Previously,
on several occasions, I've written that I'm a great admirer of lipsticks but,
appart from quality product, I also like the packaging which is singular,
unique and can serve as a kind of fashion accessory or decoration. All that,
and much more, is summed in Guerlain
Rouge G lipstick.
Even
today I remember the moment when I first saw it! I was thrilled with its
elegant yet practical packaging that respires in luxury and can't go unnoticed.
It's a guiding light for Guerlain,
whose expertise in colors elevated lipsticks to the absolute symbol of
effeminacy and seduction. Red or pink, orange or beige, Guerlain lipsticks meet all desires and with their intimate
lavishness magnifies various aspects of femininity: femme fatale, fashionista
or just simple elegance.
Why
is this lipstick so special and different? Because of the packaging! Although
it follows the trends and like other lipstick comes in the „housing“ with
opening mechanism and storage lid, that's about all in regard to similarity
with standard packaging. The coverlid of Guerlain
lipstick includes double mirror that pops out as soon as it is pulled from the
casing. Upper mirror is normal, while the lower one increases reflection and is
perfect for precise fixing.
I must admit that this fact „bought me“, I no longer
have to search for the looking glass in my purse, now I have it in my hand. For
that reason Rouge G is somewhat
bigger and its subjacent part remind me of a hull of the boat immersed in sea.
Interestingly, this lipstick is unable to stand upright, but when it is placed
on the table it looks like a lovely detail.
The
spectacular characteristic of Guerlain is casing permanence: once you purchase
it, it remains, only the lipsticks changes. Selection is truly vast and
everyone can find what suits them best. Genuine The Original casing is silver with a touch of refined elegance, Pure Gold is neatly golden and Romantic Boheme is golden with a pink
luster. It's important to note that lipsticks themselves come in silver
packaging with highlighted letter G, without the possibility of color change,
so if you are not inclined to gold-silver combinations, you may want to avoid
them. For the fans of black and white there are Perfect Black and K-Doll
in offer, for those in doubt or have an affection towards snake tracery the
right choice is Exotic Safari and
adorers of pink will be satisfied with neon luminous Neon-ista, summer Miami Glam
and romantic Gypsy Folk with rose and
small red flowers pattern on white background.
In
the photo, from left to right, you can see some more casings that are not found
on the former picture: French
Mademoiselle resembling the dotted lace, blue Very Batik, nude Preppy Chic,
Minimal Chic and Neo Gothic in imitation of granite and marble. By visiting the
official web site you have the opportunity to put together your own lipstick,
and there I noticed shade which eluded me in the store – Wild Jungle. Most of the casings mentioned above have a silver rim
that, in conjunction with lipstick, appears really beautiful.
I
decided for Miami Glam because I was
browsing for the ideal lipstick and packaging for upcoming summer days, but
which can be used all year round. This edition is limited and if you like it, I
suggest that you look for it before it is withdrawn from sales.
In addition to exclusive packaging Guerlain
produced the same article – Rouge G.
The superb formula of this exceptional lipstick is sealed with intense color
and luscious lip care. Enriched with plant-based polymers and silver
microcrystals with reflecting power, this remarkable formula nicely emphasizes
the lips, cloaking them with strong, glossy and long-lasting color. Jojoba and
mango butter nourish the lips and provide them with instant and durable
comfort, while hyaluronic acid and guggul resin ensures smooth plumpness.
An
incomparable feature of Rouge G is
delectable, enveloping, „floriental“ fragrance of vanilla leaves with sparkling
notes of lemon, orange and bergamot in complete accord. Rose and iris exudes
sweetness, while vanilla and tonka bean in drydown endows the lipstick with all
of its vehemence.
With
a significant number of casings, Guerlain lipsticks come in 30 shades, from
bright red, gentle pink to neutral ones. Since I didn't prefer intensive colors
this summer and wanted to find something lighter, I picked tonal color 77, a
limited edition of a discreet pink glow. At first I was afraid that it would
not cover the natural color of my lips sufficiently, but I was wrong – vigorous
pigmentation triggers the impression „my lips, but better“. Constancy can be measured
in hours, and if you eat or drink in the meantime it needs to be repaired a
bit. The scent is not too invasive and sometimes it can't be felt upon
emergence. Ergonomic, bullet shaped design allows ultra-precise application for
flawless results.
I
was exhilarated by the idea with which Guerlain
created first customized lipstick that is so easy to assemble. The only
necessity is to elect one nifty nuance between many neutral and extraordinary
to fulfill all personal and secret wishes. For a imaginative collection of diverse
styles, whether timeless, trendy or limited, choose a double mirror casing!
Guerlain
lipstick was always associated in my mind with the famous quote by Rachel Zoe: „Style is a
way
to say who you are without having to
speak“
, even though I would replace the word style with Rouge G – by forming your very
own lipstick, choosing shades and casings, you represent yourself without
having to say anything, it's enough to apply it.
How do you like this lipstick? Did you acquire your model and what
combination of nuance and casing would you pick?
All the best till the next post!
Wow! This brand is great! I had a few items from it and all those items were so good!

I completely agree with you, dear Corina.
DeleteThis lipstick is so unique, one of the best in the world and so practical because after you bought one in the future you can only buy new lipstick and use this case.
