Givenchy revamped its couture tinted balm line-up with ten new gorgeous shades and a 95% natural origin formulation that promises long-lasting hydration. I've got a few shades of the new
Rose Perfecto Beautifying Lip Balm (C$45 for 2.8 g) to share with you today. To see some swatches and read my review, click......

Packaging:
The Rose Perfecto Beautifying Lip Balm comes in a classy shiny silver tube wrapped in a piece of nude pink leather. Nine of the ten shades feature a marbled effect and the top of the lip balm is embossed with the iconic 4 "G" logo.

Formulation:Infused with hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, shea butter, rose oil, and pink pepper extract, the Rose Perfecto Beautifying Lip Balm has an ultra-slick texture that slides ever so smoothly on the lips. The formulation has a soft vanilla scent and gives the lips a natural, voluminous shine. The three shades I have here have varying levels of pigmentation but compared to the older shades (reviewed
here), these new ones have a more sophisticated tone that lends a more flattering finish. As expected, the balm isn't super long-wearing. The color fades with eating and drinking but the lips are still left feeling soft and moisturized. I've use many similar balms in the past but the new Rose Perfecto is definitely one of the best both in terms of color offerings and formulation.
102 Feeling Nude: This is a subtle pink nude. The formulation is fairly sheer but the color is buildable for a natural, "my lips but better" effect.

315 Berry Break: A soft berry pink, this shade is slightly more pigmented but still sheer. This color is fun but still very wearable.

333 L'Interdit: My favorite of the three is this soft sheer red. The color is very unique in that it manages to be muted yet still fresh and youthful. This shade is the most pigmented out of the three which I quite like because I did not have to use as many swipes to build up the color.
