Lancôme L'Absolu Rouge in 349 Rose Carrousel

Pink lipsticks are kind of a weakness of mine, so it's no surprise that I'm loving Lancôme's L'Absolu Rouge in 349 Rose Carrousel* ($36 CAD)! This new line of lipstick comes in a wide variety of shades, but I'm absolutely loving this beautiful pink shade for now!

"Wrap your lips in rich, satiny color with this deeply replenishing lipstick. Infused with moisture-boosting Pro-Xylane™, lips stay moist, soft and comfortable for up to 8 hours. Antioxidant-rich Vitamin E help keep lips safe from environmental aggressors, so they’ll look and feel healthier day after day. The stay true color won’t feather, flake or fade, so your pout will always look picture-perfect." - Lancôme

The packaging of Lancôme's L'Absolu Rouge is quite simple but still very elegant. This black plastic packaging has a fun magnetic closure and a rose imprint on the lipstick bullet itself. The only part of this lipstick that I'm not crazy about is the scent - it's a very strong floral scent. I'm all for scented lipsticks, but this scent is just a bit too strong for my taste. 

The shade 349 Rose Carrousel is a gorgeous bright pink with red undertones. This formula glides on smoothly, and the pigmentation is great. One swipe will give you full on colour with a shiny finish. I get about 3-4 hours of hydration out of this lipstick formula, which I think is pretty great! This formula will transfer slightly while eating, drinking, kissing, etc. However, I still get about 6-7 hours of wear out of this lipstick! 

This creamy lipstick has completely impressed me - I'm already longing over more shades! Pink Sapphire and Rose Crystal are next on my wishlist! Have you tried out any of Lancôme's L'Absolu Rouges yet? If so, leave me your shade recommendations in a comment below! :)
