But doesn't the article say - for my understanding - that they did one limited lippy?
Perhaps this one (if this pic even "is" something)?

Interested for sure! Refillable definitely feels like something Hermes would do now that it is revealed to be so (hindsight is 20/20 eh).
I'm a fan of the Cle de Peau refillable ones so it won't be the first time I buy case & refill for a lip product. I think it's just another way for them to make more money
I always had to get both a refill and a case, and never just "refill"ed one. Probably because I have way too many lipsticks so it's never gotten to a point where after I finished one (IF I even get to that) I wanted to buy the same one again to re-use the case, and when I first got them in different colors I needed them to have their own cases each...
In the end though no matter how nice the packaging is, the quality of the lipstick itself will be important to me. Here's hoping they are great!

Yes this is what I have, in both versions. It was launched as a Limited Edition in 2000 in lipstick and sheer versions, for the relaunch of Rouge Hermes perfume.
Do all these skin care products count as "baits" towards the bags ? If not I think most ppl will go for CHANEL, DIOR, YSL, cuz the design of hermes lipstick so lame and boring 
as least when I see a CHANEL lipstick it's always classic and chic, when I see the Hermes one, what the hell is that ?

I doubt it. Even if one bought the entire 24 colours and a ton of refills, in H currency/ Birkinomics, it doesn’t add up to much. I think this is just a money spinner and also helps as an introduction to the brand. Hallo Millennials.
Cheaper than I thought, hell it's still cheaper than Christian Louboutin (Famously at $90 a bullet)
Here are my “things” which I bought in 2005. Originally launched in 2000 to mark the relaunch of 1984 Parfum d’ Hermes as Rouge Hermes perfume. Original lipstick and sheer versions.
My SA is cringing at all of this but says that H is going to have to focus more on margins to compete with other houses out there (& says H desperately needs new innovation, cohesion and edge) so bringing in makeup will attract the smaller ticket buyers & casual walk-ins. He joked that the lipsticks are the first of a wave of attempts for H to get past its Kardashian phase. Should be interesting nonetheless, and luxury is struggling right now across the board so this might make sense for them. I like Pierre Hardy and have some amazing boots & shoes from several seasons, but just for me I am not a fan of this packaging. Looks like the seven magic mountains outside of Vegas. If the colors are legit and bold, I am all over it though!

I like the color blocking and color stacking on these, and it makes me want to pick them up and play with them. They will be instantly recognizable. Also hope the formula is luxurious. I’ll buy once for the packaging, but the formula is what makes me buy again.
I think these are beautiful. Thank you for sharing! I also love the packaging and want to see some of the accessories mentioned in the articles. I’m excited for the launch!Posting lipstick colors from another thread.to @Flowerlily

To me the packaging is giving strong Memphis Studio vibes, more specifically Sottsass and Nathalie du Pasquier, which is nothing but a good thing in my book.
I also find it different to what other lux make up houses are doing, all more or less the same thing. And yes, I am one of those people who’d buy a lipstick only for the packaging
