Wild Orchid - 1952 pays homage to fashion ads of the early 1950s, which featured similar shades as a head-turning alternative to the typical red lip of the time. The haute hue quickly gained attraction and has been revived in this beautiful, deep fuchsia-red shade featuring just a touch of shimmer. Wild Orchid - 1952 feels as great on the lips as it looks thanks to nourishing Vitamin E and hydrating squalene. This stunning semi-matte look will take you effortlessly from day to night without ever missing a beat.

Our application guide is modeled after a two step process created in the 1940s by movie industry make-up artists. It has been used for decades on actresses to give them perfect camera ready lips that last throughout a long day of filming. To maximize the wear of your Bésame lipstick, please exercise the following simple steps:

1. Prepare Lips:

Ensure your lips are clean and free of dryness. Hydrate lips with a small amount of your favorite balm and let set for a minute. Blot excess balm and apply a touch of foundation to the edges of your lips. This will lock in the lipstick’s color and extend its wear. Draw in the natural edge of your lips with the Bésame lipstick’s tip sharp point. This will keep the lipstick from bleeding out of the edges of the lip line. Do not overdraw your lip line since this may create an artificial look.

2. Apply Bésame Lip Color:

Using the flat side of your Bésame lipstick, starting at the highest point of the lips directly under the nostrils. Fill in with color, working towards the corner of the lips on one side, then from the center out to the other corner. Apply one coat of color filling in the top and bottom of your lips. If you go outside the lip line, use your finger or a cotton swab to correct it and then blend the area with a bit of your foundation. Press your lips together lightly to distribute the color. For a stronger finish, apply a final coat in the center of the lip. Lastly, use a tissue to gently blot the lips to seal in the color. Blot twice. Add one final coat with one more blot to finish. With the help of CLASSIC COLOR by Bésame, you can now show off and enjoy your beautiful, full lips all day long.

    Wild Orchid 1952

    This Besame lipstick in Wild Orchid is a lovely shade of what I would describe as purple with tones of magenta and raspberry. I'm not an expert in the field of the alchemy that goes into the formulations of lipstick so I just describe it as I see it. When it comes to lipstick I usually wear mostly reds but I also occasionally reach for other shades in berries and plums and mauves just to mix it up seasonally, but I always remain loyal to my beloved reds of all shades above everything. This color is a super pretty alternative to red and I think it's beautiful. These niche boutique lipsticks are a luxury purchase for me and I am very pleased and proud to be the owner of 9 shades of Besame lipsticks. They are highly pigmented and a little color goes a long way. I always start light with them and add more if needed. They wear fairly long and stay creamy and lush. If you have never tried this brand before I absolutely recommend them to lipstick lovers everywhere. They capture the essence of vintage glam in a modern day era. They are like little treasures from another time

    This should be in your permanent collection!

    Purple for Advent and Lent! I LOVE this color! It is my second purchase of this shade, especially with that scary "For a Limited Time" notice! This should be in your permanent collection! It is creamy and shimmery, brightens up the face and makes a great contrast with the eyes. Along with the Violet Brightening Powder and Purple Mascara, could we see an Orchis Rouge in the future?
