Lancome Rouge in Love... one more time with Miss Coquelicot!

Holy moly you must be tired of hearing me talk about Lancome's Rouge in Love lipstick. The fact is, I love them so much, I keep purchasing shades here and there, fooling myself that it makes less of an impact on my bank account if I buy them months apart. HA! 

But really, they are that good, and for the third time, I am not disappointed.

Miss Coquelicot's (in which you do not pronounce the "t") purchase was inspired on how amazing the shade looked on Jessica from Getting Cheeky. Of course, it doesn't look half is good on my lips, but I assure you, the color is amazing.

On my lips, in daylight.

Swatched on my hand.

As you can see, it doesn't look like anything in my collection. It's peachier, brighter and more orange based. If you're a fan of brights, this is absolutely a unique color. I quite enjoy pairing it with a bright coral blush and mascara alone. Its texture is quite glossy and light and is perfect for summer. The wear time was decent (4+ hours) on me.

Hope you had a great weekend! I'm still nursing a Friday sunburn - it's so itchy!

Have you given the Rouge in Love lipsticks by Lancome a try? If so, which ones are you favorites?

  1. What's the texture like on these? I pictured them to be like rouge coco shines but this is way more pigmented! I love this color on you :)

    1. That's a great comparison! They are less gritty than the Coco Shines I have (Boy and Monte Carlo). The Rouge in Loves are smoother in my experience, and like you said, way more pigmented ;)

  2. Beautiful! I looks more red in the tube than it does on your lips, but I like what the colour actually is on you, you definitely sport it well :)

    1. Yeah, it's hard to get an idea of what this color looks like until you swatch it for sure! Thank you so much! :)

  3. Thank you for the shout out! I beg to differ, it looks absolutely fabulous on your lips :)

    This is probably one of my favorite lipsticks. I think the color is absolutely sublime.
