Serge Lutens The Ultimate Red Collection: Lip Palette

Anyone who knows me can attest that the second I put on lipstick or lip gloss I do what I like to think of as blotting, but what  others would more accurately describe as taking it off. The reason I blot is because I hate sticky lip-anythings. And finding a matte lipstick that doesn’t dry my lips or permanently dye my lips red for a decade, is nearly impossible. Until recently that is. I tried Serge Lutens’ Lip Palette in red and I am hooked. The palette has four variations of red to choose from—perfect for day or night—and is moisturizing without any stickiness! Maybe because it’s made with high melting point wax and surface-treated pigments. It also comes with two brushes that allow you to perfectly line your lips and color inside the lines. And despite its moisturizing quality it remains smudge proof—all the while you’ll forget you have it on. Serge Lutens The Ultimate Red Collection: Lip Palette ($160, Barneys.com)
