This is the BEST red lipstick ever! THE BEST INDEED! A classic true red with blue undertones which instantly brightens the face of any skin complexion whilst making the teeth look whiter when one smiles! The most beautiful lipstick that I have ever held on to! ABOUT THE PRODUCT: Inspiration: Velvet Matte Lip Colour, an opulent colour and soft touch feel, with non-drying comfort. For Christian Louboutin, a designer and creator of rare objects, lipstick is a woman’s magic wand. No longer tucked away between the key ring and the nail file, the Louboutin Lip colour transforms a forgotten object into a treasured jewel. Inspired by Middle Eastern antiquities and the Art Deco movement, the solid metal body is reminiscent of a precious vial. The turret-like crown cap is topped with a small ring threaded with a silk ribbon, turning the lip colour into a necklace. Product Description:
TEXTURE: The finish is velvet matte but the formula is very moisturizing on my lips, not drying at all unlike some matte lipsticks that I have tried. It doesn't tug on the lips during application and it easily glides on smoothly like a dream! COVERAGE: It is also very opaque, one swipe gives a full coverage already. It has a velvet powdery smell and feels luxurious when applying it! ROAD TEST!!! To everyone who is curious about its overall look on my face and how long-wearing it is, read on! This was how the CL lipstick looked on me last night after having dinner. No retouching after the initial touch up. Just a tiny little bit of fading on the middle. Totally not bad at all! LONGEVITY: Oh, it also stayed on my lips from 6pm until 2am which by that time, it was still as opaque same as here in the picture, but I decided that I just wanted to take it off and wash my whole face because I was about to sleep. Winner in the longevity department indeed! Love it! Retouching can be done after 5 hours if you want but for me, I don't find the necessity to do so. You can live the whole morning or whole afternoon or whole night without reapplication! Totally worth the hype and the price indeed! PRICE: US $90 (plus shipping tax)
The price is very expensive for a lipstick tube. So if someone is gonna get one, I recommend getting the color that you actually love and will totally wear! PROS: Ladies, I am telling you: this is totally worth splurging for! You definitely get what you pay for! Longevity, product quality, packaging, and formulation: SUPERB! CONS: The steep price (US $90) plus the downside is, living outside US, it is more expensive when bought from Filipino legit authentic sellers due to custom tax plus shipping costs. I got mine from an Instagram seller with the username @bag_haven she sold it for Php4,950 including the shipping fee BUT I am not sure if they will be retaining the price or increase it. REMEMBER: Just to know if you are getting the REAL DEAL (and not the replicas or fakes, please!), familiarize yourself with its packaging.
