Guerlain Rouge d’Enfer (121) Rouge Automatique Lipstick
($35.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a rich ruby red with a subtle sheen. The color coverage is nearly opaque, and it has delicate layer of micro-fine ruby shimmer strewn through the color. It’s a blue-based red, but there is a hint of pink in the base, too, which keeps it from leaning too far on the cooler-toned end of the spectrum. Rouge d’Enfer wore for six solid hours and made it fairly well to the seventh hour, too.
The formula is creamy without being thick or heavy, and it is actually a moisturizing formula. It’s soft and feels like silk when applied. I find these comparable to the Rouge G lipstick, though not as thick or as opaque, but still similar enough. They’re $11 cheaper than the Rouge Gs, and the colors still have the same depth and nuanced shade range that makes Guerlain lipstick always standout to me. To see more photos of the packaging, check out this post. I did not have any issues with the slider of this particular shade!
Chanel Byzantin is similar but a touch pinker. Burberry Hibiscus is quite similar but perhaps a little lighter.

i was just thinking if i should give this away for my next blog contest. great review! makes me excited to get one myself as well hehe. your swatch looks lovely as you! ^_^
So beautiful but too expensive for me 🙁
It looks pink-red in the arm swatch but on your lips – a straight beautiful red !
It seems like it plumped your lips !
You look amazing as usual Christine!
Ahhh!!! You look so pretttttty!!!. If I were a guy I would ask you out!!! ^_^ I looove the color so much. I shouldn’t check your web site, it’s not good for my wallet. I totally love your whole look. Amazing!!! thanks for sharing (give you big hug)
I already had Chanel byzantine in my mind that it pulls quite close 🙂
red is simply your best color…you rock it Christine..:)
ugh I need to make my way over to sephora and buy me some of these! I have never owned a red lipstick… ever.
Christine, in your opinion how does this compare to Chanel Dragon. I know its a cream texture, but color and wear?
Gorgeous! I feel almost like there’s something “soft” about this shade – it makes me think of gauzy layers and diffused light for some reason 🙂
Ohhh yeah, so getting this.
Love it!
That is gorgeous on you! I can’t believe I haven’t tried this formula yet!
It’s been a few years since I’ve used anything from Guerlain, but I love the scent of their products. Your review sounds excellent; I think I’m going to have to buy this now!
Oh man, if I didn’t have Chanel Byzantin already I’d be all over this color!
chanel byzantine looks so much better and brighter! plus dont mean to be a drag but it makes your eyes look red!
One of the best red on your lips !!!
See you from south of France ! 😉
Love your reviews! Looks stunning with your coloring! In the picture where you show bare lips, lips with color, then a full face photo, your lips look more polished / smooth / professional in the full face photo. Do you apply something over your lipstick to achieve that finish? TY!
No, these are swatched from the tube with no other products.
Your eyeshadow looked so pretty swatched around this time! Do you think its the remnants (aside from the lips, of course – ) of this look?

They look similar!
Nope, definitely not!
