Discover the Unique Formula Features
$36.00/0.12 oz. – $300.00 Per Ounce
This exceptional formula boasts “intense colour” while incorporating a hydrating base enriched with jojoba and mango butter, along with hyaluronic acid and gugul resin, designed to “smooth and plump up lips.” The texture ranges from semi-opaque to opaque, often buildable, delivering a luminous sheen with extremely fine pearl-like particles, though not overly shimmery—except for the explicitly shimmery shades.
The true allure of this formula lies in its remarkable finish—offering a shiny, luminous look that feels smoothing on the lips without sacrificing longevity, typically lasting between four to six hours, and sometimes even longer. Users will appreciate the formula’s hydration and comfort, complemented by a sweet, floral scent with no noticeable taste. The recent update in the shade range seems to focus more on mid-tones in coral and red, with a reduced presence of beige shades.
The Rouge G de Guerlain Lip Colors have undergone updates primarily regarding packaging and the variety of shades available, while the formula remains consistent (as stated by the brand). Now, these lipsticks can be purchased as refills for $32.00 each, allowing customers to select from a variety of cases at $15.00 each. Each refill is equipped with a small plastic cap to prevent drying out while awaiting sale. While I cannot speak from experience regarding long-term storage, the refill cap appears to provide adequate protection. Although I have not tested every shade for wear, initial swatches and applications suggest that the formula remains unchanged.
It’s important to note that the old Rouge G cases are incompatible with the new refills, as the case lacks the necessary magnet to stay attached, causing it to slide off easily. I do not currently own any of the new cases, as they have not been available for purchase yet, but I intend to acquire a couple to assess their feel—likely the Original to determine any weight difference, alongside a new option.
A significant advantage of the refillable packaging is the cost savings when purchasing individual components compared to the all-in-one option. Previously, the original Rouge G lipsticks were priced at $58.00 for 0.12 oz.; now, the all-in-one price stands at approximately $47.00 for the same amount—resulting in nearly a 19% price reduction.
