This past March, the Birkin bag of lipsticks arrived and sold out almost immediately—full of the promise that you would win best beauty on your full Zoom social calendar.
If you didn’t have the chance to snag the first collection, pout no longer, Hermès hive—the brand is launching its Fall/Winter 2020 Rouge Hermès Limited Edition collection. Three new rose-colored shades in matte and satin finishes arrive just in time for socially-distanced patio dining and nightly strolls through the autumn air. All three hues were inspired by the shift from fall to winter and iconic art from Charles Sheeler, John Register, Arduino Cantàfora, and Jean Hélion, per a press release.
Packaged in their signature refillable, color-blocked tubes, the drop includes the vibrant, satin Rose Pommette (reminiscent of sunlit wild rose); the deep, matte Rose Nuit (includes a velvety pink finish and hints of blue); and the subtle, satin Rose Ombre (made with rosewood and waxed palisander).
The brand touts their latest release as a call to those who’d prefer to leave summer behind. Hermès Beauty describes the lush lipsticks as “evoking nights as black as ink and the glimmer of dawn, the vision of a clear, backlit sky, the dry cold of the outside world, and the cozy warmth of an interior.” Consider our fragile souls sold.
The trio of new shades will be available in select Hermès boutiques and Hermes.com today. The lipsticks are $72 and refills are $42, although they can only be used on existing Rouge colors—not the limited edition hues.
If you’re resistant to swapping out your strappy sandals and sundresses for ankle boots and cardigans, consider this your first dip into seasonal dressing.
