Hermes Skincare & Makeup

[AnnaE]

I bought a Rouge Orange lipstick on the last day H.com was shipping. The SA said it was supposed to be Capucine; it's similar, but not identical. No complaints from me. It's supposed to be matte, but it is not drying and it is not matte in the same way some recent trends have been. Pretty similar to my Tom Fords I would say. I will definitely look to get more once things are back to normal.

You are welcome.
I had the opportunity to meet one of the beauty specialists from H so we gladly exchanged some lip tips
I did purchase the H Universal Lip Pencil which I am not loving & decided to purchase Tom Ford
Lipliner Sculptor in Lick which does what I thought H lip pencil would do.. but both will be serviceable

May I ask what you don't care for with the H Lip Pencil and why you prefer the Tom Ford? How did you anticipate using the H Lip Pencil and where did it fall short? I usually don't use a lip pencil but ordered one up to give it a try (it's still in it's box at the moment!)

I found the Hermes Lip Pencil waxy on my lips. I also felt it didn't define my lips either as a universal lip pencil
should. I also thought it would help with feathering when wearing a red lipstick which it didn't do either
I always don't have feathering issues but with some reds I do.. The H lipstick Rouge Bleu feathers
on me..
The Tom Ford Lip Sculptor in shade Lick does gives my lips the definition I like
Serge Lutens also does a universal lip pencil which outlines & defines the lips, that was what I thought the
Hermes Lip Pencil would do
I did buy the H lip brush which I use when applying lipstick from the tube to outline/define my lips but even
when I put the Lip Pencil on top or under first, it doesn't work for me.
Hope this helps

Thanks so much! I'm a fan of both Tom Ford and Serge Lutens so I have plenty of research options if my H lip pencil experiment is unsuccessful.

The Lutens lip pencil is probably my favorite & the reason I like it is because it a no color colr
(works under nudes & as well as reds) defines your lips & is actually a pencil as opposed to the H lip pencil
which I found to be waxy & not able to outline your lips

Is the Serge Lutens lip pencil shade #1? I went to the site, and I see 3 different shades. Thanks!

 

[getbetterwithH]

Hi. One is a universal nude, two is a red and three is a berry shade

Thank you Love Of My Life, this is exactly what I wanted to know! I have one Lutens lipstick and love it, and it's been on my radar to check out other selections but (ahem) I got side tracked....

You are welcome.
While I do like the packaging of the Hermes lippies (limited editions) I am finding the lipsticks to be drying on my lips.
I like Serge Lutens lip pencils (especially #1) a well as SL lipsticks. I also like Tom Ford as well as La Bouche Rouge
lipsticks & particularly TF lip sculptor in several shades.
I also like the Hermes lip brush to fill in your lips with lip color as well as to outline the edges

Well I did something dumb. I was so excited that the Limited Edition colors were available online! However they're only available on the US site and I'm in Canada. SOOOO I had to order the color on the US site to have it shipped to a friend in the US. I just read on their website though that they're not shipping items right now. I think I should've waited...;_;??? Also too, now I'm thinking the color choice I made was a bad idea.

Why don't you call or email customer service and cancel the order?

You can do that? I figured because it was makeup they wouldn't let you. Thanks for the advice, I'll do that today!

I'm not super comfortable posting shots with my mature face, especially compared to such beautiful fellow forum members, but in the interest of public service... my Satin Rose Mexique!

You are beautiful and the colour looks stunning on you!
I just ordered this from the Hermes website, and Rose Velours for my mum from David Jones. so excited to finally get my hands on it.

Do you use the TF Lip Sculptor before or after the lipstick? Lick is kind of white, right? Or uncolored? Thanks!
