Happy Monday lippy lovers! So what lipstick are you wearing today?
You know I’m easily swayed by unique and opulent packaging. So when I learned that Tory Burch Beauty is now available at Nordstrom, I immediately ordered the one and only lipstick shade up for sale, Pas Du Tout 01.
I mean, look at this temptress clad in orange and gold!
If this tube was a woman walking down the street, I bet you she will command thousand and one head turns #womancrush
But is she like one of those women having “all pizzaz sans substance”? Let’s scope her out.
Pas Du Tout 01 ($32, 0.1 oz/3 g) is described as “a universally-flattering sheer pinky nude with faint shimmer and creamy texture”. It is subtly fragrant (notes derived from Tory Burch perfume featuring mandarin, grapefruit and cassis). According to the website, it’s a phrase often said by Tory’s father, which is the French version of “she loves me, she loves me not” daisy petal-pulling game.
The skinny. It wowed me but only for a moment. If you are looking for boldness, Pas Du Tout is too frail for you. If you’re looking for creaminess, Pas Du Tout isn’t made for you. Unfortunately, she’s that woman garbed in opulence but lacking in personality. Or better yet, consider her your high school classmate who attracts all the boys just because she’s pretty, and that’s it.
Pas Du Tout is more like a nude lip butter. I had to swipe three times to make it noticeable. The wear time is negligible because you can hardly see anything. But see I am your acne-laden classmate who doesn’t give up on failed chemistry experiments. Applied over a nude or beige lip liner, Pas Du Tout came out quite decent. Meaning, enough for me to keep than return it with absolute disappointment. On a positive note, it’s moisturizing so if you’re up for some fancy lip balm, then Pas Du Tout is the new pretty girl in school you’re dying to meet.
Say hi to Pas Du Tout.
Do you have a classmate like Pas Du Tout?
I do and chances are, she might be reading this, haha!

Love this lippie! You have the best lipstick collection girl! I'm jealous 🙂
Thanks Justina. This girl loves lipsticks so much 🙂
It looks gorgeous on you ! By the way the packaging is gorgeous
Thanks Betzy. Hands down it's a winner packaging-wise
Love it! To be honest, I am not crazy about the orange on the packaging, but her logo itself screams luxury brand.
True that Nicole! The tube is such an attention-getter!
The packaging is amazing. It's really too bad the insides don't match 🙁
Yeah, hopefully her next releases will feature bolder shades
Whoa, I'd buy that lippie just for for packaging, I actually like the orange and the gold combo. I must admit, it doesn't look like there's much color payoff, but I might still get it because I love tinted lip balms.
Beautiful isn't it? It's a keeper, packaging-wise.
I love the packaging.. but I am a woman of style AND substance! Ha! Well, maybe substance. I am a substantial bit of woman.. lol
Amen Nidia! I love a woman oozing with style and substance!!!!
the packaging does look luxe
It does and it's a keeper on that note 🙂
I love the packaging and the shade is beautiful on you.
Many thanks Kim. I think it worked well because I had smokey purple eye makeup?
Such a shame the colour isn't a knockout, but the packaging sure makes me swoon!
Today I'm wearing MAC Dreaming Dahlia. The packaging is of course nothing to write home about, but the colour is pretty. 🙂
Thanks Rach! Hopefully her next lippy releases will have more variety and bolder colors.
That's ashame. I love the packaging, but I might try a different shade in hopes that it would be more opaque. This is just not wow enough for me for the cost! Looks lovely on you though! You wear shades light and dark well!
Thanks Judy. Yeah, I hope that her next lipstick releases will have more coverage and vibrant shades.
I love this packaging!!! It's the main reason I need it! HAHA
haha, I totally support you on that Brooke!
It is so gorgeous! I don't know though, if I had to do all that to make it work I am not sure I would keep it.
I know, kind of a hassle ha? I just wish the next TB makeup release will cater to us women who like bolder shades!
Love the packaging, but if I dropped money on it, I'd want a bolder color.
Amen!that's what I was hoping for too.
The packaging is so elegant! I agree w/ Cosmetic Sanctuary– for the price, I'd go all out!
True that. I want to see more variety too.
That packaging is gorgeous!
Indeed! drool-worthy, check.
GUURRRRLLLLLL! That packaging is stunning! The color is gorgeous too! In Love!
Thanks Laura! I know!!! it's so lovely in person. xo
What a clever review. I guess I'd like the fragileness of it. I know you are bold but we could still be friends!
Definitely my friend! You know I like your cleverness too!
I love the way you wrote this review. I'd actually love this color but I'd never wear it because of the fragrance.
Hey….can you stop making me want EVERY FREAKING THING YOU POST ABOUT? I want this lipstick. I love every bit of it and it does look fab on you!
hahaha! You just made me laugh, like real loud laughter! Thanks for the lovely comment
That packagingggg tho… I'm kind of a design snob so I always appreciate good packaging. Looks lovely on you too!
Thanks Chrissy. I agree, the packaging is undeniably gorgeous!
Such a beautiful color!! I guess I didn't realize Tory Burch had lipsticks. it's beautiful!
She has, and it's time for you to check it out, hahaha!
Oh, guuuuurl. YES! Love it!
