What do you look for in a lipstick? Comfort and lasting coverage are two things high on the list that we should never compromise on. Add to that a shade, which speaks to you and you’re set! We’ve all been told, and also come to believe, that makeup is an extension of our personality, thus what speaks louder than a smile full of colour. Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Crème Lipstick is described as the ultimate statement-making collection with the ability to transform, embolden and seduce.
Laura Mercier, who is a professional makeup artist herself, have always believed in celebrating what makes us unique. Thus, through the new lipstick collection, you’ll be able to set the tone for your style, mood and message – as demonstrated by Beauty Editor Wei Yeen and Fashion Writer Stephanie Boey. Check out their striking transformations and real-life swatches below as they take on the Laura Mercier Rouge Essentiel Silky Crème Lipstick collection and let their personalities shine through.
