An Armani lip-color number is most useful when it stays attached to the product-line name. If you remember 501 or 601 but not the rest of the label, pause before choosing a replacement. Lip Maestro Intense Velvet Color and Ecstasy Lacquer Excess Lipcolor Shine appear as separate lines in the Shine Beauty Shop selection, with different stated amounts in the examples below.
This guide is a five-listing reference for shoppers looking for a familiar Armani product. It keeps the verified numbers intact rather than assigning color names that the individual listings do not supply.
Three Lip Maestro references at 6.5 mL
- Lip Maestro Intense Velvet Color 205: 6.5 mL / 0.22 fl oz.
- Lip Maestro Intense Velvet Color 501: 6.5 mL / 0.22 fl oz.
- Lip Maestro Intense Velvet Color 503: 6.5 mL / 0.22 fl oz.
All three share the Lip Maestro Intense Velvet Color wording and the same listed amount. Keep 501 and 503 distinct even though the numbers sit close together. Numerical proximity is not a reliable guide to how similar two shades will look.
Two Ecstasy Lacquer references at 6 mL
- Ecstasy Lacquer Excess Lipcolor Shine 506: 6 mL / 0.20 fl oz.
- Ecstasy Lacquer Excess Lipcolor Shine 601 Plum Vinyl: 6 mL.
The 601 listing supplies the name Plum Vinyl as well as its number. The 506 listing identifies its shade by number. Retain that difference in your notes instead of borrowing a shade name from another Armani line or an unrelated search result.
What the line names help you investigate
Armani's Lip Maestro page describes a matte liquid-lipstick family. The Ecstasy Lacquer store entries use the separate wording “Excess Lipcolor Shine.” Those names provide a starting point for researching the finish you remember, but this guide does not treat the two products as substitutes or promise identical wear.
If you have an old bottle, copy its line name first and its number second. Then compare the net amount. For example, a note reading “Lip Maestro 501, 6.5 mL” is much more specific than “Armani 501.” Preserve any additional wording from the label when researching an older favorite.
Compare quantities without losing the product identity
The selected Lip Maestro listings state 0.5 mL more than the selected Ecstasy Lacquer listings. That is a comparison of the listed volumes, not a reason to choose one formula over the other. When shopping for a replacement, the right product line and shade usually matter before a small difference in amount.
If you are comparing value, use current prices and the stated milliliter amounts from the product pages. Avoid comparing ounce abbreviations alone, and check whether the offer contains one item or a set. The five links here each describe an individual lip-color product.
A final cart check
Read the complete selected title, confirm the three-digit shade number and check the size. Review the packaging details and photographs on that exact page. If you are researching a new shade rather than replacing an old one, our Lipstick Finishes Explained: Matte, Satin, and Shine guide can help you separate the finish choice from the color choice.
