Holla! I am very happy to show you my first ever Guerlain Lipstick! I bought this during Isetan Sale which cost me around $25 (I can’t remember the price clearly). There were not many choices during the sale, I remember that there were only 3-4 Rouge G Guerlain lipstick. Most of them are very dark vampy or purplish which I don’t like. Luckily I found this one which still very wearable. This is Guerlain Rouge G De Guerlain Le Brillant – B61 Brenda.
The name of this lipstick is so long that it makes me difficult to distinguish many range of Guerlain’s lippies. Anyway, Guerlain lipsticks are super gorgeous in terms of packaging. Previously I have mentioned how pretty YSL Rouge Volupte Range is, now I think this one is worth comparing. I still think YSL’s packaging is better because it’s lighter and more elegant. However in terms of elegance, I think Guerlain has better design.
This lipstick is heavy, in fact this is the heaviest lipstick I own. It’s made of metal with small mirror inside. Although the material is great, this material tend to leave some finger print after I apply this lipstick. I must always clean this lipstick after I applied some. It’s pretty difficult to get nice photo of this lipstick because of its metal case; hence you can see my red camera and me with my pyjamas :p .
You can see how “expensive looking” this lipstick is. Only by looking at it, you’ll know how elegant this lipstick is.
The texture of B61 Brenda is pretty sheer. At first I thought it would look very opaque. I am happy that it turns out pretty natural. B61 Brenda is a coral pink with yellow undertone. This color match my personality very well. I love wearing this lipstick on daily basis; it’s not too bright for office wear yet it still gives the color that I want. This lipstick lasted for about 4 hours with me. I am happy to re apply this lipstick again and again because I am feeling so happy whenever I open this lipstick case and see how beautiful this lipstick is
Have you tried any Guerlain lipstick? What do you think of them?
Thank you for reading







Oh wow–that really is beautiful! When I saw the first few pics, I was thinking “Pretty, but no way would I get that” because it definitely looked like it would be a very full-coverage lipstick. But I love the it’s semi-sheer and adds a pretty wash of color–I really want this now!! Oh, and it goes well with your nails!
I thought so too! I thought it will be very opaque, but I am not sure with the darker colors it might be opaque. It was purely coincidence that it looks like my nails
Meryl I’ll still waiting for the right Rouge G to come along
paying $25 for this pretty thing is a steal! I love how it looks on you. I do have the Rouge Automatiques which I love.
Oh yes this was a steal! This is my first guerlain product and I am very happy of it! What do u think of your Rouge Automatiques?
I love them actually, they are moisturising and gives me opaque and glossy colour. The packaging is also nice, I’m a sucker for classy lipstick tubes.
great to hear that. I should look for a nice color in that range but I am on a high end lipstick ban
This Guerlain lipstick encasing is definitely one of the most elaborate I’ve seen around! I haven’t tried anything from this line yet, but this is a very pretty colour on you. Great everyday shade!
Totally agree! Don’t you think this is very elegant? I have no complain over this lipstick except the hefty price tag. I am lucky to get this at S$25
Thank you for your compliment.
