Lancôme Rhapsody Rouge - 5 new shades of L’Absolu Rouge Lipstick

Lancôme lipstick L’Absolu Rouge, originally launched in 1990, was revamped in the fall of last year. Its palette of colors was expended, offering 86 shades with names that evoke moods, emotions and moment in French. Celebrity make-up artist Lisa Eldridge created 50 new colors, variations of pinks and reds, from nudes, plums to the bright ones. L’Absolu Rouge was also updated with textures for a different finish: Sheer, Cream and Matte.

In late April 2017, the range is extended by 5 new spring/summer colors, variations of pink, inspired by roses in bloom:

• Rhapsody Rouge 391  (Cream) - dusty, Indian red
• Rhapsody Rouge 354 (Cream) – light coral pink
• Rhapsody Rouge 376  (Cream) - deep pink
• Rhapsody Rouge 361 (Cream) – salmon pink
• Rhapsody Rouge 08  (Cream) - crimson pink

L’Absolu Rouge comes in a desirable case in lacquered black metal, a tribute to the jewel cases created by Armand Petitjean. The case is decorated with a rose as a golden seal. When you click the rose, you release the bullet lipstick, also stamped with a rose.

The face of the campaign is model Taylor Hill.

The price is $32.00 each.
