Guerlain Rouge G L'Extrait in Luxure and Avarice


Today I would like to share with you my favorite lipsticks. The Rouge G L'Extrait comes in seven different colors from deep red to plum. They retail for 45 Euros each.


They are package is very nice, It come in some kind of metal packaging. The packaging is really well thought through as it also contains a nice mirror.




The application is done exactly like a lip-gloss. The texture is smooth and it is easy to apply without messing around. I still recommend using them with a lip-liner as I believe it makes lipstick application more precise.



The finish is satin as it is not fully matte nor glossy. Avarice is a nice beige rose. It looks very natural. It is nice as daytime makeup as it does not draw too much attention to the lips. I love to use this color for work as it is never too much but exactly right.
Luxure is a lovely red. It is perfectly red not pinkish or plumy. It is bright but wearable for daytime or evening occasions. I love both colors and use them regularly depending on my mood.

Once the lipstick is applied and dried down (yes it actually kind of sets down) it stays put for around 4 hours. I believe it would stay even longer if you do not eat or drink anything. For me that means that I reapply the color after lunch and I am all good again till I am going back home.

Here is how it looks applied:



Summing up:

Pros:

·                     Long-lasting
·                     Easy application

Cons:

·                     Pricey
