Giorgio Armani Ecstasy Shine Lipsticks

A few weeks ago, Giorgio Armani launched their new Ecstasy Shine lipstick range! Available in 18 colors, these high-shine lipsticks moisturize like a balm, while having a very light texture and intense color payoff.

The formula is truly one of a kind, it melts on the skin upon application. The texture is very thin and lightweight, I've never tried something like that! It feels a bit like a dry oil on the lips, it's not thick or sticky.

Surprisingly, the Ecstasy Shine lipsticks are great for hydrating and softening the lips!

Now, the scent may not be for everyone. It's quite strong and sometimes it can even taste a bit perfumey. But aside from that, I do enjoy the formula!

They are highly pigmented but translucent at the same time, so they let your natural lip color peek through.

The colors are definitely buildable, one swipe and I get a sheer wash of color with a slightly shiny finish. I can apply more if I want an intense color, it isn't 100% opaque but still highly pigmented.

The shades 300 and 500 left a stain on my lips, and they lasted a good 4-5 hours (although the shine was pretty much gone at this point), while the color 100 didn't stain my lips and only lasted 2 hours on me so I needed to apply it more often.

None of these shades accentuated dry skin or settled into my fine lines!
