Lancome Rouge in Love 163M Dans Ses Bras swatches and review
Hello ladies! It feels like ages since I've blogged but I am back! A few weeks ago I was kindly invited to the launch of the Lancome Rouge in Love collection and today I have my review of one of the gorgeous shades - 163M Dans Ses Bras. The beautiful and talented Emma Watson is the face of Rouge in Love and she worked closely with Lancome on the shade range.
What they say:
"High-intensity colour, a featherlight feel. Rouge in Love achieves the perfect balance: radiant shades in a surprisingly light texture. Its secret? The exclusive ‘colour catching’ polymer texture melts on application, leaving an essential concentrate of colour.
Lips feel smooth and soft thanks to the nourishing and repairing oils that provide hydration for up to 6 hours with striking shine. As comforting as a balm, as colourful as a lipstick, as radiant as a mirror… An ultra-light texture for endless tailor-made looks that take you from day to night.
Rouge In Love is like a second skin that satisfies your every desire. In short: love at first sight."
You all know that I'm a sucker for packaging and the packaging for this collection is SOOOOOOO gorgeous! The lipstick is housed in a sleek brushed silver bullet and has a red stocking inspired stitching on the back. Very very sexy.
The shades are divided into three moods:
Jolis Matins - fresh shades for daytime wear which are identified with the letter M in the shade number; Boudoir Time - pop shades for cocktail hour which are identified with the letter B in the shade number and Tonight is My Night - intense shades for magical nights which are identified with the letter N in the shade number.
The shade I have for you is 163M Dan Ses Bras and it's a beautiful raspberry red. In the tube it looks shockingly bright but it's extremely wearable and also very pigmented. The formula of the Rouge in Love lipsticks is a cross between lipstick and lip balm which a lot of companies have been creating lately. I enjoy these formulas the most!
Swatch:
This is ONE swipe on my hand! See how pigmented it is? And glossy too? LOVE.
Overall: A new lipstick addiction has started - the Rouge in Love lipsticks are AMAZING. They are super pigmented - something I don't expect with these hybrid formulas. The formula reminds me of the Chanel Rouge Coco Shine lipsticks but much more moisturizing and long lasting which is fantastic. They claim to last 6 hours which I found to be pretty accurate but I still needed to touch up after a few hours. It leaves a nice stain behind if you don't reapply so you still get a nice hint of colour long after the lipstick has worn off. The lipsticks have a slight scent to them and I love that it feels very lightweight on the lips.
The shade does bleed a little so I find using a liner and applying with a lip brush helps to get a clean finish - for these swatch pics I didn't use liner though. This is slightly annoying when it comes to touch ups on the go but reapplying straight from the tube isn't too difficult.
Details: The Lancome Rouge in Love lipsticks are available now in 21 shades from Myer, David Jones and selected pharmacies for $45.

This looks so pretty and much more pigmented than the Coco Shines too. There are so many shades though, I'm not sure which one to go for first!
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely more pigmented which is awesome. It makes it more versatile that way too as you can wear it sheer too! LOL I totally agree - all the shades are so lovely!
DeleteGreat minds think alike! I just posted a review on these lipsticks lol :) They are fab and that colour looks gorgeous on you.
ReplyDeleteYay for the Rouge in Love posts! The shade you tried is gorgeous - I'd be scared to wear it though as it's so dark!
Deletenice color
ReplyDeleteI agree =)
DeleteThe lipstick is a very beautiful red shade. I also love the packaging & the name is so cute. I prefer formulas that are between a lipstick & a lip balm as well. :)
ReplyDeleteI love that it's a raspberry red as it's more wearable =) the name is very cute I agree! The packaging is just so lovely, I want more just to have a pretty collection of them lol.
DeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! I love how the lipstick is not that dark :)

This is the lipstick to make me wear lipstick every day!
ReplyDeleteI first got 163M "Dans ses bras" after I was initially conquered by its advertised and verified qualities. My ideal raspberry red, not over-the-top yet fabulously there. I do without a lip liner personally. Later I put my hands on another one of these silver beauties, this time a deeper, purer red -and just as loveable: 181N "Rouge St Honoré". I don't know if there is a better range of lipsticks out there (that I would like).
