I know a couple of people in the Guerlain thread were asking about how Rose Grénat compared to a couple of other limited edition Rouge G shades:

Madame Batifole (applied on very chapped, dry lips)




Provocative




Rose Grénat

Gorgeous ! Those lipsticks are made for you !

I did a quick mu this am, and I used the SS from MAC's new AA collex.. here is the pic. Again my lips are a pinky mauve and since this is a lustre it really gets skewed by my own lip pigmentation.

Skin: NC15-20 for reference. Lined with What comes naturally.. (lol it's not even visible on me) I stand by my original thoughts I prefer to stay away from lustres.. lol




Rose Dressing: Givenchy..I put this right over the SS since I was told I forgot to put on lipstick.. lol .. more my kinda colour!





and finally, Christian Dior 999..holds my most favoured lippie status

Riri Woo ( sorry for the lighting but it's a bit stormy here or better say it looks like storm ). It is so dry, more than matte !

Yea Riri woo has a bit of tug but that's what retro mattes do.
It looks beautiful, way deeper than Ruby woo.
Do you notice that too?

Riri Woo is very deep indeed ( much more than on that picture ), yes the retro matte texture is so difficult to apply and play with - but so is Ruby Woo -
Here are Ruby Woo and Riri Woo on my hand, Riri Woo has more subtle pink undertones IMO.

They look so similar on the hand, but on the lips very different!
Perhaps you are right about Riri Woo having subtle pink undertones,
I am always trying to describe it compared to ruby woo and can only think of deeper lol.
But thank you for the swatches.

Me too lol, I was told both were similar but it's not true at all, I will swatch them on my lips ( when my lips are not so dry ), clearly they are different, that's why I needed so much Riri Woo lipstick.

I have two Riri Woo's and I love them! My favorites by far!
I had ruby Woo and gave it away lol didn't like it much!
Thanks for posting the link by the way !

I wish I had known it was that much different. All I kept hearing was how similar they are, and they do look pretty much identical on a hand swatch, but obviously not on the lips.

I had my lunch and then took a meeting, and used a fave colour of mine after lunch. This one is Opera Rose #29 YSL. It is just luscious going on, very velvety and gives a smooth but not shiny finish. No liner on mauvey pink lips. Nc 15-20 skin.




and as promised to sirfryedshana.. this is Rose Asarine YSL .. it's newer in the lineup but just as lovely .. at least I love it. lol. No liner. Pink mauve pigmentation on lips, NC15-20 skin colour. This one has good lasting power and leaves the SAME colour as a lip stain on lips which is wonderful for me as I eat and talk them all into nothingness.
