Taking a note from @momasaurus's post... Can anyone compare the color of Rose Velours and Rose Zinzolin? I know they're different because of matte/satin, just trying to figure out if I could rock either shade :smile: FWIW I'm olive skinned and Rouge H is a great fit for me (well aside from the weird sandy issue I posted about the other day!)

And here’s my messy swatch to compare these two for you! RV is indeed darker but I did swipe multiple times over for both swatches. HTH!

I should mention now that I have the “piano set” of all colors and have been collecting all LEs. In other words I have everything released so far, I know I know...I definitely have a lipsticks problem (not just limited to H). However this does mean that I will be able to help out any specific comparison requests...so feel free to tag me. Will try my best.

Awesome! I love Rose Velours. But it boggles my mind how it is not nearly that dark on me.

I have another request please since you kindly offered. Rouge Piment vs Rouge Casaque? Thank you!! :girlsigh:
 
@momoc Could you please share comparison swatches of BeigeÉbloui, Rose Nuit,Rose Épicé? I am trying to figure out which would be the deepest nude. Thanks!

Left to right = top to bottom swatch. Since these have different cases I was lazy and didn’t label them.

Did both Satin and Matte RC for you! Lighting is not great right now, Rouge Piment definitely reads more blue; not showing up as much in the photo. The official H description for RP is a bluish red and that’s definitely accurate. Also, while the matte swatch doesn’t appear that matte, when it goes on your lips you can definitely feel a difference.

Well. You know how these things go. It’s nowhere near that dark on me. But almost every lippie isn’t. My natural lips are pretty pigmented. Let me find a pic....

That’s naked lips. I don’t know if that’s the reason but lipsticks on me are never as dark as they appear online, and that includes Rose Velours. The pics in my last post are very true to real life on me.

@momoc you are so flippin' great, thank you!

@momoc @Pirula I'm trying both... will let you know what I think when I get them. I'll be interested to see how dark Rose Velours is on me (and frankly hoping both skew less pink on my skin!)

@momoc did you literally buy the piano set i.e. this (https://www.selfridges.com/US/en/ca...dition-24-colour-lipstick-piano-set_R03677497) or did you buy them all individually?

@momoc one more question, since you obviously have everything, do you find the satins stay on well enough (can you have a sip of water or lick your lips?) or do you do anything special to get them to last?

I don’t do anything special and I feel like they last well enough! I do generally reapply my lipstick after a meal etc. Also I’m personally more of a matte lipstick person in general, so I’ve definitely used the matte shades more / have less experience with the satin ones...so those who favor their satin shades please feel free to offer more insights! But yeah definitely don’t remember thinking that they immediately disappeared when I used them - I thought they were great!
