Guerlain Peach Satin (540) Kiss Kiss Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a softened, medium tangerine orange with fine gold pearl and a luminous sheen. MAC Style Approved (LE, $22.00) is pinker, less glossy. Givenchy Corail Signature (317) (P, $36.00) is darker, redder. Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Kimber (P, $18.00) is more muted. Paul and Joe Beaute Once Upon a Time (081) (LE, $17.00) is similar. MAC Tart & Trendy (LE, $16.00) is darker. MAC Sounds Like Noise (LE, $16.00) is darker, more matte. See comparison swatches / view dupes.

The Kiss Kiss formula is supposed to be hydrating with a “fine, even, and rich creamy texture” with “impeccable hold.” For me, they are in-between the Rouge and Shine Automatiques in terms of feel and color coverage. They tend to have a bit of translucency to them, so they’re not as pigmented as the Rouge Automatiques, but they’re more pigmented and less glossy compared to the Shine Automatiques. Rouge Gs are creamier and more hydrating, and they’re typically a little more opaque. Peach Satin is mostly opaque with some translucency where the natural lip color will come through. It was creamy with noticeable slip and glided on easily, but it was a formula that would show “lines” if you press your lips together and could have applied more evenly. It wore well for four hours on me and was hydrating, but it’s not particularly long-wearing. The formula has a violet scent but no discernible taste.

I saw this and wanted it.. This from the person who can’t wear orange. Something about this shade appeals to me. It’s not my favourite Orange on you, curiously enough which makes me wonder if it might actually be something I can wear. All the oranges that look fantastic on you wash me out.. hmm..tempting. I like the lightness and slight sheerness of the KissKiss formula (I bought my first in this formula with that recent Red either this fall or holiday season that had a hint of shimmer in it..really super pretty)

For weeks I lamented about missing out on Rosy Silk (just based on how it looked in the tube, I hadn’t looked up any swatches or anything). This made me look for your review on Rosy Silk…which made me feel better about missing out as it doesn’t come across in person the away I thought it was. Peach Satin, on the other hand, is quite a nice, soft peach..but I already have similar in my collection. 🙂

Is this a new color to the range? Bring on more colors, I love this formula. This color might be too bright and yellowish for me but I am really drawn to it for some reason.

Awww, darn it! I was doing so well too with not wanting much this year but this lipstick just broke one of my New Year’s resolutions because I covet it now! Looks really pretty on you, Christine. A little part of me is worried though that if I do somehow manage to gather enough money to get it, something tells me it won’t fit my complexion. But I guess that’s what the almighty lip pencil is for.

There is… a lot of yellow in this orange. Oddly, though, the sheerness and softness (haziness? I can’t quite describe it) of the colour kind of save it. I’m still convinced I’d look ill in it, but like chartreuse, that doesn’t stop me kind of really liking it 😉 The colour though. Liplines can take a hike, LOL!
