Rouge Louboutin

The future in-laws were in town a few weeks ago and when we went out to breakfast they handed me the best present ever. Christian Louboutin polish in Rouge Louboutin. I think it's safe to say they know and love me, because this present was spot on. ;-)

If you don't know the story, the first time Louboutin gave one of his shoes the signature red bottom, he did it using a bottle of red polish. That's why this polish and it's bottle are so special. 

More than anything I wanted the polish for the bottle, because that by itself is an art piece. I didn't think much about the actual polish. "Eeh, it's another red" I thought. It is a pretty standard red, but the formula, the formula is outstanding. This is one coat. ONE! Not only that, but I wore this polish for 8 (EIGHT!) days and had minimal tip wear. I did all the normal things while wearing this polish. Typing, using tools, playing with dogs, cooking, cleaning, you name it this polish went through it. It looked practically perfect when I took it off. 




I'm not going to lie, the polish is insanely expensive. Is it worth it? That's up to you. You can find similar reds for much cheaper. I would have bought it if it hadn't been a gift, but like I said, purely for the bottle. What do you think of it?

Enjoy & until next, Amy Lee
*polish used in this post was a gift

  1. Sooooo gorgeous and like you, I only really want it for the bottle. I was set on buying this but I think my WANTS have settled down a bit and now I'm thinking hard of spending $50 on one bottle of polish or like 5 million bottles at polish warehouse. It's so hard to decide! Still, I think this is gorgeous. I think the best part is that your inlaws got it for you because it is just the perfect gift for you. It looks beautiful on you and so damn smooth. Big thumbs up.
