From a world-famous luxury shoe designer Christian Louboutin is soon going to reveal a lipstick collection that's going to make any makeup junkie's pulse race.
The line features 36 shades in three different textures - Silky Satin, Velvet Matte, and Sheer Voile - that are inspired by Louboutin handbags and shoes. As with any of Louboutin's products, the lipsticks are works of art, inspired by everything from Babylonian architecture to Art Deco to Middle Eastern antiquities.
There are 20 shades in the Silky Satin collection, which offers a medium-to-full-coverage lip color with a satin finish and hint of shine. Velvet Matte features nine colors, is highly pigmented, and has a soft, matte finish. Sheer Voile also comes in nine shades, with a sheer finish for a veil of color with "luminous shine."
And, because no color collection would be complete without it, each collection contains a signature Rouge Louboutin shade as one of its offerings. Those signature shades will be housed in a black lacquer case, unlike the rest of the line's golden packaging.
Another cool feature is that the cap comes with a small ring at the top through which a ribbon is threaded, so you can turn it into a necklace.
Louboutin quotes " After the eyes, lips represent the most expressive element of the face. And there's the fetish appeal, because lipstick can transform a face from intense to naive or even dangerous. When a woman carries a handbag, we look at her shoulders. When she slips on a pair of heels, we observe her walk. If she applies lacquer to her nails, we admire her hands. With its slow, circular application, lip makeup becomes a rich and sensual gesture." Phew. Is it hot in here, or is it just us?
