When I bought the Noir Terriblement palette I couldn't resist this lipstick too. I bought both online but it was the in store swatching that made me do it! I fell for about four of the Golden Lustre versions of the Rouge Pur Couture lipsticks but I bought 108 (Ocre Rose) which is possibly the safest choice for a beginner.
The packaging is to die for BUT I do spend far too much time trying to wipe off finger prints...
In the tube it looks pretty boring I suppose and truly, it's not the world's most stunning lipstick but regardless I absolutely love it. The "golden lustre" is incredibly subtle, you won't be seeing glitter in this lipstick, just more of an extra dimension I suppose, a hint of shimmer without frost. It's very pretty.
The formula is also amazing. It's moisturising but not greasy (which I really don't like in the Rouge Volupte formula), and it lasts surprisingly well on my lips. I was surprised to see my lipstick still in place after lunch the other day, this rarely happens to me, and is especially good in a lipstick that doesn't promise any long wear.
A gorgeous lipstick and I will definitely be going back for more, and perhaps trying out some of them without the Golden Lustre.
And a stupid face to show the colour in the context of the colour against the full glory of my skin colouring
I don't know what I'm doing either. idiot.
Anyway, gorgeous lipstick, I really love it and am pleased with my investment. It cost me £22.50 by the way and although it is a stupid price for a lipstick really, I'm happy.
It may be a stupid price but that colour is very wearable so would be a good buy! Very nice :-)
