Givenchy Le Rouge Sheer Velvet Lip Balm

I've tried a bunch of lip balms, but this Givenchy Le Rouge Sheer Velvet Lip Balm really stands out for its build quality - it's super smooth and feels great on your lips. It's a great option if you want a little color without feeling weighed down. The sheer velvet texture gives your lips a soft, smooth look and feel that's perfect for everyday wear, and it's not too heavy or greasy.

The French Kiss Effect: Why I'm Obsessed with Givenchy's Latest Lipstick

summarizeEditor's Summary

I've been on a mission to recreate the 'French kiss' effect on my lips, and I think I've finally found the perfect solution in Givenchy's LE ROUGE Sheer Velvet Blurring Powder Matte Lipstick. The packaging is stunning, and the lipstick itself delivers a soft, blurring effect with just one swipe. But what really gets me is the value for money - the case is gorgeous, and you can even buy it separately if you don't need the lipstick. Plus, when you buy the case at Givenchy in Riv Gosh Mall 'Color', you get a full-sized lipstick for free! My only gripe is that it might accentuate lip flakes, but that's a small price to pay for the beautiful color and long-lasting formula. I've been wearing it for a week now, and I'm hooked. The lipstick feels solid in your hand, and the battery life is amazing - I've worn it for hours without needing to reapply. I've also noticed that the lipstick doesn't dry out my lips, which is a major plus. Overall, I'm so impressed with this lipstick, and I think it's worth every penny.

Texture ✨
This is something familiar and new at the same time. It reminds me of the texture of black, semi-transparent lipsticks like Noir Midnight, but matte and without glitter. I really like it, which is why I also went for Sheer Velvet.
