Nature Republic Petit Cherry Rouge in H20 Review

If you're scouring beauty brands for an inexpensive red lipstick, you're definitely in for some treat when you check out the Nature Republic Petit Cherry Rouge lippie in H20 (H stands for high-colour). I bought this last November 2011 during the Nature Republic Grand Opening at SM Fairview and I've been reaching for this every time I'd like a pop of red on my bare face.



What I love about it:

  • highly pigmented
  • inexpensive at P220 (Nature Republic card holders get an additional 10% off!)
  • does not dry my lips out
  • very creamy and glides perfectly on the lips
  • cute and compact packaging; true-blue petite!


Uh-ohs:

  • not long-lasting; i reapply after an hour or two
  • not a perfect red on my pigmented lips; more of orangey-red on me


You might notice alphanumeric codes instead of lipstick names with The Nature Republic Petit Cherry Rouge products. Very Korean, don't you think? FYI: 4 variants are available, namely, High-colour (H), Moisture (M), Glossy (G), and Creamy (C). 

I swatched colors from the Moisture and Glossy variants which resulted to my partiality to High-colour because of its relatively outstanding color pay-off.


I'm still thinking if I should repurchase H20. Sometimes, I find the color too bold for my personality, hee. But I'll definitely check out more shades from the Nature Republic Petit Cherry Rouge line so that I end up with a lipstick that's more, erm, ME.

  2. Argie, I love this color on you! I still haven't found the right shade of red for myself. Or should I say one that I would actually have the guts to wear...hehe. (I'm still stuck on my pinks and nudes! ;)

    Hmmm... i'll try to. :) Since we're meeting up in the evening, I might not feel too shy to wear this.

    Thanks, Lisa. I love pinks and nudes that's why I'm reluctant to repurchase this kind of red. It's too bold for my personality ;D

  4. Wow you guys got Nature Republic stores over there?? How lucky! There's only The Face Shop in where I live and the prices are pretty steep. This lipstick looks great on you, I think you should wear more bold colors like this!

  7. I like your perfectly messed up but not so messed up hair. I tried that but I ended up looking harassed.

    Pareho tayo on red lipstick. Naisip ko sumabak sa red lipstick bandwagon, but I don't have the personality for it. I know they say we should be a little more adventurous, pero I feel like it's much worse when you try to pull-off something that's just not you. Halata.

    I'm sticking to brown-reds for now like Ever Bilena Cherish or something like The Faceshop's BR806 nail polish.
