La Perla - 'Matte Silk' Lipstick - 108 Plum Red 3.5 g
From the lucidity of daytime, into the deepest mysteries of the night –Plum Red always brings its sultry drama.
For a contemporary daytime look, our enigmatic Plum Red is certainly alluring. But it's when night falls that it unleashes its more theatrical side – and your inner seductress. Like a single piece of statement jewellery, one sweep is all it takes to bring complexity and intrigue to your ensemble. Flattering every skin tone, it works with your individual complexion for the final effect: on darker skin it looks distinctively elegant and chic, while the bold contrast it creates with paler skin tones is remarkably daring and intense. Whoever wears it, it makes a statement. Rich Plum Red lips suggest those fascinating evenings where just about anything could happen.
Rich in both pigments and emollients, the sensual texture of our lipstick combines the high impact of a matte finish with luscious, silky comfort. One effortless sweep is all it takes to sculpt and define the lips, drenching them with long-lasting intense colour and protecting them against dehydration and environmental stressors. Its innovative, fragrance-free formula is clean too, free from added parabens and made without talc or D5 volatile silicones. Like a second skin, you won't even know it's there.
The luxury begins with the sensual design of its rose gold tube and is finished with a fluted base in a garnet red colour that's inspired by La Perla lingerie. Twist it up to reveal the intricate lace detailing etched onto the lipstick and note the satisfying click each time you close the magnetic cap. We want it to be as sustainable as it is desirable, so we've designed it to be easily refillable and treasured forever.
Ways to Wear
There's more to it than the one-swipe application. A blot with tissue tones things down, or a slick of tinted lip balm adds a soft sheen. Our trick for fuller-looking lips is to build a focal point of lighter colour at the centre of the lips, over a darker base. Then blend the colours for a gradient effect.
Our versatile formula also makes a great blush. We like to warm it with our fingers before blending it into the apple of our cheeks, for a beautifully fresh look.
