For a footwear brand whose calling card colour is red, corresponding lips and nails are the obvious choices for a move into beauty. Christian Louboutin nail polish came last year, and now a range of lipsticks are joining the line-up in September.
When a woman carries a handbag, we look at her shoulders. When she slips on a pair of heels, we observe her walk. If she applies lacquer to her nails, we admire her hands," said Louboutin in a statement. "An object that embellishes the lips - the beacon of sensuality and organ of communication - has to be fairly amazing. The object should inspire a beautiful gesture."
Like the nail polishes before them, the lipsticks are designed as objects of desire as much as they are colour cosmetics - with £60 price tags to match - in vial-like golden packaging with ribbon ties. The 38 colours are available as Silky Satin, Velvet Matte and Sheer Voile finishes - including a classic crimson, of course
