Clarins Rouge Prodige Lipstick
August 17, 2010 Clarins recently launched their new Rouge Prodige lipstick collection and so far I'm pretty impressed with the formula. This full coverage lipstick delivers tons of bright color, comfort and shine to the lips. The long-lasting formula also features Brittany algae extract to deliver a high level of omega fatty acids and moisture to the skin.
Hands down, my favorite shades are 116 Coral Tulip and 111 Raspberry Sorbet. The former is a sheer, shimmery coral that flatters most skin tones, especially Asian skin with yellow undertones. It's definitely a light coral I can wear. Raspberry Sorbet has a real pretty deep berry shade. It reminds me of Guerlain's Rouge G in Bella, but this is a far more affordable choice.
The 104 Lilac Pink adds a delicate wash of pearly lavender pink. The 118 Clementine is way too bright on me, but it's great for adventurous gals. All 16 shades have a nice fruity scent that's not overwhelming to the senses. If anything, it sorta makes me wanna lick it.
The slim capsule packaging has a sexy, deluxe feel to it too. If you want to try this new lipstick, go over to clarins.bnkpromotions.com/frenchkiss to enter their fabulous weekly giveaway. One winner will win the entire 16 color collection each week!

I love the classic look of red lipstick -- but just not on me. I dunno why, but it just always seems like too much on me. I guess I'm a neutral kind-of-gal at heart. ;)
It's tricky to find a right red shade for yourself. It also bleeds more easily than other shades so it's fairly high maintenance.
The formula sounds wonderful! I love when a lip color has a lot of skin care benefits.
Sonja, it's so smooooth. Love the fruity candy smell too.
