Top 12 Best Lipstick Packaging

We can all agree that beauty packaging needs to be fit for purpose but I think it definately helps a sale when it's beautiful too! I've put together the lipsticks that I thought were the prettiest and most unusal.

I chose YSL's Rouge Volupt shine lipsticks as the distinctive packaging feels opulent and somehow reminds me of the French palace of Louis X1V: luxurious, gilded & a touch excessive.  The pink and gold Entoinette collecton from Korean brand Etude House is influenced by French Royalty specifically Marie Antionette and the gold logo plaque looks very pretty. My overall favourite is the one from Peripera it has a very ethereal, feminine feel to it. The Dior's Addict lipsticks are a similar design just simpler and more classic. Estee Lauder's lipstick has a very classic vintage vibe to it. Besame was created by designer and cosmetics historian Gabriela Hernanez to replicate the vintage 
lipsticks her grandmother wore. Each lipsticks come in a red velvet bag. My best friend lipstick also have that vintage feel with the intricate bejewelled pewter case which looks like it could be from the Victorian era.

Paul and Joe are famed for their pretty and retro packaging mainly featuring animals and flowers.  They adopted recyclable cardboard lipstick tubes early on and while buying the packaging separately can be annoying it does encourage people to reuse the tubes and not watse more resources. I really love Kat Von D's asthetic- dark florals with a rock and roll vibe, we don't have access to the brand in the UK so it will always be you love what you can't have situation! I loved the ribbon on the Givenchy lipstick tube so I had to include it.Guerlain G lipsticks are in a sleek, futuristic packaging with a double mirror that shields the lipstick looks really convenient for applying lipstick on the go. It makes it look more expensive, I've only seen lip glosses with a mirror on one side of a lipgloss but the Guerlain one looks more elegant. Finally I had to add Smashbox's lipstick ring! How cool is it? It looks like it would be so handy to touch up! It looks like a magical ring with powers that could transport you to another world or give you extraordinary powers!
