All these colors are beautiful. I don't wear lipstick either, but they are all so tempting.
I ordered Rose Encens, Rose Mexique, Rouge Piment, and the lip balm (wanted the orange balm but it was sold out). I got the lip brush as well. Can't wait to try them all out!
Nail polish?!!!Forgot to add the following:
H will release Nail polish too, hopefully this year so I can match my lipsticks
H is currently working on the skincare line in Japan!! I have high expectations abt this since I loooove Japanese skincare. But that may take at least a year from now
I’m doomed! 
Wow! Stunning red on you and so wearable! I didn't think these lipsticks would be so gorgeous and such great matches to the scarves. It seems like a lot of thought went into the color selections.
Thank you kindly maedi. Now I feel I need a red with a slight orange/warmer undertone for some of my other scarves...perhaps rouge casaque will fit the void! Yet another H rabbit hole I'm afraid

Yes, another rabbit hole indeed. I was only able to order Lipstick Rose and it hasn't arrived yet. Am so thankful to the ladies
posting swatches here.
One can't get any better brushes from Chikuhodo or Hakudo... They are the best that I have found
& many of the top make up brushes are done from these companies
Looks beautiful! Kinda wishing I had ordered that color now instead of Rose. So pretty! Thanks for sharing how it looks!
I placed my order for Rose Encens early this morning, and received an email confirmation a few minutes later. But by this afternoon, that color is sold out on the site! Hellllp! Does this mean H won’t be able to fill my order????
Not necessarily. I know their website inventory isn't always up to date, but once you get a shipment confirmation, then you'll know that it went through.
I stopped by my local-ish boutique to try the lipsticks, and swatched a few. The display was in a corner of the fragrance alcove, and could only fit 2 people (SA and customer) in front of it at a time. The SAs were all very patient and helpful, but I didn’t feel like I could ask to test every single color. The SAs were very careful to sanitize the counter and the lipsticks for each customer. One of them said that the line at the Ginza store in Japan was (2 hours? 2 blocks?) long on launch day.
The bullets on the display were plastic, so not totally color accurate. I stuck to the satins— I’m a bit scared of matte. I ended up buying Casaque, Amazone, and Encens. (Zinzolin was sold out.) I didn’t get the special “rouged” paper bag ☹️ and didn’t realize it until I was home. Also got a sample of Beige Tadelakt. I skipped the limited editions— while I’m coveting the cases, I’m not sure any of the colors would work for me.
Today I crossed a lipstick price line I never thought I’d cross! Times three!
