Julie Hewett Film Noir Sheer Lipstick ($22.50) is one way to take the dark lip trend for fall into a subtler, day time/work appropriate lip. Film Noir might look bold in the sleek, classy gold tube, but on the lips its a sheer touch of reddish berry — very, very subtle. Perfect for someone looking to start wearing deeper colors!
See lip and skin swatches…
Where can you buy it?
I know you can get it online, but I don’t know where else.
While that is very pretty I can’t see how this is a dark or deeper colored lippie
It’s a take on the dark lip for those who don’t want to plunge right in.
That’s pretty. Very subtle.
Yes, perfect introduction to the dark lip trend!
oooh. i like that! it’s deep but sheer. certainly speaks to me, at least!
Yes, exactly
Perfect for those who want to try it, but don’t want anything too OTT.
pretty! It’s like Black Honey from Clinique.
That’s what I was thinking, too!
Good comparison!
Wow that’s really sheer! Wasn’t expecting that at all!
Neither was I, ha!
Omg that’s gorgeous! I love the sheerness of it…
I thought some readers might appreciate a sheer color
Awww… It’s gorgeous, but I actually wanted it to be the color it LOOKS like it will be!
Aww! LOL, I have plenty more dark lip features to show y’all, so maybe you’ll find it there.
I absolutely love this line! A deeper, darker shade would be Coco Noir. It’s double-pigmented and really wears.
It’s great someone else has tried this line, too!
Beautiful!
This reminds me of the lipstick queen Saint Rouge. Lipstick queen lipsticks are great. Creamy, sheer and non-drying and also have great staying power.
I haven’t tried anything by Lipstick Queen, aw!
Thanks for this review, Christine. I hadn’t heard of this line before. It looked intriguing so I ended up ordering a lipstick in Rouge Noir. I can always use a classic red.
No problem, Kate! I hope you like it
Let us know!
I just got this and the matching liner today! GORGEOUS! I am NC42/44 and it suited me really well. Good price on QVC, something like $33 for the lipstick and lipliner + shipping.
That’s so good to hear, Ganda!
I’m glad you’re liking it!
