The Hermès Thread

[Mcakes]

This thread is dedicated to all things Hermès! While Sephora doesn't carry the makeup line (maybe one day??), that doesn't stop us from wanting these pretties in our collections 😉 

[Sunnysmom]

Aww that sounds amazing @ChristalM , that is such a fun store! Making great memories too! 

[ChristalM]

Ladies! I am finally going to be able to check out the cosmetic line in person this weekend. Until now I had to blindly order. Any recs for a nice browny red shade or a warm tone bronzy? Seems like mostly red and roses from what I can tell?

[Sunnysmom]

Oh lucky you @ChristalM ! 😊Mine are mostly rosey pinks too except for Rose Ombré which is really a fantastic neutral that almost looks a bit flushed tan when on. It’s turned out to be my favorite which is crazy for me. It may not be brown enough for you but here it is. Wait, did you get this one?! 🤦🏻‍♀️😂Will be fun to hear your report back from seeing them! 🥰

@Sunnysmom Ah thanks! Sorry I should have specified the lip shades. I am staying away from the blushes! LOL I have rose plume and I am trying to stick to just the one!

[aviscardi]

Lol. I haven’t tried the blushes yet either. Not sure why but the lipsticks don’t draw me in. 
i was initially torn between apricot and rose tan. I figure if i do try it, should only be one at the $. 

[Sunnysmom]

Oh gotcha @ChristalM ! Never mind! Lol 😆 

I should have figured that out probably! 

[ChristalM]

@Sunnysmom  No No! My mistake! I m really trying hard to stay away from more blushes! We shall see....

[Sunnysmom]

Well I mean you can’t really NOT look at all of the line once you’re in store @ChristalM . 🤷🏻‍♀️😬 💄👜👟

Fun @ChristalM! The lipstick range leans heavily towards the pinks and reds as you said. Not a true bronzy red, but Rose Epice has a terracotta coloring to it.

[ChristalM]

@itsfi Thanks so much for the rec! I picked it up this weekend. I wish it was a wee bit darker but it really is a nice shade. I wish they would release a few warmer shades.

[itsfi]

Yay, your Hermès beauty fam is growing! 😍 I wonder if pairing Rose Epice with a bronze leaning or warmer leaning red lip liner might warm up the lip color to a bronzy red. 🤔 

Agree with you; it would be nice if they expanded the lip shades and tones. They tend to bring out new colors in groups of 3 a couple of times during the year, and they’re typically limited edition colors. 

[ChristalM]

@itsfi Oh thanks! I will look for that one!

Hermès is now expanding its beauty range with nail polish. 

The collection will feature 24 shades that only need one coat. The colors are accompanied by a base and top coat, in addition to hand care tools such as nail brushes and nail files.

The range is led by “Orange Boîte” — Hermès’s iconic orange hue that translates to “orange box” in English — as well as a bold red “Rouge Casaque” and deep pink “Rose Magenta.”

Priced at $45 USD each, the nail lacquers will be available on October 15 at the house’s web store.

New LE Hermes lipsticks are available now on the US site - $72 USD. These 3 lippies are not showing up on the Canada sites - grrrr!!! I don't know what's up with that!

@Sunnysmom @curlychiquita @ChristalM @blackkitty2014 @Samtian @pocketvenus @Mcakes 

[curlychiquita]

Thanks, @itsfi! I'm on the fence. There are so many new beautiful lipsticks coming out that I want to buy.  And the Hermes highlighter, too. It's so hard to decide.  

[itsfi]

@curlychiquita, I understand the feeling, all too well. There seems to be an endless stream of gorgeous lippies that come out around this time and it just keeps on coming with the holidays. The new fall and forthcoming holiday collections always present a challenge to my resolve to not pick up too many lipsticks - at one point "too many" was "any", but well, I needed to be realistic. 🤣

[pocketvenus]

@itsfi Oh wow, sooner than reported! Thanks for the update 🙂

[itsfi]

@pocketvenus, I wonder if the original launch date built in a cushion in case Hermes came across the same issues it had with the blush and lip balm releases. 

[pocketvenus]

@itsfi Given that covid is still affecting logistics, that would be prudent. Always better not to underdeliver!

[Mcakes]

@itsfi Oh boy here we go lol. Trying to refrain 🙈I hope it populates on the Canada site soon!

[itsfi]

"Oh boy here we go lol."  Exactly @Mcakes! I imagine the release of the highlighter will be very soon.
