New Givenchy: Le Rouge Deep Velvet Lipstick & L’Interdit Intense Fall 2020
Givenchy is on a roll lately (check out the new eyeshadow palettes & face powders that I previously reviewed here, and you’ll totally see what I mean) and doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.

Say what you will, YSL sure knows how to make a visual statement and the new Slim Sheer Matte lipsticks are a perfect example of that. With their elongated tubes and diamond-shaped bullets, I don’t know whether to wear or display them — guess I’ll just have to do both. And can we talk about the elegant lines of that powder compact? Totally display-worthy as well.
