i'd be doomed because i'd want more and more if i love it. Do you know of another lipstick that geraldine is similar to compare? my favorite pinks are chanel dedicace (don't know number) and Dior 361 rose baiser. oh i should have bought chanel fleurie :( :( :( still regret it. but i like that range of pink. my computer is horrible with color so i have to guess. i think it may be too bright for me. georgia looks more muted. gonna have to go to saks. its just hard to lug 2 kids to swatch lipsticks. they get antsy and i can't blame them.

At first glance, the color reminded me of my Chanel LaDiva, which is like an electric pink. I also have Chanel Le Baiser 54 which is also bright pink but a different
formula. One that I recently ordered, YSL Fuchsia Tourbillon is listed as a dupe for Geraldine by a blogger. I didn't even blink when I read that because at that point both
Geraldine & Geneva had already fallen into my cart.

Chanel Fleurie is pretty. I didn't get it either. No more skippers remorse for me!!!!

Yes Medgal Chanel le Baiser is close in terms of colour, definitely but the texture and finish are different, my swatch is not very good artificial light is well artificial, it's 1 AM here lol !

I don't think Géraldine is that unique but no other lipstick comes to my mind in fact. I don't own Chanel Dédicace but it's a bright and delicate pink if I remember well.


Nars Roman Holiday
Guerlain Géraldine
Chanel Le Baiser ( close to Géraldine but the texture is very different )
Guerlain Rose Grenat

I hope this is helpful :)

​ we always buy the same ones so it's only fair that you get this one too.

Don ´ t worry, you are welcome :) and the fact is that I had no IPhone before ( my Christmas and Birthday gift ) my old Defy ( 2010 if I remember well ) would not post any pictures it was impossible for me to post any swatches but now that I can LOL I often do it ! Back to topic ;) Roman Holiday is pretty but Géraldine is more intense. Le Baiser is very pretty too.

Lol she is very cute ! I am wearing Roman Holiday :) today and honestly Géraldine is much more intense ! It is all the more logical as Nars will launch brand new lippies for Fall. My Roman Holiday was purchased in 2011 so far I remember, and textures have changed à lot since, so I would recommand either Chanel le Baiser ou Géraldine.:)

thank you very much!

yes i liked roman holiday but Geraline is more unique to me so i think i will go with that one. i don't own any NARS lip sticks either. i'll be at saks on friday so i'm going to try and hold off until then. when i find a lipstick formula i like i stick with it so i mostly have tons of dior, some chanel and MAC. in which i'm kinda loosing my love for MAC. i love the colors i just don't grab for them like i do other brands. my favorite is their lustres but they don't stay on long so that's probably why. i do really like these new patent polishes though.
i swatched a few tom ford at the CCO and they were ok. nothing that wowed me even to justify the cost so i'm excited to finally try guerlain. i don't need both georgia and geraldine so i think once i swatch them i will hopefully only want one. (hopefully) geraldine looks prettier and prettier each time i look at your swatches. thank you again.

Hello! This is my first time posting but all you ladies are so sweet and lovely! You all seem to be the experts to go to regarding the Guerlain pressed meteorites and I'm currently interested in purchasing my first one! I'm debating about going with the Wulong on ebay or finding a vintage gold with tortoise shell compact and filling it with Mythic. Could I ask you all a few questions? Which has more heft: the black and Pearl compact or the Gold and Tortoise shell compact? Do they both feel equally high-quality? I know I shouldn't base my decision on the compact, but they are just so beautiful and I'm having trouble deciding between the two. I've heard that the difference between the Mythic and the Wulong meteorites are negligible, so I figured I could go with either. I'm an NC30 with strong golden undertones...do you think both would work on me? Thank you guys for any help and guidance!!
