I solved the Audrey Hepburn Lipstick Mystery (Which lipstick did she wear?)

Audrey Lipstick Hello lovelies, today I will be diving into the mystery of what lipstick Audrey Hepburn wore in Breakfast at Tiffany's. "Hand me my purse, will you, darling?" Holly says, interrupting Paul, "A girl can't read that sort of thing without her lipstick." Breakfast at Tiffany's is a 1961 American romantic comedy film directed by Blake Edwards, written by George Axelrod, and starring Audrey Hepburn as Holly Golightly, a naive, eccentric café society girl who falls in love with a struggling writer. It was adapted from Truman Capote's 1958 novella of the same name. On October 5, 1961, Paramount Pictures released it in theatres to critical and commercial acclaim. This scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's will forever conjure up images of a heartbroken Holly Golightly applying her signature shade of salmon pink lipstick in the back of a taxi. If you're a fan of Audrey Hepburn or simply just a fan of Breakfast at Tiffany's, you're aware that Golightly's lipstick has caused quite a commotion. Bloggers and Reddit threads have gone crazy trying to figure out who made her characteristic salmon pink and what shade it is. As an inquisitive fan, I searched the internet for lipstick and learned about others that were similar to Golightly's shade. I've deconstructed the discussion and compiled a list of top-recommended hues so you can get her characteristic salmon-pink pout, too. This is the lipstick that shows up as Golightly's favourite shade when you conduct a fast google search. However, whether Revlon's Pink in the Afternoon is the correct colour is debatable. Let me explain it to you in more detail... When you look at Pink in the Afternoon, you'll see that it's not nearly as peachy or salmon-coloured as Golightly's. But that isn't even the most pressing worry in this case. A UK-based cosmetics artist, Lisa Eldridge, purchased Hepburn's gold Cartier lipstick container at a Christie's auction. She found a small remnant of one of Hepburn's last lipsticks in the case when she picked it up. Eldridge swatched the lipstick, produced her own batch, and described it as a "genuine salmon pink," alluding to a scene from Breakfast at Tiffany's that was cut from the film. Eldridge claims in her video announcing the lipstick holder that the shade does not come from a brand that begins with the letter "R," and she vows to take the shade's name and creator with her to the grave.
