Rosewood Beige (258)

Guerlain Rosewood Beige (258) Rouge G Luxurious velvet lipstick ($ 34.00 for 0.12 oz.) Is a deeper, more muted red coral with warm undertones and a semi-matte finish. The texture was smooth, light, and thin with rather velvety knickers, which made it comfortable to wear but didn’t tend to slide around while wearing. The lipstick had an opaque pigmentation that was well worn for five hours (out of 16 hours marketed!) And felt slightly moisturizing over time.

Formula overview

$ 34.00 / 0.12 oz. – $ 283.33 an ounce

The new finish is described as “velvet matt” with “exceptional softness, depth of color” and is “long-lasting” with “16-hours comfort and wear”. The color coverage should be “highly pigmented” and “slide easily”.

Most of the shades available were highly pigmented as marketed with an even, smooth coverage that didn’t tend to emphasize lip texture, lines, or imperfections. The texture was smooth, moderately dense, but not thick, so it felt light to the touch (but not clingy). Most shades – at the time of review – are more like medium or deep, but the lightest shades I tested tended to stick to my lip lines over time.

The big “downside” is that they don’t wear nearly 16 hours; that would be a big question for any lipstick formula, let alone a traditional spherical formula like this one. They have a longer than average shelf life, with many shades reaching a solid shelf life of six hours with slight stains left behind. The formula was comfortable to wear and slightly moisturizing overall.

They have a floral scent that was noticeable on the lips and I had a slight floral scent while eating / drinking.

Please note that Rouge Gs are now refillable so the price reflects the cost of the lipstick itself, but not the lipstick holder (which is $ 37.50 and comes in a variety of designs). Personally, I keep mine with the refill cap, which is great for home storage but not ideal for someone who carries it in their pocket or who travels frequently.

Milky Beige (360)

Guerlain Milky Beige (360) Rouge G Luxurious velvet lipstick ($ 34.00 for 0.12 oz.) Is a medium, dusty pink with warmer undertones and a semi-matte finish. It had a rich color release in a single pass that stuck evenly to my lips but blended easily into my deeper lip lines.

The weaning was initially imperceptible but became more noticeable after two hours of wear. The texture felt smooth, velvety to the touch instead of traditionally creamy. It lasted a good four and a half hours and was slightly moisturizing to the touch, but it didn’t measure up to the 16-hour apparel on the market.
