Next time you wear one that's[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] hard to pronounce just draw some lips on a 3 x 5 card, color them in and write the name of the lippie next to the lips and pin it on your shirt.[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF] When they compliment you and ask what you're wearing just say thank you and point to the card.[/COLOR]

Hahaha! That's actually a great idea!

I feel that way about a few of the Chanel product names too.

I think it's pronounced something like "Or-Geel".

Not even close. More like or-GAY except that it's not quite an 'a' sound. Close enough for a non-French speaker.

I always forget that in French you don't always pronounce the last consonant! I was gonna say Or-Gayle lol

I can read French but I always end up pronouncing things like they're Spanish words.

That looks gorgeous! I kinda like the blue packaging, it's nice to see that Guerlain is trying something different.

What do you ladies think about the Guerlain perfumes? I can't wait for this new one for spring!

I already need a new bottle La Petite Robe Noire, so I might try the Eau Fraîche!

Ooh, I hope the fragrance is nice. I love the bottle and the colour this time around!

Seriously---with your coloring? I would think it would be very pretty on you.

I just about spit out my water laughing at that!!

Best I can explain it right now - Orgueil is pronounced like Ohr-goyle, except the emphasis on the last syllable is more curt, if that makes any sense.

I swatched it on my hand but I don't want to wear it yet----I'm doing the one lipstick/day for the entire year challenge. So, if I wear it now I can't wear it again for a year!
Tragic right---but I'm up for the challenge. I just have to be very strategic in my lipsticks selections. At the end of the day I put the lipstick in a designated basket, out of
circulation. I also change the text to red for that lippie on my inventory document, and I also note it on a monthly lipstick log. This exercise will help me cull my stash.
If I don't love one that I've worn, I'll B2M it where applicable or dispose of it.
