Dolce & Gabbana Cosmopolitan Lipstick
Dolce & Gabbana Does Coral for Fall
Dolce & Gabbana Cosmopolitan (237) Classic Cream Lipstick ($30.00 for 0.13 oz.) is a vibrant coral with a softer orange undertone–it’s almost a true coral. It has a creamy finish and feel accompanied by a glossy shine. It applies easily and evenly with opaque color in a single layer. This shade would be flattering on warmer skin tones, especially those with yellow undertones.
I get an average of four hours of wear with Dolce & Gabbana’s Classic Cream Lipsticks, and I find them comfortable to wear, but I would not describe them as moisturizing (but not drying either). All Dolce & Gabbana’s lipsticks are heavily rose-scented, and I do consider them some of the heaviest scented products I’ve come across. If you aren’t keen on roses, you may find these too strong.

RECOMMENDATION: Though it feels like a color that is really more suited for summer, Dolce & Gabbana seem to think otherwise, which gives me an excuse to rock coral even as the temperatures drop. This is a shade that would work best on warmer skin tones, even better on darker skin tones.

Product & Review FAQ
Where can I purchase a Cosmopolitan? How much is it?
Saks, $30.
Is it limited edition?
No.
Any dupes?
MAC Vegas Volt is similar, though it is noticeably lighter. Illamasqua's Mistress is a lipgloss version that is a touch darker.
It could!
Omg its the perfect coral color! Can you please swatch it next to vegas volt?
Vegas Volt is significantly lighter - I think I mentioned that in the FAQ!
Luuuurrvvvley colour. I have Vegas Volt on my wishlist and I imediately thought of that colour when I saw this so I think when I next to go MAC I will have to pick up that colour.
WOW. LOVE IT. I have a VERY SIMILAR color but it's by YSL.
this looks very similar to Jazzed by MAC, to me on here. Is it even close, though?
Jazzed looks very different on me - http://www.temptalia.com/mac-in-the-groove-collection-lipsticks-review-photos-swatches
This color is ok, just a little too bright. A good dupe for it would be Lime Crime Cosmo lipstick. I think they look alike.
Oh I just love how opaque this is and the shade is beautiful!
Oh My God. This is so beautiful!!!!
Holy cow! I doubt I could pull it off but that is beautiful! Christine, for real, you need to put THAT in your regular lipstick lineup. That color is stunning on you.
AAH I LOVE THIS. I don't see why different colours have to be for different seasons. I understand a red lip is festive for the winter season, but when it's so dreary outside and I don't bother with too much eye makeup because it's -30 out in a snowstorm and it will just come off, I love a nice happy-coloured lip!
That color was made for you Christine.
This shade was made for you-it looks stunning!
What a gorgeous colour .... makes me think of Florida. Wish I were there now ... it's snowing like heck here in Montreal ;-(
I definitely have to get this! It'll be my first D&G product.
So gorgeous !
Loving the color, but I'm neither warm skin nor dark skin, so... :/
So? I'm super light and pink-toned but I would rock it! Wear whatever you want, there are no rules in makeup. :)
i really want to get my hands on the dolce and gabbana makeup! i love some of the lipstick colours.
so so so beautiful
Such a beautiful colour! =)
Love! Coral lips are so stunning, I'll pick it up if I happen to win a cruise to the bahamas this winter. ;)
Oh my!! Gorgeous color, very flattering on you! I'd feel great in this one, unfortunately D&G makeup is not available in my country... bleh... :(
I think this is really pretty and looks nice on you! I think this kind of orange/true coral that is bright but yet slightly muted, is the answer to the bright orange lip trend. It's just more wearable. However I wouldn't spend this much on a l/s I wouldn't wear much. I do have Vegas Volt, so I'll have to try that out again. (I've forgotten how it looks on me lol). I only have one D and G lipstick, and it's the shine or sheer formula in Soiree. Which looks like a natural pink lip color but in the tube looks like a slight pink coral, but the finish and way it feels on the lips is amazing. It's like a lipgloss and a lip balm , but as a lipstick.
Not for me but gorgeous on you, Christine.
That color is beautiful on you!
That's absolutely gorgeous!
OMG...this colour is gorgeous! And it looks so great on you! Wow!
