Swatches of Marcelle Rouge Xpression Lipsticks in 804 Paris Rose, 950 Delirium, 901 Amour, 855 Cleopatra, 851 Obsession

The Marcelle Rouge Xpression Lipstick ($11.95) line is, in two words, pure genius.  I own a lot of lipsticks.  I even buy lipsticks close to $40 (*cough* Chanel *cough*).  What I didn’t believe was possible is really true: a drugstore line could rival the quality of my most favourite high-end lipsticks.  Click here for the rest of the original review.

  • 804 Paris Rose is a light coral.  It has a cream finish.
  • 950 Delirium is a fiery orange red.  It has a pearl finish.
  • 901 Amour is a bright blue-based red.  It has a cream finish.
  • 855 Cleopatra is a muted magenta.  It has a cream finish.
  • 851 Obsession is a vampy deep wine.  It has a pearl finish.

804 Paris Rose is a beautiful fresh colour that will be a crowd favourite for the warmer months.  950 Delirium has a lot more red in it than MAC Neon Orange.  901 Amour is brighter than Vasanti USA.  855 Cleopatra is an absolutely stunning (!!!) magenta that reminds me a lot of MAC Spitfire from Wonder Woman.  851 Obsession isn’t forgiving of flaky lips because of its dark tone and pearl finish.  It was one of the last lipsticks I swatched, and my lips were pretty irritated and dry from swatching at that point and it shows.  I personally prefer the creams in this batch as they were opaque in a single pass.

    Paris Rose is probably my favorite, but everything else is gorgeous as well! I can’t just pick one!! o.O btw forgot to mention this in your last post, but I love the new lip swatch format (lip next to full face), it’s super helpful!

      Everybody loves that one! I do, too! :) I usually do both lips close up and full face, but in separate photos. There were so many of these I had to go through that I had to condense the photos. I quite like this format also. Thanks for the feedback!
