'They are now the top lip products in my rotation,' ms_creilly writes on her love affair with La Perla.
As a young girl, I yearned for few things more than lingerie and makeup—real rites of passage that signified what it meant to be a
woman. Growing up outside of Boston, my family and I would often make the trek into the city to shop, perusing Neiman Marcus, walking around Back Bay where the streets were lined with glittery windows of mannequins dressed in high fashion. I’d ogle the lace-clad women in the La Perla windows; one night, my mother pointed to the store and said,At 14, I asked if we could spend my birthday shopping trip at La Perla. Over a decade later, I remain a devotee of the brand.
When the lipsticks arrived at my house, all it took was one swipe for me to realize this was possibly the finest lip product I have ever used. The matte formula applies with the ease and comfort of the balm, but it has the wear time and depth of color of a liquid lipstick. As someone who has never really mastered neatly applying heavily pigmented lipsticks, the concave tip hugged the contours of my lip and ensured that it looked perfect on the first try.
