Shiseido Murrey (RD305) Rouge Rouge Lipstick ($28.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark pink with subtle, warm undertones and a soft sheen. This shade had very, very subtle streakiness due the more emollient consistency. I didn’t notice it from a normal viewing distance, but it is visible in the close-up. The texture was smooth, lightly creamy, and easy to apply as it didn’t tug or drag on the lips. It had mostly opaque color coverage that went on evenly. I was able to get four and a half hours of wear out of the lipstick, and it was moisturizing. Bite Beauty Éclair (DC, $24.00) is darker (95% similar).

Shiseido First BIte (RD307) Rouge Rouge Lipstick ($28.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark red with warm, coppery undertones and fine gold pearl. The color coverage was nearly opaque–just a hint of my lip freckle peeking through–but delivered even coverage. The texture was lightly creamy without being slippery and sat well on the lips, as it did not emphasize lip lines or the natural texture of my lips. On me, it lasted for six and a half hours while hydrating my lips over time. Shiseido Toffee Apple (RD308) (DC, $28.00) is brighter, warmer (95% similar).

The texture was lightly creamy with some slip but not so much that it was hard to apply. It delivered good pigmentation that went on evenly and smoothly without emphasizing the texture of my lips. I was able to wear this shade for six hours, and I found the formula to be moisturizing on my lips. Shiseido First Bite (RD307) (DC, $28.00) is more muted, cooler (95% similar).

Shiseido Burning Up (RD310) Rouge Rouge Lipstick ($28.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a bright pop of medium-dark pink with very subtle, warm undertones and a natural sheen.

FORMULA OVERVIEW | Shiseido Rouge Rouge Lipstick ($28.00 for 0.14 oz.) is described as a vibrant, long-wearing, and hydrating lipstick available in 16 shades inspired by red. The pigmentation varied from semi-opaque to fully opaque with a lightweight, lightly creamy consistency that wasn’t too thin or too thick, so it sat well on the lips and made mine appear smoother. The colors applied evenly on the lips and didn’t drag as the texture is very smooth and emollient enough to have a soft sheen but not enough to slide around easily. The formula lasted anywhere from four to eight hours, which was nicely hydrating.

This whole line is stunning. I hope you do a roundup because I can’t even begin to decide which of these to get. I want them all! Every one is amazing and amazing on you. Such consistency.

I read the colours you featured last week and bought Sweet Desire. It is a MLLB shade that suits my fair colouring and dark grey hair. The formula is not as emollient as the Perfect Rouge lipsticks, with a more satin finish, but still very comfortable to wear. This is a new favourite and thank you for showcasing these new products. Shiseido is so often overlooked among the other new releases. I highly recommend this line for the lovely shades of red and the finish. Also, the price is excellent for a quality product. If you like Chanel red lipsticks, then check this new product line for some fabulous red choices.

I wore the Rouge Rouge for three days and found it hydrating. Perfect Rouge is more hydrating, but it has more slip and can settle in lip lines.

Hi Christine, the pigmentation score for Burning Up is literally off the charts 🙂 I am guessing it is not supposed to be 25.5!

On a more serious note, I thought these colors looked like variations of the same muted rosy shade and found them boring when I saw your initial overview post. The more I look at them in these review posts the more I like them! Does Shiseido have a collection with a larger shade range?

Oh no need to apologize Christine, I just wanted to let you know. I sometimes fail at wittiness online 🙂

Too bad about the shade range. Most shades are too pink for me. Perhaps I’ll pick one of the darker reds.

I love all of them but I wish that with this new collection that there was a bigger color selection. Most of the reds seem to be very similar & pinks. The formula is beautiful but Rouge Rouge needs to add a few more color variations.
