- There are three glosses that I decided against purchasing:  Genie (#52) which is a medium peach shade;  Emoi (#58) which is a raspberry red;  and Impertinence (#59), a deep brown.  These are shades that I don’t feel will work well with my coloring although you may find that they are ideal for yours.

Together with three new nail polish colors, the line will release with a series of new Rouge Allure lipstick shades, some of which mirror the names of the new Extrait de Gloss:

  • Confidentielle
  • Insolente
  • Fatale
  • Excessive
  • Emotive

I suspect that the promotional image that we’ve seen is using a combination of the lipstick and gloss–it’s quite opaque here:

These glosses look really wonderful layered with a lipstick–for example, I layered Fatale with a MAC cool red lipstick in my stash and the effect was really stunning.  Even if you do not get the Rouge Allure lipsticks, I encourage you to try the Extrait de Glosses with the lipsticks that you already own.  The shine and slight sheerness adds a really beautiful depth.

Doesn’t this sound like a lovely time for a poll? How do you feel? Vote for as many choices as you wish (up to 9):

I’m so excited to see which colors you prefer!

  1. I loved this whole series, thanks Amy! Which are your favorites? I’m curious about the new Rouge Allures too–are you reviewing them as well?

    • Steph–I don’t have the new Rouge Allures yet, I wish I did! I bought these glosses at a Duty Free store as I was heading out of Charles de Gaulle airport. I only had a quick second to swatch a few of the new Rouge Allure lipsticks–some of them are quite beautiful. When they arrive in the U.S., I can’t wait to look at them again and choose them. Of these glosses, my favorites are Insolent and Fatale, with the nude coming in third. These are all different enough, plus I like the pigment level of all of them–not opaque but plenty of rich color. Thank you for your comment!! :) I’m glad you liked the series–it was fun to do!

  2. Thanks for your swatches. Those glosses are to die for.
    Btw, I would not call Émoi a warm red, it’s a raspberry shade with a purple/blue touch. As a warm colour I could probably not pull it off ;)

    have I mentioned that I love them already?

    • Lovely–thank you Mia I’ve corrected the post now. And also based on your description realized that I need Émoi too–I love berry reds.

  3. I can already see these will sell like hot cakes! I liked all the colours you picked up.
