It's just wrong, especially while with some effort (ok, a lot of effort) you can locate the lipstick at various counters around the country.

Sophia is more olive, much closer to my skin tone, though still a tad warmer. <br /><br />I eventually broke down and bought the Guerlain holiday lipstick (as well as the stars and the gloss). I've come to realize it's going to haunt me if I don't, and I know I'll get a good use of all three.Gaiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11561470171631737626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-40236983097533464452015-11-01T23:17:56.543-05:002015-11-01T23:17:56.543-05:00The answer is tenacity.

The color is just slightly off for me--simultaneously too bright and too uninteresting against my skin, if that's possible. (I'm lighter and yellower than you are.) I also find the lipstick drying (as I've found other D&G lipsticks). Hopefully I'll run across someone who likes this lipstick it so I can give it to a good home. <br /><br />As an aside, I got the Guerlain holiday Rouge G at the same time, and while it's not my favorite color either, it's SO much better on me. Still quite light, but it illuminates my face at least. (I think the base is yellower--so perhaps it goes better with my somewhat sallow skin.) And the lipstick formula (one of my absolute favorites) is infinitely superior. In my opinion, at least.SoSuSamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09890365691156994507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-53688109816504245472015-10-28T09:43:56.297-04:002015-10-28T09:43:56.297-04:00Uh oh...I see this lipstick in my future!

The color is really nice - not sure where the cherry red description came from, but so so pretty and I love the fragrance. And glad to see Sophia Loren as their muse, and not a - oh, I don't know - 20 year old actress with no oomph in her walk, life, eyes. Looking forward to more Sophia Loren colors.
