LIP MAESTRO SATIN

the new skin-on-skin, hydrating, vibrant lip colour 

 

Giorgio Armani introduces LIP MAESTRO SATIN, its new liquid lip color that combines maximum care, wear and color in one.  While existing formulations can deliver either color or care benefits, but not both, LIP MAESTRO SATIN meets every expectation of vibrant shades, lip care benefits, and low transfer.   

LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s innovative double-gel thin film technology is derived from skincare formulation, composed of two powerful and ultraconcentrated gels. Having both these gels in the formula allows to get the better of both worlds: the sensory and lightweight feel of an aqueous formula with long lastingness and color impact of an anhydrous formula.  

Via its innovative, double-gel technology, LIP MAESTRO SATIN creates a new intensity of shades offering new vibrant colors within the Lip Maestro collection.  

The most hydrating of all Giorgio Armani’s lipstick formulas, LIP MAESTRO SATIN offers never-before achieved levels of care for a lipstick. 

LIP MAESTRO SATIN offers a color finish for lips that appears line-free, lower transfer, without any stickiness, for a skin-on-skin feel with a 12-hour wear. 

LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s sleek case puts a twist on the iconic LIP MAESTRO design. The lip color’s bottle is shaped to evoke a bullet lipstick shape in a liquid lipstick case, and is topped with a striking, slanted red cap in the brand’s signature red. With the high comfort, mistake proof yet precise tip in a diamond-shape, the wearer can embrace that ‘one stroke’ application.  

LIP MAESTRO SATIN, as part of the LIP MAESTRO collection, is an encapsulation of Giorgio Armani’s mastery of texture and shade. In up to 13 luminous shades, LIP MAESTRO SATIN is so thin and fresh it gives a weightless feel, so luminous and lasting that the skin tone is enhanced all day.

A FUSION OF COLOR, CARE, AND WEAR,  

WOVEN TOGETHER IN A DOUBLE-GEL FORMULA 

 

the double-gel thin film technology 

Derived from skincare, the LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s breakthrough double-gel thin film technology combines the strength of liquid lipsticks – such as lightness, moisturizing action, strong color intensity – with that of stick lipsticks – comfort and ease of application. 

Exclusive to Giorgio Armani and patented in eight countries1, LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s formula is unique and deconstructs traditional lipstick technology.  

Instead of the tradition single gel formulation, LIP MAESTRO SATIN boasts a double-gel formula composed by a 70% watery gel and a 30% oily gel, which are highly concentrated with skincare actives. This combination allows for the formulation’s seamless dispersion of its pigments and dyes, as the gels unite to fuse an ultra-staying power with a long-lasting hydration.  

care: a high hydration potential 

The skin on the lips is thinner than that of the face, with no sebaceous glands, so lips require more intense moisture. They are also constantly exposed to external aggressors, and undergo stress from eating, drinking, and speaking.  

LIP MAESTRO SATIN sets new standards in lip color with its unprecedented levels of care.  

The aqueous, watery gel creates LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s initial ultra-light sensation, resulting in a satin-finished, caring balm effect on application. This gel contains 15% plant-based glycerin, combined with hydro soluble dyes. The watery gel brings care with highest level of glycerin ever seen in Giorgio Armani’s lipsticks. This allows LIP MAESTRO SATIN to both hydrate lips immediately and to care for lips with continued use.

wear: lasting, deep, vibrant tones 

Within the oily gel, resins and immiscible oils, silicones, are the engine of performance for wear.  

The formula’s resin polymer allows LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s colors to deliver more staying power than a lip care product, as the resins enwrap pigments to create a film of color. The immiscible oils within the formula act like a shield to preserve the color on the lips. Moreover, silicones help to block the evaporative loss of water from the lips surface, forming an occlusive deposit. The purity of color in LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s shades instantly revives the complexion of those who wear them.  

When the gel’s water content evaporates, a fine color film, captured in wear boosters, remains on the lips. Lips are left with a light, comfortable, skin-on-skin jelly sensation for 12 hours. LIP MAESTRO SATIN offers a color finish for lips that appears line-free, lower transfer, without any stickiness.

color: captivating, vivid shades for maximum impact 

 

 

Both watery and oily gels work in synergy regarding the color expression. 

In the watery gel, dyes can be solubilized. The watery gel contains dyes that would not readily blend in a single, oily gel formula, characteristic of most traditional lipsticks. Via this innovative, double-gel technology, LIP MAESTRO SATIN creates a new intensity of shades offering a vivid facet of lip color within the Lip Maestro collection.  

The organic and mineral pigments are dispersed in the oily gel, for maximum color payoff.  

The vibrant shades were created by Giorgio Armani International Make-Up Artist Linda Cantello in collaboration with Armani beauty laboratories. In up to 13 evocative shades, LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s nuanced palette represents a fusion of Linda Cantello’s expertise, the innovation of Armani beauty laboratories, and Giorgio Armani’s own mastery of texture and shade.

A POTENT FORMULA MEETS A GRACEFUL DESIGN 

 

when precise application meets sleek design 

LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s new levels of color, care, and wear are captured in its elegant case. Inspired by LIP MAESTRO’s iconic design, LIP MAESTRO SATIN puts a contemporary twist on LIP MAESTRO’s classic shape.  

LIP MAESTRO SATIN’s sleek, frosted liquid lipstick bottle is crafted with a bullet-like lipstick shape. The bottle is topped with the iconic Giorgio Armani red cap, now with a unique slanted top, for a disruptive new take on this signature design.  

LIP MAESTRO SATIN is created with a new, diamond-shaped applicator. The applicator delivers just the right amount of formula to apply a fine layer of color on the lip. In only one stroke, the new applicator shape also ensures a mistake-proof finish, as its diamond form is crafted with a finer side, that allows a more precise application to define the lips’ contours.   

Once applied, in one gesture, LIP MAESTRO SATIN creates a weightless, jelly-like, and minimal feel on the lips, paired with vibrant color.
