Beauty news: Gucci unveils Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison

In great news for fans of the brand – and a strong lip look for party season, everywhere - Gucci Beauty have launched the limited-edition Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison lipstick duo for the holiday season. The duo is made up of the best-selling 25* Goldie Red and 710 Fay Turquoise shades, but in to-die-for, exclusive new lipstick tube designs.

According to the brand, the lipstick duo is a celebration of “imperfect beauty” and highlights Gucci’s “come as you are” beauty mantra. Its iridescent formula is enhanced with three different types of glitter, creating a three-dimensional shimmer effect that is almost too gorgeous to sully with actual well, use.

Conveying a new message to the industry and those who wear makeup by Alessandro Michele, the launch of Gucci Makeup has spurred a union of voices behind authentic, imperfect beauty. The Creative Director began Gucci Beauty with lipstick collections: Rouge à Lèvres Satin, Rouge à Lèvres Voile and Baume à Lèvres, and the world was instantly hooked.

Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison is as much for collectors as for beauty lovers, and as aforementioned, are perfect as objects of desire all on their own. Delivering vivid and vibrant colour with one swipe, the glittery formula is coated with iridescent and sparkling pearls to create a velvety-looking shimmering bullet, while the formula is infused with a combination of three different types of glitter to create a three-dimensional sparkly, lustrous layer of intense colour on the lips. Rich and creamy, the texture swipes on like a charm and literally melts into your lips, with an ultra-fine layer of glimmer and iridescence keeping things interesting at all times. 

The two shades of Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison are symbolic of the Gucci Beauty line and the Creative Director’s passion for true, brilliant colour. 25 * Goldie Red is the classic red hue chosen by Alessandro Michele, while 710 Fay Turquoise is an unexpected shade of blue intensified with a glitter formula. The Art Deco inspired patterned and etched gold tubes of the Rouge à Lèvres Satin lipstick collection are given a coloured coating, a fuchsia cap for 25 * Goldie Red, and a green cap for 710 Fay Turquoise. 

Naturally, the campaign to accompany the release is also absolutely unique, with a look into the worlds that influence Alessandro Michele’s creative vision. Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison is photographed by Colin Dodgson on a frost covered antique table, in between lit candles and curious objects and trinkets. Icicles frame the still life images which also show lipsticks from the other collections, Rouge à Lèvres Satin, Rouge à Lèvres Voile and Baume à Lèvres. Just gorgeous and so very, very Gucci.

Gucci’s Rouge à Lèvres Lunaison $69 is a limited-edition duo of lipsticks for the holidays that will be available from David Jones Newmarket from 21 November, 2019. Not long now!
