Guerlain Browny Clap (402) Gloss d'Enfer Maxi Shine Review, Photos, Swatches
Guerlain Browny Clap (402) Gloss d’Enfer Maxi Shine
Guerlain Browny Clap (402) Gloss d’Enfer Maxi Shine ($30.00 for 0.25 fl. oz.) is a medium brown with very fine white shimmer and subtle warm undertones. Urban Decay Glinda is similar–slightly more metallic. Bobbi Brown Bronzed Heather is darker, more mauve. Revlon Rosegold is more mauve. Dior Intimate Bronze has gold shimmer.
It has semi-opaque color coverage–there’s translucency that allows the natural lip color to come through–but enough color that it hides the majority of my lip freckle. The consistency is thin, non-sticky, and lightweight; it hardly feels like you’re wearing much at all. Browny Clap wears three and a half hours on me, which is shy of my four-hour average. This shade has more of a pearly finish, so it’s not as sparkly/shimmery as Cherry Swing, and it isn’t quite as shiny. The formula is hydrating and always leaves my lips feeling better than they did when I initially applied the gloss.
Browny Clap
PPermanent. $30.00.

definitely not special enough for $30 IMO.
for thirty bucks, I’d expect more color payoff….
Wow, this is a gorgeous color. But it’s not on the Nordstrom site yet.
“browny clap”
shudders.
beautiful color, tho!!
LMAO!! The name is pretty ridiculous isn’t it?
I think almost everyone would agree that the name is terrible-I wonder what they were thinking when this name was chosen
It’s an ok colour but the name is just wrong on so many levels!!! Or is that just me 🙂
no, I had a major wtf moment too! not just you.
No….not just you….I seriously wonder what they were thinking with the names in this collection….
It’s not just you–I was thinking the exact same thing. And it’s particularly un-French, haha…
Does it have a scent? I absolutely love the color, but won’t buy it if it will give me a migraine (most Guerlain products do 🙁 )
Just like the lipsticks/powders – floral-ish! (I think it’s violets.)
Meh! I don’t get why cosmetic brands feel the need to add strong scents to makeup products. So many pretty and otherwise high quality products I have to stay away from because of this!
Who wants to apply browny clap to their face? Yuck to the name! Really Guerlain? Do we not proofread the names? I say pass on this one. I can just see my Mum asking me what I am wearing today. Oh, Mum, I have the browny clap. Gasp!
oh i get it. because the clap slang name for an std right?
That was the first thing I thought of – syphillis!
The clap is actually slang for gonorrhea…I don’t know why I know that lol. Either way the name is bad!
The clap is slang for gonorrhea, I know that because I am a gynecologist, but I think I first heard it on an episode of MASH when I was a kid!
Grr Nordstrom, it’s April already, where are they? 😀 (I’m not crazy about this one, but I loved the Cherry shade you reviewed a few days ago!)
I nonshimmer version of this is hourglass extreme sheen lipgloss in TRUTH. also this name is awful
Oh that name! Some translations turn out so awkwardly. This is one of them (or else things have really changed since I was a Brownie).
Very subtle. Like others have said, for that price I’d expect more.
I mean- Browny Clap? COME ON!
Really pretty, but what on earth is that name! Hahaha, oh gosh.
The wacky names make me think a chic French Existentialist philosopher is teaching us the lunacy of life through lip gloss.
This is definitely the best comment in the history of Temptalia.
As I said before this is a collection to order by number not name…as the names are the worst. I think this color is beautiful but not worth the price point!
I like that a lot. Not sure if I’m willing to spend $30 on a lipstick though.
OMG this is spectacular. The color is GORGEOUS–very “mlbb” and the shimmer is understated and pretty and the packaging is delightful…the only thing that I dislike is the name. Browny Clap? Anyone else think that’s totally hilarious?!! 😛 hahaha I think that has got to be THE worst name for a gloss I’ve ever heard. But maybe I have a dirty mind…
“Hey mom, for Christmas there this new lipgloss I want called Browny Clap.”
REALLY???!?!
While I’m at it I’ll ask for NARS Deep Throat and Super Orgasm
That’s not a bad point. Eeek!
My mom REFUSED to buy NARS Orgasm for herself even though it looked really nice on her. She finally broke down and then bought me one too, lol.
It’s OK, but I wouldn’t want to spend $30 on a gloss.
the NAME! seriously why name a product after a sexually transmitted disease? LOL and to call it browny clap…hmm..?
I actually like how subtle it is, but the shade’s name is awful. Oh, my! What were they thinking? 🙁
Not my type of lip gloss. I prefer pink shades for I kinda have pale lips. I find it kinda pricey too. I guess I have to pass on this one.
What a gorgeous shade. So flattering on you, Christine!
Hahah ‘Browny Clap’? Ewwww…I wouldn’t buy it because of the name!!
Any dupes for this colour but in a lipstick? I find gloss too sticky!
Try Bobbi Brown Uber Nude, Guerlain Chant d’Aromes
I have cheaper glosses that look similar to this…going to pass. Can’t justify $30 for a gloss.
I LOVE THIS COLOR! but I wish it wasn’t called “Browny Clap” …I’m not even going to say what it sounds like…lol
I really like the color though, it is my “type”. But the scent if not the price will scare me away, I’ll have to check out some of the dupes.
Ok, what’s with the name? Browny clap sounds like a raging case of STD…
Just got it today because of your review Christine. Love it! Thanks!
