I'm back! :D Sorry for the long hiatus, I guess I've been taking a longer-than-necessary Chinese New Year break from blogging, lol. (⌒_⌒;)

Anna Sui Lip Rouge D

I'd like to share with you a lipstick that I've been using for CNY - Anna Sui Lip Rouge D #373. I purchased this at the Johor Premium Outlets (JPO) early last month, when my family and I attended my cousin's wedding.

Pretty in purple! ♥

The lipstick casing is made from plastic; a black heart-shaped cover with engraved roses and hearts, while the inner plastic casing is purple with printed lace motifs and the Anna Sui logo. It's very light, and does look rather like a toy lipstick because of the plastic, lol. Nevertheless, it's definitely one of the prettiest lipstick designs I've ever seen! (≧∇≦)

Hand swatch

The shade I chose, #373, is a sweet pink shade with very visible shimmer and glitter in the bullet. It goes on fairly sheer, and gives the lips a nice pink glittery sheen. Probably not a shade for those who dislike shimmer or glitter, though.

The texture is smooth and doesn't dry out the lips, although it does have a very slight gritty feel due to the glitter. Lasting power was average - you'll definitely need to re-apply after a meal. What I love is that it has the signature Anna Sui rose scent. (✿ ♥‿♥) You know I'm sucker for rose-scented products.


This is my first Anna Sui lipstick, and I'm glad I managed to get this for a steal at JPO. I think this shade has been discontinued, but after using this one, I'm tempted to go out and buy one (or two) more of Anna Sui's lipsticks. Roses and pretty packaging? It's calling my name already! (｡✪‿✪｡)
