Beauty Product: Gucci Is Relaunching Its Makeup Line With 58 Shades of Lipstick

Gucci Beauty's high-fashion grid sets the vibe for the re-launch of Gucci's makeup line under the fashion house's creative director Alessandro Michele. The line will  makes its return with 58 shades of lipstick in 3 finishes: Rouge à Lèvres Satin, a satin finish, Rouge à Lèvres Voile, a sheer finish, and Baume à Lèvres, a translucent lip balm. All of the finishes have a subtle violet scent. The lipsticks retail for $38 each.  

When developing the shades, Michele kept inclusivity in mind, offering 10 shades of nude with various undertones along with nine reds.

All of the shades get their names from some of Old Hollywood's most famous lips. Michele drew inspiration from his favorite iconic films and their actresses, coining a black satin shade Crystal
Black after Jean Harlow in Personal Property, a sheer bronzed sand Katrin Sand after Greta Garbo in The Painted Veil, and the clear balm Joslyn Clair after Joan Crawford in The Taxi Driver.

The star of the collection is 25* Goldie Red, a true-red with a neutral undertone that doesn't lean too blue or orange, available in both satin and sheer finishes. It was inspired by Michele's love of the color red, and his lucky number.
