Armani Eyes To Kill Intense Silk Eyeshadow in Rock Sand

$42, Giorgio Armani

Spend half an hour digging around in your makeup bag, searching for just the right eyeliner to compliment your eyeshadow? Every. Single. Morning? Something has got to give, right? Silky and shimmery, Armani Eyes To Kill Intense Silk Eyeshadow line is your best time-saving solution. Ideal for everyday wear, this splurge-worthy cosmetic comes in eight gorgeous hues (we like Rock Sand), and has an almost wet quality that blends easily and with an iridescent sheen across your eye lids by simply using your fingertips. And while the beauty experts will tell you that a new high resistance bi-polymer enables the formula to provide 24-hour wear without creasing, flaking or sweating off, what we think is cool is the eyeshadow’s squishy, pillow-like texture. It’s not a powder, it’s not cream, but if you add a touch of water to the tip of a thin brush and swirl it across the shadow: it is instant eyeliner. And that makes our morning routine a whole lot faster.
