Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Gloss Review & Swatches

This was provided to me by a brand for review but all opinions expressed are my own

Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Gloss

I loved Guerlain Gloss d�Enfer Maxi Shine when I tried it earlier this Spring but Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Gloss is topping my HG (holy grail) list at the moment and I’m urging you to try these out as soon as possible.

I think you’ll love them as much as I do!

Take a look!

Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Lipgloss

I probably can’t afford to buy every single one of the Giorgio Armani Glash Lacquer Crystal Shine Glosses ($29) but I’ll have fun trying out all the shades (and buying a few more of these babies) my next Armani counter trip. These come in over 30 shades! Talk about variety.

Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Gloss is a new generation lipgloss for the brand that has a high reflection finish that catches light and gives the gloss incredible shine and color intensity.

Giorgio Armani Flash Lacquer Crystal Shine Gloss Swatches

Pink, Rouge, Plum

This formula is positively dreamy! It has a highly glossy formula with a perfectly smooth appearance that has a slight shimmer and a beautiful true to tube color. The gloss was created to hold to your lips without migrating around your mouth so it molds to the shape of your lips and stays put. It has a weightless feel which wears comfortably for a good solid four hour without eating or drinking. The formula is thinner so I expected it to wear away might fast. It also lacks a sticky, tacky texture which I commonly associate with longer wear glosses but it seriously needs no aid in this direction as it holds on strong for a long wear that’s very comfortably while maintaining it’s color and glossiness. The longer sponge applicator has a flexible head and saturates well with color so you can build the gloss easily onto lips. They do not have a fragrance or a flavor.

They are absolutely a splurge item but well worth every single penny! The jelly-like formula and texture of the gloss is a joy to apply and wear. The weightless feel and beautifully glossy finish give lips a very beautiful pouty appearance. This is one high end gloss that’s very well worth splurging on!

Love these.

You NEED at least one in your life.

Muse Approved.

Available at Armani counters as well as online at www.giorgioarmanibeauty-usa.com

Love to hear your thoughts if you tried these!

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    I’ve been wanting these for a little while. I was debating which color to get. Does anyone know if 519 is a nice pink?

    Wowza. Usually a gloss is a gloss but these look so super-lovely in your face shots <3

    NNNNNNnnnnnggggg. It took me 5 hours to convince myself yesterday that I didn’t need to get 7 of the la creme lipsticks from Too Faced but now I’m going to the whole day to convince myself that I don’t need another lip gloss.

      • Ashley

        I know! I was looking at your swatches yesterday and wanted them all. My bank account reminded me why I didn’t absolutely need them.

  • AnniLau

    The plum is gorgeous, but I start getting queasy around $20 where lip gloss is concerned.

    • the Muse

      lol agreed…I’m ok with $20-$22 range and I find myself cringing a little !
