We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities!

Fell in love with the first color and went to look at what it was. Imagine my surprise at Rebel! I already own it and purchased it because of the review!

For holidays I’m also digging Lancome’s Red Haute, Nars Vesuvio, and Revlon’s Red Velvet Lip Butter!

Gigolo is definitely one of my favourites, along with Dragon and Guerlain Bee (wish they’d made this permanent). Oh and Armani 404, speaking of things that should have been permanent!

I own some red lipsticks by MAC and my favourite is Barcelona Red, because it’s red, but not to bright and red. I wish it was a little more cooltoned.

The Milani Lip Flash pencils scream holiday to me, since there are a few that are red and glittery.

The Dior color is very pretty and unique. 🙂
