During my pregnancy, one lip product I kept reaching for was the Givenchy Le Rouge Interdit Balm in No. 10 Revealing Color. I was constantly dehydrated, so I avoided my lip stuff that felt heavy, matte, and drying on my lips.


The lip balm comes in two shades: Natural Finish and Revealing Color. Of course, I went for the black lip balm, or the Revealing Color. 😁 It creates a custom berry shade that deepens the more I layer it on. I find that it leaves a stain, especially after reapplying a few times throughout the day. I like how it is lightweight and comfortable on the lips (even if I apply on heavily), as well as easy to apply. There was never a moment that it would cause my lips to flake, which sometimes happens with even other lip balms I like.
Here’s how it looks on my lips:


From the official website, the shade looks more pink and less intense.

I don’t know since when, but Givenchy is now available at Rustan’s Makati, which is where I bought this. Tahimik na surpresa. LOL As of writing, the Givenchy Le Rouge Interdit Balm costs Php 2,650.
