I never really thought that statement lipsticks can do more than attract the opposite sex attention, it actually works to divert others from my skin imperfection too, hehe =P The truth is, I normally go for predictable and boring colors when it comes to lip products... So when I came across Guerlain Rouge Automatique - Ballade [600] & Guerlain Shine Automatique - Flirt [761] bold shades in a sale last year, I quickly grab them without thinking twice! Who am I to say no to these beauty, right? @_@
These lipsticks might look identical but it's actually quite different from one another. According to Guerlain, their Guerlain Rouge Automatique range combines the radiance of a crystal pigment, the luminosity of colors and fine texture to give a long lasting, moisturizing lipstick that glides over the lips like a second skin. With 25 playful pop shades to choose from, this lipstick is infused with a delicate vanilla scent and nestled in a jewel case & golden sheath that close with just a flick!

The Guerlain Shine Automatique range on the other hand describe by Guerlain as light reflecting cocktail that made of various shimmering pearly particles, tone-on-tone, contrasting, red, blue or golden which boosts lips with subtly sparkling scintillation to give soft, smooth and deliciously glossy lips. Beautifully packed in a jewel case with golden sheath as well, this range comes in 12 gorgeous shades from beige, pink, red to orange hues and have vanilla floriental scent too ^_^
Guerlain Rouge Automatique - Ballade [600]
< Limited Edition >
★★☆☆☆
MY VERDICT : As much as I want to love this lipstick, I don't think it's really meant for me, sigh~ It doesn't show up nicely on me and not moisturize enough as well. I have to re-apply 2-3 times to get the color pop up on my lips... I don't hate the scent but if you're not fond of fragrance lippie, you might want to skip this! And yes, the fancy mechanism undeniably looks exclusive but if you're using it straight from the tube, you've to be extra careful to avoid your lipstick smearing the square edges =_=

MY VERDICT : Contrary to Guerlain Rouge, Guerlain Shine definitely live up to my expectation ❤❤❤ The shade that I bought is quite vibrant and intense, very moisturizing on my lips and a great ice breaker too, hehe =P Having the same packaging and scent like Guerlain Rouge, I have nothing against it but others might feel differently... Other than that, I'm pretty happy with this lippie =) I only wish the color won't fade away too soon, it definitely speaks louder than words, wink2
In love with these golden babies? You can stalk Guerlain counter nearest you or any Sephora outlets to try out the lipstick yourself! Unfortunately, mine are limited edition shades that's no longer available =( Don't worry though, they still have plenty of colors to choose from. I'm still contemplating whether to get Guerlain Shine Automatique in Rose Imperial [261] or Mi Mai [202], mmmm... For more information, please visit Guerlain official site & until then, enjoy your weekend lovelies, adieu~
