Armour Beauty: High-end fashion meets Rock n' Roll

June 12, 3:54 PM
by Carla Thomas, Flygirl Examiner
 
 

  Rock and roll, man, roll and rock! Armour Beauty beautifully blends Rock n’ Roll and high-end fashion. If you ever wanted to channel your inner rock star but never had the guts to get on a stage, you can now rock a fierce red (Barracuda), a totally wearable black (Femme Fatale) or a vampy purple with a touch of shimmer (After Hours).

Rocker chick, model and former Lunachick frontwoman, Theo Kogan and her friend, makeup artist and purse designer, Allison Burns were tired of wearing lip-glosses that were made with all-natural products but lacked color. With Armour Beauty, these ladies are reinventing lip-glosses by creating a line that’s filled with color, made with all natural ingredients (avocado butter, mango seed butter, olive butter, avocado oil, grape seed oil, shea butter and vitamin E), long lasting and eco-friendly. Say roll out, to those boring bare shades.

 Armour Beauty has two different collections, the shimmer collection and the opaque collection. In this 14-shade collection each gloss is named after Theo and Allison’s inspirations in music and classic pop culture. There’s a beige named after Andy Warhol’s girl, Edie Sedgwick, a mauve rose named after the late Princess Diana and light pink named Kashmir that pays homage to Led Zepplin.  

 With shades that can work for the day or night there is finally a lip-gloss line that provides style and substance with a touch of Rock n’ Roll.  Your inner rock star will thank you as well as your lips! Get kissed here: www.armourbeauty.com.

Tell them Fly Girl sent you!

 

 

PS. My favorite shade is After Hours, it’s a deep purple shade that sparkles. You can wear it during the hot summer day or for a rockin’ summer night. It’s a thicker gloss than others but it long-lasting. Plus it smells great!
