GUCCI Rouge A Levres Mat Lipstick 3.5g-#504 Myra Crimson

• Shade: #504 Myra Crimson from the Matte finish line of the Gucci Rouge À Lèvres collection. 

• Size: 3.5 g / 0.12 oz. 

• Finish: Matte — described as “intense vivid colour in a lipstick with a matte finish – all in one stroke.” 

• Formula & packaging details:

  • “Delivering bright and rich lip colour with a soft and velvety feel, the texture … has a silk-like, comfortable finish, without drying out lips or colour smudging.” 

  • Packaging: gold metal tube with narrow ribbed grooves, elegant vintage-inspired. 

• Shade character: From the product listings, this is a rich, vivid red-crimson tone (“Crimson”) with strong pigmentation. 

 Key Benefits

• Bold, high-impact colour: The vivid pigment means the shade delivers strong colour payoff in one stroke — so you get a dramatic lip look with minimal effort.

• Matte finish with comfort: Although it’s a matte lipstick, the formula emphasises a “silk-like, comfortable finish … without drying out lips.” This is helpful especially if you dislike typical drying mattes. 

• Premium luxury aesthetic: With Gucci's signature high-end packaging and brand prestige, this lipstick also adds a sense of luxury — useful for brand assets, visuals, gift ideas.

• Versatility for statement looks: A deep red-crimson matte works well for evening wear, special events or whenever you want a standout lip; it can elevate simpler outfits or makeup.

• Quality formula: The description mentions a mix of pigment and gelling waxes, moisturizing formula, and long-wearing colour. 

 How to Use

1. Prep your lips: Since mattes can emphasise lip texture or dryness, ensure lips are smooth — gently exfoliate, apply a light lip balm and blot off excess before applying the lipstick.

2. Application:

   • Use the sharp edge of the bullet to outline and define the lips. Göucci suggests using the bullet edge to contour the lips for this line. 

   • Then fill in the lips with the flat face of the bullet for even coverage.

3. Desired intensity:

   • For a crisp, defined look: one layer should be enough given the pigment intensity.

   • For extra depth: apply a second thin layer rather than a thick coat to avoid build-up.

4. Optional layering: If you prefer a “matte but softer” finish, you can top with a clear gloss or just dab a little gloss on the centre of your lips to give dimension while maintaining the bold shade.

5. Touch-ups & longevity: Because of the rich pigment and matte finish, be aware that after eating/drinking you might need to clean up edges and reapply. Carry the lipstick for quick touch-ups.

6. Storage: Keep the cap closed, store in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight (important in warm/humid climates like India) so the formula and packaging remain in good condition.
