes. Known as the Skin’s Elasticity Recreator, it will lift skin by 8 degrees according to clinical studies. And Regenessence {3.R} HIGH LIFT also offers a Multi-Firming Eye Balm that nourishes and conditions the eye area for a smoother, more supple appearance.
There is serious science behind these ultra-luxurious feeling creams!
Perfecting the glowing skin look are Armani’s foundations, which do more that just cover flaws. For example, the Designer Lift foundation smoothes and firms while supplying an SPF of 20.
With the “canvas” now looking flawless, it’s time to add some glamour. Let’s begin with the lips.
“It’s all about sheer color,” he explained. “Pinks, corals, reds and purples. The Rouge Armani Sheers are not so wet and glossy looking, it’s a sheer sheen that’s really beautiful.”
The softer look also works for eyes, as Quinn said, “It’s all about light, not dark. Look for pastel eyes, think sea shells and the golds and the coppers of sand. The new Spring Collection 2012 Eye Palettes have a beautiful radiance that adds a special luminosity to the eye.”
