Does anyone here have the Beige Mousseline le rouge lipstick? I haven't seen many WOC swatches. I had it in my cart but couldn't commit ;-)

I couldn't decide on Beige Mousseline so I got Brun Cachemire. I wished it was a bit darker but it's ok.

I passed my finger along the swatch and the texture was different to my other lipsticks. On the lips as well.

Hi I deliberated for months lol Do you have any of them? I haven't worn it all day yet to see how it lasts.
Yes, I have 7! Me and my roommate are obsessed. My roommate is really picky about lipsticks and only likes these because they stay in place and feel good on the lips.

I have two Givenchy lipsticks, Beige Plume and Rose Dressing. I can't wear either because they cause my lips to turn into giant cornflakes. :( It's a shame because I really love a lot of the range, plus I fell head over heels for the new releases they put out in June. Alas!

That's great! Which shades do you have and what's your fave?
I've got Magnolia Organza Croisiere Coral (LE) Mandarin Bolero Rose Dressing Rouge D'Exception (LE) Rose Plumetis (LE) Nude Guipere My fav would probably be Rose Plumetis, it's from the fall collection and still available online :) it's like a mauvey shade, a lot like Anna from the Nars Audacious lippies but I think a bit darker. It's beautiful! Also in burgundy leather packaging too ;) Fav permanent one would have to be Mandarin Bolero! (gorgeous orange red that isn't too loud)

Oh, no! Do you think a balm would help?

Nice list! I like the swatches I've seen of MB and MO. (Carmin Escarpin, too). I have seen so many swatches lol

Tried three balms and an organic moisturizer that's safe for lips. It helps extend wear to about 2-3 hours before my lips start to crack. The first time I wore my Beige Plume out, I thought it was an anomaly, so six hours and a reapplication later, my lips began to bleed. :( Then I thought that maybe it was like other brands where some colors are finicky, and I picked up Rose Dressing. My lips flaked but not so badly that they bled with that one, so I gave up on the brand.

I'm a member of an extreme minority, though, and I'm not sure what ingredient it is I'm reacting to. :( Makes me sad because SO many people love them! I just look for dupes now in my extremely short list of brands that I trust not to turn my lips into cereal.

Oh, that's awful! I wore mine all day for the first time yesterday and my lips did feel a little bit dry at the end but it might have been other circumstances so I'll be sure to monitor it. I do remember seeing someone review BP and it looked quite drying on the lips but I didn't read the review because the shade is too light for me. I must take a look at the ingredients list. I hope you find more brands to add to your list!

I tried the le rouge over a balm today and had no dryness. Will try it another time without one, but it's good to know I should be able wear it with no problems. It has quite a satin-y finish. Wish the leather around the case wasn't so soft/thin but the studs and overall look is cool :)
