Guerlain New Rouge G Le Brilliant & Kiss Kiss Strass

January brings us new Guerlain lipsticks . In my world, thats cause for major excitement.

First up we have an addition to the Rouge G line called Le Brilliant. They have taken those luxe lippies and made them one better, with the additon of shimmer. I am liking the Le Brilliant even better than the original. That bit of shimmer seems to make them last longer, be more creamy and well, lets face it, I just like shimmer.

Shown are the shades Beatrix and Barbara. Beatrix is almost a lip tone, a pink lip tone, but light and just a swipe of tint and shimmer for your lips. Barbara was hard to get a good shot of. It's not as dark on as it appears in the photo. It's a medium , brown with a dash of plum.

Next up are Kiss Kiss Strass. The rest of the official description is " Crystal Shine , Shimmering Colors." That covers it well. These have loads of sparkle , are highly moisturizing and creamy. The pigment here is good, medium I would say. The lipsticks have 3 different kinds of Mother of Pearl for maximum shimmer .

Shown below are Rouge Broderie ( the pink one) and Brun Satin.


The Kiss Kiss Strass ($ 31.00)and Rouge G Le Brilliant ($ 46.00) have 10 new shades each.

Available now at Nordstrom, Saks, and more.
