Red Carpet Glam: Tim Quinn, Makeup Artist for Armani Beauty, Gives You the Inside Scoop! |
|
It’s Oscar time and I love it because I can touch base with my favorite fashion and beauty people— like the ever-popular, very much in demand, Tim Quinn, Head Makeup Artist for Armani Beauty. Thankfully, he was able to make time to see me and we squeezed in a couple of videos. Here are the key products he’s talking about in the video:
The new Onde fragrance collection is Inspired by the exotic journeys to the East. The three perfumes (Vertige, Mystere, and Extase) are encased in beautiful vintage-inspired ribbed bottles with colored silk tassels.
Vertige has a very floral presentation of lush frangipani flower, splashes of jasmine Black liquorice and patchouli help round it out, sending us on a whirlwind tour of the Kama Sutra. The bottle is designed after the temples of India. Representing Japan, Extase is all about the powdery mimosa, Egyptian jasmine, and narcissus. It’s the sweetest of the trio. I like the vanilla/caramel laid down against the bergamot, pepper and cedar to create depth. It’s not for everyone but works well layered with the other scents and can be worn playfully on its own. Mystere opens up spicy and bold yet the the incense and amber go surprisingly soft. The Moroccan Rose and vanilla take the edge off this thick, rich scent. Almost the best for last: the Armani Beauty Spring 2009 Collection.
