Lancome Rouze in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir Review

Hello beautiful ladies,

Today I will be writing about my very first high end lipstick which I brought myself. It is from Lancôme and is called Rose Boudoir. Lancôme have many different collections of lipsticks and this is from their Rouze in Love line. I always wanted to try some high end stuff but always restricted myself due to the high cost, but finally I brought some products during my visit to Europe. Actually my dad allowed me to buy these as I didn’t do much shopping otherwise.

I bought it from Zurich for 43 Swiss francs which equals to around INR 2400. I am not sure about its price in India.

My take on Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir:

Before buying this lipstick I did not have any particular feature in my mind, all I wanted was a Lancôme lipstick. But when I started exploring their shades, I came across this particular shade which was obviously love at first site for me (as it was pink). I knew I wanted this, but still I kept on exploring some more shades and finally got back to this one. After buying this I read about this online and found that it is a 6hr stay lipstick and I assure you that this statement is completely true. I tried it two days back. I was going for a party and applied this at around 7. When I came back at around 12, it was still there. Although it was not as bright as earlier due to dinner and lots of snacks which I had in those 5 hours, but it was there giving my lips a beautiful matte pink color. One thing that I noticed was, when I applied it, it seemed a little glossy, but as the time went by, the glossiness faded and it became matte. Maybe this is the reason for its good staying power.

Now coming to the texture and feel of the lipstick, this feels extremely soft and light on lips. The lipstick is not at all sticky. The little complain I have with it is, the time I applied it, it was moisturizing, but after an hour my lips started feeling dry, and again after some time they felt okay. I am confused about what exactly happened, but I suppose that they should not have felt dry. The packaging is elegant, but I don’t like the fact that it does not contain the name of the color and the color is not visible until you open the lid. So basically after the outer cover is thrown, one has to remember the number in order to recognize the color.

Pros of Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir:

• Amazing color and pigmentation.
• Feels very smooth while applying..
• Good staying power, does last 4-5 hours easily.
• Creamy texture.
• Elegant packaging.

Cons of Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir:

• Color cannot be recognized without opening the cap.
• Costly.
• May sometimes feel little dry.
• Name of the color is not mentioned on the lipstick, it only contains the number.

Would I buy Lancome Rouge in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir again?

After finishing this, if I did not get a dupe for this color I may buy it again, but that time I will ask my aunt to get it for me from USA, as it is cheaper there.

Do I recommend Lancome Rouze in Love Lipstick: Rose Boudoir?

Although it is costly, still I do recommend it due to the amazing color and the creaminess.
