Spotlight | Guerlain Chant d’Aromes (103) Rouge Automatique Lipstick.

Today, I'd like to share with you the latest addition to my collection of lip products. It's Chant d'Aromes, one of the more popular shades from Guerlain's Rouge Automatique line.

This was given to me by a friend, who works at a cosmetics store in Dubai. She's in town for a vacation, and we finally had the chance to catch up with each others' lives last Friday. Thanks for the gift, Grace! :)

This is the tester size, by the way. Full-sized Rouge Automatique lipsticks come in gold, 'one-hand open' tubes such as the one below. The tube doesn't have a removable cap, instead, it has a 'trap door' which swings open and slides the lipstick up once the lever is pushed.

The Chant d' Aromes is a nude, peach-brown shade with a bit of shimmer. It has a creamy texture, which allows for easy-breezy application. Formula is lightweight and non-drying, and the color stays on for at least six hours.

Oh, and the color payoff? Stunning. It definitely was love at first swipe.
Left, one swipe. Right, two swipes.
Just when I thought I have found my MLBB lipstick, here comes the Chant d' Aromes to sweep me off my feet. :)

What I love:

- Luminous finish.

- Buildable color.

  5. I actually do not have a favorite lipstick-I know it is hard to believe but true! I do love the color of the lipstick you have. I also like the idea of the way it is encased then revealed. I have never seen that brand.

  6. I love the natural shade of this lipstick and I also like how it opens. That's a much better system for me than those silly plastic caps that I always drive into the side of a lipstick! This one really does look like your natural lips! Love it!

  11. Wow! This is such a pretty coral-y shade! I'm curious tuloy about the other shades of Guerlain's Rouge Automatique lippies. Not that I own a lot of high-end makeup. XD

    Hmm.. MLBB lippies? I think 80% of my lippies fit the bill! At the moment, I always find myself reaching for my Clinique Chubby Stick Mega Melon and my forever go-to Etude House nude-old rose-ish lippie. :)

  13. First off I love the packaging! It looks so classy :) And the shade, I love as well! It looks so natural on your lips! Too bad though it's kinda pricey. It's something I won't be going for often. But it's pretty!
