Nothing beats Guerlain Rouge G in Gigolo for me. 🙂
Great shade 🙂
My absolute fav hue BERRYyyyyyyyyyyyy 🙂 loved all the shades you mentioned and tried YSL , UD and MAC …
Another shade which I adore is GUERLAIN GIGOLO
am really digging FANNY … guess it would be nice choice
Gigolo is gorgeous! 😀
Oh so pretty! Always love berry lippies! <3
Me too!
Me too!
Oh wow, rebel looks so much darker and more vampy on me (and if anything, I think my skin is darker than yours). Really pretty colours though, I especially like the finishes on the YSL and Bite ones.
Crazy! Maybe it is more contrasting on my complexion (kind of like a lot of shades look brighter on fairer skin tones than mine).
Berries are one of my ultimate weaknesses for lip colors… my wallet is not going to be a happy camper about the price of any of these. 😀
Uh oh! 🙂
Fanny and Aubergine look nice.
They are!
I have Venom and Forbidden Burgundy and they’re such gorgeous colors. Really comfortable to wear too.
So glad you have some beautiful berry shades in your stash, Fancie!
I have Fanny and love it, have Venom and like it a lot (it’s a bit dark/dramatic for day wear for me). Forbidden Burgundy and Aubergine are calling to me — the colors are similar, but the finishes are different. Love the YSL formula in color #19.
I have Fanny, Aubergine, and Venom. I searched high and low for YSL Forbidden Bugrundy and couldn’t find it. I wound up settling on Caress Pink to try out the formula. Love the shade and the formula But it wears like 15 min on me. I have to wear a primer and liner and then it changes the shade! I am going to pick up Rebel ..I love berry shades. I think it looks pretty year round too!
I bought Rebel (with the Vino lip liner to vamp it up even more) this morning before reading this! I’m even more pleased with my choice now!
I love the glossy berry colours and particularly the YSL one.
In England, Fanny means something else. I don’t want that on my lips. :/ Bad name.
No body can go wrong with MAC rebel. It is a cult favourite
xx
I love berry lips. These are all beautiful choices. Somehow I don’t own any these five. I think I need Venom, though! I always though MAC Rebel was supposed to be a vampy, darker purple. I didn’t realize it turned out so much brighter on the lips. It’s very close to Venom. Pretty!
I can no longer find forbidden burgundy anywhere :C its my favorite berry color.
I wonder if they discontinued it 🙁
Venom is on my wishlist!
Loooove Berry shades. It’s been a great discovery for me this autumn/Winter.
Is YSL Forbidden Burgundy limited edition? I’ve been looking for it for years but I can never find it online or in stores 🙁
It looks like they might have discontinued it!
