It's a classic red creme finish with none of the micro-shimmer of Indian Rose or Smoke Red, and it leans a little warm, as it has orange undertones. In the bullet, Scarlet Rouge and Smoke Red are fairly indistinguishable:

Scarlet Rouge is brighter, and very definitely warmer. Smoke Red has a very blue base in comparison. Something of the brightness of Scarlet Rouge here reminded me of Cherry Lush, so I thought I'd compare those too:
Very different in the bullet, aside from sharing the same non-shimmer creme finish. Here's how they swatch:
Very similar in brightness, but the Cherry Lush is definitely pinker. So no dupe here! They're both great colours though.
Scarlet Rouge is a bright, with a soft satin finish. Perfect for scaring people in board meetings:

Scarlet Rouge looks absolutely fabulous on your lips :-)
ReplyDeleteScarlet Rouge is just beautiful on you, I actually think it's my favourite out of the whole collection! Great post
ReplyDeleteOh, what timing! I just reviewed Smoke Red and was wondering how it compared to the other TF reds. Scarlet Rouge looks breathtakingly gorgeous. I can wear warmer reds, but I'd have to keep my mouth closed all day, as the orange does not do pretty things to my teeth. It certainly looks great on you.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the excellent comparison swatches and review. LOVE.
Oh yeah! I'm gonna need Scarlet Rouge!!
ReplyDeleteThat looks lovely on you!
ReplyDeleteI need to scare many people at the moment so this is definately on my list. Thankyou.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for the comparisons as I have both the other reds and wasn't sure if I needed a third. Obviously I do! It is always interesting to see how shades so similar at first sight look very different swatched side by side x
