Laura Mercier Evening Pink Shimmer Lip Color

Laura Mercier Evening Pink Shimmer Lip Color ($22.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a bright, neon strawberry pink with opaque color coverage and a lush, natural shine. It’s a strong, bold color that brightens up the face, and it doesn’t lean too blue. VS Be Mine is less pink, more coral. Dolce & Gabbana Fuchsia is less pink and not quite as bright. MAC Party Parrot is darker, redder, and brighter. MAC Catharina is bluer and darker. Chanel Insolente is slightly darker.

Laura Mercier’s Shimmer Lip Color formula is rich in color and has a creamy consistency that’s lightweight and doesn’t slip around. Evening Pink wore five and half hours, and while I don’t always find the formula very hydrating (but definitely not drying), this one was moisturizing while I wore it. There is a noticeable floral scent but no distinct taste.

Where to Buy: Nordstrom, $22.00

Evening Pink is bright and opaque, and it's definitely an unexpected shade for the season. What I really liked about it was the only slightly cool undertones, so it should wear well across skin tones and complexions!

Hmm this looks a lot like my Elizabeth Arden Ceramide lipstick in Watermelon :)

How did you apply this lipstick? Do you usually use a brush or lipliner?

I apply straight from the tube. I wouldn't use lip liner in any lip swatch for a review - since that would alter the color!

It's such a lovely, unique pink! I have to ask though, is Chanel Rouge Allure Insolente really darker than this? Looking at your swatches of both, it seems like this one is actually a touch darker and ever so slightly redder. If I have Insolente, is this one really worth getting? I would really appreciate your answer! Thank you.

You probably don't need both!

Looks more brighter on the tube, gorg nonetheless!

So pretty! Thanks for the review, this is going on my "must have' list, love the color!

This looks lovely and creamy and such a vibrant pink for Spring. I love how opaque it looks on your lips too.

This looks so creamy and wonderful on the lips!

22$?? D: oooohh but its sooo beautiful DD:

This shade screams: "NEUTRAL PINK" or barbie pink, whatever I love the look of it. I probably couldn't pull it off, but still very tempting <3

I love this shade of pink on lips! I like it more than the Mac pink dupes.

Ohh I love this color! It's definitely an more muted version of Party Parrot! Just enough color to brighten without being blinding :) I just wish it weren't $22!

Ahhh this looks like a fun yet wearable bright shade! You really rock it!

This lip is SO hot! I've never even thought about LM lipsticks before but this just looks so creamy and pigmented!

this is beautiful! I love a good pink lip color

How would this compare to Guerlain's Rouge Automatique in Shalimar?

Shalimar is much darker - they are not close at all!

Thank you! Guess I need to pick this one up too then! :)

Such a lovely vibrant pink! I really love the finish of this lipstick too, just lovely :).

That is SUCH a gorgeous color! And it looks like it's a really nice consistency

looks nice on you :)) guess this formula would look horrible on my chappy lips...cause it settles. cute color tho
