Written in Blood: A vibrant, universally flattering deep blood red lipstick made with carmine pigment from the cochineal insect. Carmine has been worn by women for centuries and imparts a stunning red unmatched by other dyes. This is the very first shade we created, and truly the most perfect blood red lipstick we've ever found. This shade is also included in our blood red lipstick trio.
Semi-matte blood red lipstick.
Forbidden Lipstick: An intensely saturated, rich and luxuriant lipstick carefully crafted to reveal bold, daring color and impart enduring moisture. Forbidden Lipsticks offer beautifully dense pigmentation that is remarkably lightweight on the lips; even the boldest shades feel like a comfortably long-wearing balm.
Finish: Semi-matte
Texture: Crème
Aroma: Naturally floral and herbaceous, with botanical lavender and the honeyed warmth of natural beeswax
Net Wt. 0.06 oz / 1.8 g

I like everything about this color
- ABAshley B.ReviewingForbidden Lipstick: Written in BloodI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars6 months agoLove this color!
This is such a flattering color, it’s beautiful! It’s goes on super smooth and it’s a creamy formula. It lasted all day for me with minimal reapplication. It doesn’t bleed like a lot of other lipsticks I’ve tried.
- MBMilanda B.ReviewingForbidden Lipstick: Written in BloodI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars8 months agoWas looking for the perfect red
And while I do love this shade-it somehow comes off kinda orange on my blue/pink/peach skintone, thankfully I have swarm so I can blend to make it look more vampire and flattering to me. I can't wait to pair it with my rose bite lip serum!

This red is so pigmented and beautiful. IT melts into my lips and I almost forget its there. It isn't thick or sticky at all, and doesn't dry out my lips after a long wear either. I didn't have any issue with it feathering or bleeding. I always get a lot of compliments when I wear it!
- DBDana B.ReviewingForbidden Lipstick: Written in BloodI recommend this productRated 4 out of 5 stars10 months agoThe perfect red.
I have searched for the perfect red forever. This red has the perfect amount of orange in it for my olive skin. I love the texture and how it feels on my lips. I only wish it had better staying power or would stain my lips.
- CTCharlotte T.ReviewingForbidden Lipstick: Written in BloodI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars10 months agoBloody brilliant
This is truly the perfect red lipstick. Effortlessly classic and beautifully vampy all at the same time. Pari this with the eclipse creme pigment on the eyes to entrap the dark handsome monster of your most delicious nightmares.

One of my all-time favorite red lipsticks! This one is a beautiful true red shade, very moisturizing and comfortable to wear. One of those lipsticks that still looks great even after a bit of smudging throughout the day or night. And I love the name :)

I love this product and have other shades of Forbidden Lipstick. The formula is creamy and moisturizing without feeling heavy. The smell and taste is delicious; it's a natural lavender which isn't too strong and dissipates after awhile but is such a pleasant feature when putting on makeup. All of the Rituel de Fille products that I have tried smell amazing and it really enhances my experience. I highly recommend this product! The shades are beautiful
