The instant I saw it on your arm, I knew it would be perfect. (even though we're completely different colors, LOL). Such a beautiful shade...I hope it will work for me as well as it does for you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-33053104731005033002011-01-26T08:31:07.362-05:002011-01-26T08:31:07.362-05:00Hi there.

Not "officially refillable", but it is. Just buy a tester, tug off the lipstick tube; do the same with your Rouge G and put the tester lipstick tube on it. And voila!Elainenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-4533040455941646012009-11-11T02:03:42.074-05:002009-11-11T02:03:42.074-05:00The only refillable lipstick I can think of off th...The only refillable lipstick I can think of off the top of my head is Serge, and at that price it had better be! <br /><br />The packaging puts me off the Guerlain too.Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12757180521533165191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-32692272025183082182009-11-10T02:54:50.465-05:002009-11-10T02:54:50.465-05:00Which lipstick is refillable ?

If you want to go there - don't buy it and stay sustainable ! Easy.

However, I had exactly the same thoughts as you regarding the casing. In this age of recycling it doesn't make sense to throw away such a lot of packaging, particularly when it's so beautiful; and my boyfriend agreed on this point. When I finish my Rouge G lipstick, I'm going to attempt the vintage trick of freezing a lipstick with less glamorous packaging and putting it into my Rouge G lipstick holder. It's such a pity they don't make refills.<br /><br />I think the main difference between this and the 'Kiss Kiss' line is that the Rouge G lipsticks are much more moisturising. Whilst the colours are gorgeous and longwearing in the 'Kiss Kiss' line, I always find myself reaching for the lipbalm about two hours into the weartime. Then again, I guess this could be said about copious examples of longwearing liptick.<br /><br />As for the ruby dust, I just dismissed it straight away as marketing hype, and decided to buy the lipstick anyway.<br /><br />- Sarahdempss01https://www.blogger.com/profile/07124278021572754527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-19272520197408575862009-11-09T19:11:40.067-05:002009-11-09T19:11:40.067-05:00Gracia was my first choice as well, and even thoug...Gracia was my first choice as well, and even though I was skeptical about all the hype, I have to admit the formula is gorgeous - emollient, non-slip, and just the right opaqueness. I can't justify all that bling for something that can't be refilled, though, so I don't think I'll be buying any more Rouge G's unless they bring out another colour that I really love.Li Wenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06704116527776708335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-31978864909771158602009-11-09T18:12:17.208-05:002009-11-09T18:12:17.208-05:00Thanks for the review.

And I've received rude, dismissive treatment at Bergdorf's Guerlain alcove several times, so you're not alone there!Jessica Mnoreply@blogger.com
