+1 not impressed at all with the lip enhancers. They are way, way too sheer, like if I put them on my arm, I need to go over so hard / so many times for the colors to show it almost makes my arm hurt. Also I don't find them moisturizing at all. If you want to use them as lip balm, I say just get the lip balm...that one feels much better than this. If you MUST buy one, go for Rose Tan given it's the deepest. Or if you are like me and just need to collect all the cases...lol.

Arm swatches - going over like 5 swipes on each of them...

Thank you. Very helpful. I’m going to try the satin formula instead. Was hoping to go to the boutique to try them on in person but then we have a lock down before I could make it downtown.

Thank you, momoc. This is so very helpful. So sad, as I thought the idea of a sheer formula for summer sounded great. But I‘m not one for any too sheer formula. I have yet to try my Rose Tan. It‘s sitting on my vanity waiting until everything I ordered will have arrived

As someone who doesn’t love wearing lipstick, I looooovee these new “lip enhancers” for a smooth touch of color without the thick layer that classical lipstick typically brings. These won’t smudge and don’t need much precision in application which is perfect for grab and go. Highly recommend these and wish they came out with (or before) the lipsticks as I probably would have stuck with just these instead.

Couldn’t agree more! :ghi5:
I have the Rose Tan, but definitely want to try the other ones too. Love it. Very nice texture and feel, precisely the minimal sheer tint I was looking for. Will definitely use it lots and get refills. And it lasts! Put it on before a quick grocery run several hours ago and a sandwich and multiple cups of tea later I can still feel it on my lips.
They are how they are described, and named; lip enhancers. Per H aimed at revealing the lips’ natural beauty. If you think you’re going to buy a lipstick with a very visible color, this is definitely not for you. With all things, it’s highly personal. If you think this will appeal to you, give it a try.

Did you purchase multiple colours? My SA has one colour for me at the moment, but it seems that it would be worth picking up a few.
 
So all of my items I ordered from this collection are finally here. All looks nice. Luckily the plume blush coordinates nicely with the Rose Tan lip enhancer . The synthetic travel blush is very soft but ticks so very tiny. When I unwrapped it, it was more silk paper than brush in the box ;) and it has no wrapper, pouch or cover. Makes me rethink the travel brush moniker.3D45A433-BBA8-4E77-98A6-4776B6DC1F6F.jpegF07E93B1-7D48-408F-96D0-07E144C5B140.jpeg7239D706-BA21-4111-81B9-3F4FBE509FB3.jpeg

@acrowcounted & @getbetterwithH, how do your find the brushes? Are they soft/dense? How do they perform in terms of picking up pigment and blend-ability? I’m especially interested in the short one but also love the handle on the blusher one as well (would make me feel happy whenever I use it).

the Travel blush is both softer and denser. I own quite a few luxury face brushes, and am sad to admit that the H full size brush, albeit really beautiful and also well made, Is the the most scratchy. That aside, they are good brushes. The Travel one might be more versatile because it‘s denser, at least for me.
However, to put it bluntly, the next blush brush I‘m again spending $100 on, will be another Suqqu Cheek. As Lisa Eldridge keeps saying, „soft as a kitten paw“ and a joy to sweep over your skin.

Thanks for letting me know! I got myself a Chikuhodo powder brush last year. It’s super soft (probably like a kitten paw?) but I found it too soft. The handle was so pretty thought a limited edition art from a famous artisan. I’m trying to narrow down the H blush colour and the numerous ‘red’ lipstick shades. Your collection looks very pretty and spring like.
 
Silly question, for anyone who ordered the lip enhancer online, were you able to order a quantity of one? It doesn’t matter which color I put in my cart it gets changed to a quantity of 3 and I’m unable to edit down to 1 unit. Thanks in advance for any assistance or if I’m missing something

Yes, I ordered one. Must be a glitch right now.
