I was totally swayed by the beautiful packaging. Please tell me I'm not the only one who has done something like this?

I have the shoes horrible instruments of pain but I wouldn't but this. Most I've ever spent on a lipstick is c£25, I think.

It comes with a cover to keep it in, when carrying it around Grin

Destiny read my mind, if that fell out of your handbag I'd think it was a vibrator!

I used it last night and for those that asked, it lasted well had a good click and felt lovely on. Not to drying.

You could have bought a dressing table with £65!

Are you SURE that's not a butt plug?

Have you tried...? 😀

This reminds me of an Urban Decay one i had with a small 'sword' on the end. Looked very gothic, but was impossible to carry aroud as it kept stabbing things and catching on the linings of my bags. How on earth would you carry the Louboutin one?
I've had the Guerlain lippy, it is lovely but surprisingly heavy! Their products are always luxurious - the KissKiss lipsticks look great too. Just a shame I cant pronounce Guerlain without sounding ridiculous... (or Louboutin for that matter)!

Good on you, it's lovely, it's your money, you liked it, you bought it.

Don't like the look of that. Way too flash. But each to their own. Those Guerlain ones are really stylish.

Mope, not doing it for me either. Way to ostentatious 👎🏻. What a rip off!

I was drawn in by the nail varnish... Then ran away before I bought it.

Frustrated Ooh they look nice. Bargain price too. Might have to get one to try.

Sorry if I sound like a parrot but if you need a satisfying click, great texture and wearable colors, this one from Kiko is a winner.

How does it stand up to having an eyeliner prodded down the middle of it by a 2 year old? This is the current standard by which my lipsticks are judged.

Also I need to know how satisfying the click is? The lid click is most important.

If it makes you happy when you look at it then why the hell not. The nail varnish bottles are gorgeous too. Have you given it pride of place on your dressing table yet?

Guerlain has beautiful packaging on most of their things too.

Tom Ford lipsticks really are lovely. I was sceptical about whether they were worth the price, but they are absolutely my favourite lipsticks and come in great colours.

I'm interested to know how the £65 lipstick compared!

£65. Do you need you bumps feeling.
I'd expect a share of the business for that. Grin.
It's Poundland all the way for me. Okay now and again. I might push the boat out and go to Primark and pay £2. Grin
