Hermes Skincare & Makeup

[Bova123]

Another wonderful choice, Bova! I had this one on my list as well. I had hoped for more purple for me though. It is a very nice color and I like that it is such a pretty color without being too bright.

Thank you luvbolide...it is a very nice, soft, yet deep, pink, with a very, slight purple undertone on me. Definitely my favorite of the ones I purchased!

My Hermes delivery arrived.
Rose inoui is definitely not for me. I’ll have to see if I can mix it with other colours.
My husband said I looked like this:

Oh my, I really did laugh out loud at this!!

I love them both. They are VERY similar. The only significant difference (on me anyway) is matte vs. satin.

I chose the boisé after expecting to prefer encens. The encens read a bit too orange on me but the boisé is a lovely rose-y, cool(er) neutral.

As promised - my brights. Rouge H matte and Violet Insensé satin. Two more hits! Very pleased with my H lippies!

Wow, twins again on the Rouge H matte; maybe I better head back to the boutique and try that Violet, it’s really great on you!

Beige Kalahari in different lighting on my paler Asian cool toned skin. It's definitely more pink than beige to my eyes. A great neutral!

Very nice! I would love to find a nice neutral color, so I will give this one a look, too.

Random question but how do you mix a lipstick with another colour? Do you apply the second layer directly from the lipstick to your lips? In which case will the second lipstick be stained by the first layer on your lip?

I use to watch my mom mix her lipsticks, and she would put one color in the middle and then another color on the outer part of the lip like a liner and then press her lips together. It worked for my mom, who was much more glamorous than I.

I think all of yours look great on you. I hope that I will find ones that work as well for me!

Where do you see that on the website? My receipt says nothing like that and I also don’t see anything on the website.
Thanks for your help!

you can return if unopened. It is found under the description of the product.

Here is another youtube video to look at.

This is quite pretty on you Maedi. I hope you grow to like it!

Thank you, dear Bova. I am sheering it out a bit and excited to be your twin. Somehow, my Beige Kalahari is not happening - once order cancelled, then backordered until the end of April which made me cancel. This is with different retailers, too. Now, I am thinking about your red.

 

[Maedi]

This is the color I ordered. I am afraid of it being too bright. But I think it looks lovely on you!

Thank you. Today, I used it with a lighter hand and in that respect the Hermès lipsticks are really different and somewhat magical. The texture is so unique. It is growing on me and I hope you will like it.

I also have a strong sense of smell and am sensitive to many, many scents that don't bother others. Over the years, I have had to forgo many scented products.

Most lipsticks do not bother me, but the scent of these Hermes lipsticks absolutely does. I love everything else about the lipsticks but not sure I can get over the scent. It really does bother me.

I find the scent odd and unpleasant as well but it won't be a deal breaker for me.

Here is my first pop of colour, Rose Dakar. I’m just about to go whippet walking so I’ll post Rouge H mat tomorrow. It as as usual a dark grey day in the UK. I’m loving this pop of colour, I think it is going to look wonderful in sunshine. I can’t wear nudes, I look as though I’m death warmed up ready for the morgue in a pale nude. I need to choose a red next. Please excuse my old lips and skin, I’m becoming an old bird, such is life. Enjoy. View attachment 4687756

This is gorgeous on you. Please don't apologize for anything. You look full of life and joy and have porcelain skin.

I’m kind of surprised Hermes decided to include scent in the lipstick. Perfume sensitivity is a problem for a lot of people.
