Giorgio Armani Eye Tint Eyeshadow: Reviewed by an Editor

Some beauty products ask for my attention; others demand it. That’s the case with Giorgio Armani’s Eye Tints, which have received all three major hallmarks for hype: 1) word-of-mouth recommendations from friends and fellow editors (I’ve heard “You have to try these!” for months), 2) social media virality (they’re plastered all over my FYP), and 3) celebrity approval via Sabrina Carpenter and Addison Rae (among others). Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I’m prone to beauty-product FOMO, so I couldn’t let another minute pass without getting hold of one of these cream eye shadows.

Luckily, I didn’t just get my hands on one, but seven, in varying shades and finishes. Then, I put them to the test over the course of a week, wearing a different shade/finish every day until I worked my way through all of them. Ahead, read my full review. (Although, spoiler alert: They’re just as good as everyone says they are.)

My Review

Kaitlyn McLintock

Here, I’m wearing a combination of shades Shell and Blush.

I’ll cut to the chase and say I understand the hype. These cream eye shadows are incredible for four reasons: 1) the texture, 2) the blendability, 3) the long-wearing formula, and 4) the shade range. Let me explain.
