We've already had a sneak peek at the Fall 2008 Python Collection from Giorgio Armani Beauty, but get ready for Lip Wax ($26) this September. These six highly pigmented lip colors are intended to be applied with your fingers. They can be worn on your cheeks and lips and have a matte finish. Really, the best way to describe them is as a designer stain.
They come packaged in sleek, black circular compacts with a mirror on the top and the product on the bottom, but the most notable feature is the texture. Wax can be slimy and oily, but this is dry, smooth, and elegant. It feels velvety on your lips and it's virtually weightless. Instead of having the heavy feeling of lipstick, think of it more like a second skin.
Lip Wax can be worn alone if you like the look of a raw, satiny finish, or it can be worn under a gloss if you're looking for more of a sheer and shiny effect. For a description of each of the six Lip Wax shades, which range from nude to deep wine, and to see a couple close-up images, read more.
- N°1 Nude Beige is a touch lighter than your natural lip color.
- N°2 Antique Rose is a blushing pink.
- N°3 Sienna is a burnt, warming lip stain.
- N°4 Raspberry is a deep and serious pinkish-purple.
- N°5 Cardinal Red is a bright and true sheer red shade.
- N°6 Deep Chianti is an extremely rich berry color.

This seems like the perfect solution for a in-between lip gloss and lipstick look. Hopefully there will be a larger color selection at some point. I'm anxious to try these.
1I really love the color in the picture. It's gorgeous. I'm excited for fall and all the darker lip color trends. This sounds pretty interesting. I like the fact that it's a multi tasker.
2I think I'm going to try these! Does anyone know what the colour in the photo is?
3Ooh, I love stains! I'm all over this...I want to try Antique Rose and Deep Chianti.
4SO will this last longer than lipstick??
5Does this have a fragrance? I like the idea but would hate a waxy smell..
6The only stain i've ever tried was Bitten by Revlon and I hated it! All it did was give me deep red lines. It was so gross looking. Did anyone else try this product? Did the same thing happen to you? Anyway, the above stains look really nice, especially the featured color.
7reminds me of solid version of benetint!
8I got the wierdest image upon reading this headline...as in old dudes getting their facial hair ripped off.
9Love the idea. It looks like a balm but with more of a stain-like color but I'm not a fan of pot lipgloss since it doesn't seem the most hygienic.
