THE ESSENCE:
Lipstick by Le Rouge Français: a subtle array of shades ranging from red grape to rich burgundy, with notes of morello cherry and raspberry seeds.
A lightweight texture that feels like a second skin for a luminous, satin finish.
THE PIGMENT:
The roots of Rubia tinctorum, or dyer’s madder, produce a vibrant red pigment. This ancient plant from the Charente-Maritime region of western France has been used for centuries as a highly-prized dye for dresses, wall hangings and French tapestries.
As well as its dying qualities, the pigment is rich in active ingredients known for their biological properties.
