Lipstick Bandit Fall/Winter Edition: Guerlain Nuit d’Amour Rouge Automatique

November 14, 2011 Paris B 62 Comments

In the Northern Hemisphere, the temperature has cooled and we’re starting to hear the jingle jingle of sleigh bells and carols in the air and perhaps, just perhaps, you are looking for a lip colour for the Fall/Winter/Holiday season. Well, you’ve come to the right place! Let the Lipstick Bandits help you in your quest! 😀

nuit d'amour

My contribution is the Guerlain Rouge Automatique No. 170 Nuit d’Amour. I love this one because this is a gorgeous lip colour that is at once surprisingly wearable and beautiful on the lips. Plus its perfect for the party season, dinners, low light situations… where it really comes into its own, and heck, I wear it in the daytime here – in the bright sunshine 😀 Quick review, more photos and other Lipstick Bandit recommendations below!

The Rouge Automatique No. 170 Nuit d’Amour is actually Guerlain’s Christmas offering. When I was first tasked to showcase a Fall lip colour, I panicked. You see, when you live in a warm sunny country its hard to imagine what sorts of colours people will use when it gets cooler and darker. I just want to whip out corals and pinks all the time. So I actually prepared 3 posts before this, with what I thought was a suitable Fall lip colour, until I came onto the Guerlain counter last week and Nuit d’Amour sang its siren’s song.

Here is a picture of Nuit d’Amour taken in bright sunlight. You can see that its actually a plum berry and not black as I originally thought. Here’s the picture I showed you last week that had reader Emma El wondering if I’d gone all goth 😉

In the shade, its a deep deep plum, almost black. In the sun, you can see its got these pretty gold flecks in it but it does not apply shimmery nor glittery. The texture is similar to Chamade and you can read my review on the Rouge Automatique lipsticks here including my take on the packaging. I swipe it on directly without a brush, although a brush will offer better control.

And on my lips, here’s how it looks.

nuit d'amour on lips

Its a deep berry-plum with red tones that isn’t as dark as it looks in the tube. If you prefer something darker you will be disappointed. I was hoping for something more wearable so this suits me perfectly. Its a colour I don’t have in my stash and I love the surprised looks when I whip it out for touch ups, because everyone will STARE at that black lipstick in your hand! 😀 Oh and at the mechanism too of course 😉

This deep colour will accentuate flaky lips though, so be sure to ensure a smooth flake free lip before applying this. It is a little sheer on first application, and the colour can be built up if you apply more layers. This picture shows about 2 layers.

And here’s how I did the rest of my look to go with this lipstick.

Other items featured:

Face: Guerlain Lingerie de Peau liquid foundation 01 Beige Pale, Guerlain Meteorites Perles de Nuit

Eyes: Urban Decay 15th Anniversary palette – Deep End, Ace, Midnight Rodeo (I was trying to replicate the Guerlain Christmas eyeshadow palette) angle’s out so you can’t see a lot of it but its pretty

Cheeks: Lunasol Modelling Cheeks EX01 Soft Pink

Famous last words

If you don’t already have a lip colour in this shade, I think its a good investment. Its surprisingly wearable, its a good formula and it will get you your deserved attention, one way or another 🙂 That of course, if you can still find it, and are willing to pay for it 🙂

      Thank you Jamilla 🙂 I have realized I pull off cooler tones better than warm ones so those are the shades I gravitate to 🙂

      Thank you Lavender! I do think a strong eye, strong lip combo can work very well together. Would you give it a go? 🙂

    Wow, Nuit D’Amour looks beautiful on your complexion, Paris! Yes, this color indeed adds a a touch of festive, but also chic touch to the whole look. I love it that it looks almost black by itself, but appears plum berry on the lips.

    Hmm… my favorite lip color recently has to be coral red I think… Wearing MAC Lipstick in Fanfare a lot.

      November 15, 2011 at 10:42 pm

      Thank you Jess! I’m not familiar with Fanfare but coral red is such a pretty shade! Since its always sunny here it’s easier for me to wear a warmer tone than a cool deep lip. I might have to wear something coral tomorrow! 😀

      *waves smelling salts* lol Thank you Peach! This is a color I cant imagine I’ll see on the streets very often. I do see a lot of fuchsia though which isnt very flattering at the best of times 😛 what sort of colors do you like then?

Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Popped out of my hermitage to visit the amazing Jo Malone installation at Mid Valley Megamall 😍 Jo Malone has always made gifting an experience, both for giver and receiver, and this is what their Jobots are here for - to help you find that perfect gift whether for a friend, family, or for yourself each time you manage to dodge the C-bullet 😆
Go check out the Jobots at Mid Valley Megamall Centre Court & experience their signature hand and arm massages, gift boxing, personalised engraving of your perfume bottles & candle jars & play with the vending machine. You could get lucky! 
No prizes for guessing which Jobot installation was my favourite! The one with the dog of course! They also had a key chain with a dog. So. Bloody. Cute!! 
And after so many years finally got a photo with event organizer extraordinaire @cyrus.chin because we didn’t get the white & beige memo and came instead in (unplanned) matching sunny coral instead 😂 
It felt good to have makeup on, dress up and go out for a tiny little bit, and meet people I haven’t seen in literally years! Also to enjoy the scents (hard to smell with a mask on though) and the visual delights. Go check it out. They’re there at the Centre Court until Sunday 3 July.
