This might be the most luxurious and extra lipstick I own. Guerlain sells these in two pieces: the base/refill, which is the lip color you choose and then the cap/case, which comes in a variety of designs and pricepoints. The case is sleek, heavy and beautiful, with a flip-up mirror that is kept shut when the lipstick is connected to the case. The lipstick itself comes in a lovely variety of shades. Due to the expense of having to buy the two pieces separately, this could get quite expensive. I was gifted a beautiful marble-front case to go with the Nude Alchemy shade, which is a fantastic satin nude. It lasts quite a while, is hydrating and fades evenly, which is about all I could ask for in a lipstick.... Show more

I actually have Rouge 555. This is a beautiful, creamy, lightweight matte lipstick. This is a brick red, which I love! It doesn’t sit in the fine lines on my lips and feels quite nice, not drying. I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 because it does have a slight perfume scent. It’s not overwhelming and after awhile, you don’t notice it. Also, these lipsticks are expensive. The actual lipstick, itself, is $34 but the case is $38. You can just order the lipstick by itself and it’ll come with a cheap, throw away plastic cap. Overall, if you’re looking to splurge and love the look of the cases, I definitely recommend trying out these lipsticks. They’re nice!... Show more

The point of the new Rouge G is that you get to choose which shade of lipstick you want out of their 30 shades, then you choose which case you prefer to go with it and viola your very own lipstick that has your decisions in it.As for what this lipstick claims:Enriched with plant-based polymers and silver microcrystals with a reflective power, this exceptional formula beautifully enhances lips, cloaking them in intense and luminous long-lasting colour. Jojoba and mango butter help to nourish lips, offering them instant and lasting comfort. Hyaluronic acid and guggul resin help to smooth and plump up lips.••••••As I’ve mentioned before, Guerlain is well known for its luxurious packaging and honestly I feel like a princess when applying my lipstick.

The cover itself comes with a double mirror so you can apply it on the go. What I love about the packaging is that every single aspect of it is studied.Once you remove the cover of the lipstick, the mirror on its own opens up ready for application/checkup. You may feel like its a bit bulky and heavy though, I didn’t feel like it was a major problem while carrying it but it could be a con for some people.As for the formula, its a creamy lipstick that has a medium sheer coverage. One swipe you get a flush of color, two you get more color, three you get an intense color. So pigmentation depends on number of times you apply this on. I personally love going with once on a daily basis. I do have to mention the formula is very hydrating and I never felt like my lips were dry. I even skip the lip balm step and just go for this. The lipstick never bleeds as well so I never worry if I accidentally touch my lips it’ll get messy.Now as amazing as this all sounds this is 98,000 LL for both the cover and the lipstick. Yes, you buy them separately.I think its crazy that this is such an expensive lipstick and you can’t buy one without the other. The lipstick only comes with a temporary cheap plastic cover till you place the Rouge G.Shade I have is 06... Show more

If you’re new to Guerlain Rouge G Lipsticks you buy the lipstick and the case separately. They have a wide range of beautiful shades in a variety of finishes and the cases are absolutely GORGEOUS!!! I got the limited edition blue butterfly case. Each case also comes with a mirror that slips open. It’s an investment for sure at CAD $80+ for lipstick and case but ABSOLUTELY WORTH IT. Long lasting, comfortable and highly pigmented. One will not be enough….lol.... Show more

Beautiful lippy
I've worn these lipsticks for several years, I usually wear colour numbers 22 (red) & 62 (pink). The quality is great; fabulous creamy texture which moisturises the lips, great colour with lasting power and gives a light shine and is so comfortable to wear. Everything you'd want from a high end brand.... Show more

Colours are Deceptive
Used to buy Guerlain Lipsticks many years ago. I can’t remember the shade, but they seem to have changed them anyway. So I took a punt and ordered one here online. The colour is much lighter than it seemed, but that’s ok as I can use it over darker shades to lighten them. If you have a look at any of the Guerlain websites the lipstick looks completely different from the picture to the colour on the models lips. I suggest unless you are repurchasing a particular shade that you actually go in to a store and try them there.It was no fault of Ascent Luxury Cosmetics, it’s just the way Guerlain is. Ascent Luxury Cosmetics were wonderful and shipped my item extremely quickly.... Show more

Gorgeous soft pink shade lovely embossed blossoms!
I am so happy to have been able to get this beautiful limited edition soft pink “my lips but better” limited edition spring release. It’s just very slightly leans warm rosé but still brightens the complexion. I’m a huge fan of the Velvet formula and shades but heard great things about the satin formula. It’s excellent, feels very creamy and hug’s the lips with very good longevity during the day/evening. The lipstick was sold out when I ordered my limited edition blossom case and didn’t hesitate when it briefly appeared on the Guerlain website. Already sold out again before my order was shipped. It is a treasured set.... Show more

Luxurious Guerlain Electric Number 091 Lipstick
I was looking for this lipstick (Guerlain Electric Number 091) for a while to add with the eyeshadow set that I bought from Guerlain at Xmas in 2018. The quality is excellent and looks and feels luxurious on the lips. It is also long lasting. I was lucky to purchase the Electric Gold lipstick case from another eBay seller and am now searching for the Electric Red lipstick case. Many thanks.... Show more

This shade is so beautiful and something I could never find but always wanted. It looks like something you would find in my mom's lipstick collection which sadly doesn't exist anymore but you know those 90s type of red brown. It looks like that but with a bit of pink. It isn't too red, too brown or too pink. It is perfect. It is also bronzy so it has that shimmery and pearl effect but in a beautiful way without being frosty. I included lip and arm swatches but for some reason the lips turn out a bit more pink than it actually is. You can refer to the arm pics for a more accurate representation. It makes me want to get another one in case Home Essentials Direct stops selling it. Btw, those of you worried that this is a fake, it really isn't. It fit my Guerlain cases ...

It fit my Guerlain cases perfectly and the lipsticks are much cheaper here too. I guess that is because these are discontinued shades. Another shade you can compare it to is probably the YSL Rouge Pur Couture in 1966 but that one is more red. This one is a bit more pink.... Show more

very disappointing
I was shocked at how unhelpful and rude the young untrained shop assistant in DJs Civic Canberra was when I made a special trip into the city. She had limited colours and refused to open the refills for me to match my one original gift. Therefore, I ordered 2 colours online. Imagine my horror that each tiny refill came packed in a separate enormous cardboard box. It's so bad for the environment and such a waste of resources.Initially, I travelled to DJs Woden but they don't qualify to sell this lipstick but have courteous and friendly staff.... Show more
