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 😉

Weighing in from the dark side…of new colors @blackkitty2014 @ChristalM @Ispend2much6 @curlychiquita! 🤣 Rouge H , while is a deeper red in the satin and matte formula is very sheer here. Grenade is more pigmented and very pretty yet both are sheer shines as these are quite a few swatches. I agree and prefer satins and mattes though these are comfy. I’m glad to have gotten them on promos! 

[curlychiquita]

The swatches do look beautiful although I understand what you mean about liking the satin lipsticks.  I’m glad you got them with a promo code! @Sunnysmom 

[Sunnysmom]

They’re very pretty for summer @curlychiquita but I personally feel like for the price of these and regardless of the cute case it’s just a better deal to get the satins for more of a color payoff. Yes, thank goodness for that promo! Crazytown! Will you be seeing these in person soon on one of your trips?! ❤️

[curlychiquita]

Hopefully soon, @Sunnysmom!

[ChristalM]

@Sunnysmom Ah thanks for the tag! 

I have my eye on these. I am going to be able to test these out in person next week, and I am excited to try them out. I usually have to blind buy. I do realize they are sheer but still have my eye on the pink LE one and Rouge H, which might be nice in a sheerer formula in the warmer months.

[Sunnysmom]

Oh that’s so fun @ChristalM ! It’s so much better to see in person as we can. It probably reins me in though as well! Look thoughts on the shades you’re considering. I love Rouge H in all formulas! Have the best time! 💞

[blackkitty2014]

@Sunnysmom I love the look of 77 ❤️ Given how sheer these are we can go ham with bright colors 😂🤣

[Sunnysmom]

Exactly @blackkitty2014! Time to go ham!! 🤣

[Ispend2much6]

@Sunnysmom @They both probably look lovely!

[Sunnysmom]

They’re very nice and comfy @Ispend2much6 and the case is so pretty too. But…! 😊 Are you thinking of trying any? I think you’d like the satin formula if so. Lots of good shades too. 

[Sunnysmom]

New Silky Lip Shines are now available on Hermès site. Pricey rascals. Ooof. 14 regular shades plus 3 LE. The cases of course look beautiful tho there are lots of less expensive comparable alternatives according to various articles. 😊 Refills would be good! Something for everyone. 💞

@Sunnysmom

I had no idea these ran so high. But the new Clinique highlighter is $44. I remember when Clinique used to be cheap…

[Sunnysmom]

Really quite ridiculous @Ispend2much6 , but gotta consider the brand I guess and the art element behind it. Rationalize much you say?! 😆 Ugh. It amazes me how much stuff has gone up. Gonna probably get worse too for imported stuff sadly. Grrr. Don’t get me started! 🥹😭

[Ispend2much6]

@Sunnysmom  Yes, so buy, buy now! Or save $.

I saw some sale wish lists from Canadians and I can’t believe the difference in price compared to ours.

[Sunnysmom]

I know @Ispend2much6 , I feel so badly for them. For so many reasons. 😞

[blackkitty2014]

@Ispend2much6 Highway robbery prices 🤣😂

[Ispend2much6]

@blackkitty2014  It’s astounding. I stopped buying for awhile and now it’s hard to justify buying. But two upcoming gifting days and multipliers brought me to the Rouge Reward so I’m happy!

[blackkitty2014]

In case anyone wants to see Orange Flash. It swatches a bit orange but totally coral on me while wearing. Really fun color for summer. This is more liked lip balm than lip shine. I’m glad I get the fun LE one but I’m not sure I love it enough to get another color. The satin and matte formula are better

[curlychiquita]

Wow, I really like this color in your picture, @blackkitty2014! Thanks for sharing!

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @curlychiquita @Titian06 . If you like balmy texture and soft colors you will like these. I was hoping they’re similar to Sisley but they’re not. Really pretty color though 🥰
