Why was the Forbidden City lipstick removed from the shelves? What grade is the Forbidden City lipstick?

The Forbidden City lipstick that was very popular some time ago is actually a joint product launched by Runbaiyan and the Forbidden City. This lipstick attracted the attention of many people as soon as it was launched on the market. Beauty blogger Li Jiaqi also fully recommended this series of lipsticks, but all the lipsticks were taken off the shelves soon. Why is this?

The Forbidden City lipstick announced a complete suspension of production due to quality issues, and all Forbidden City lipsticks were removed from shelves in all stores. The official Weibo account of the Beijing Palace Museum Cultural Service Center posted: "The Forbidden City Taobao original series of cosmetics still has a lot of room for improvement from appearance to quality. So we decided to stop production of the entire line and continue to improve until the best is pushed to everyone." Some people support this, believing that the Forbidden City Taobao's "improvement decision" reflects the brand's responsible attitude towards consumers; but more people questioned it, believing that when designing products and planning marketing, the Forbidden City Taobao should have handed over production to a better OEM factory, and put it online for sale after internal evaluation and professional assessment. This full suspension of production is not only a self-reflection for the Forbidden City Taobao, but also a preservation strategy to stop losses in time.

The Forbidden City lipstick was taken off the shelves because it did not meet quality standards, so the entire line was announced to be discontinued, and all Forbidden City Taobao original series of cosmetics were taken off the shelves.

The Forbidden City Lipstick is a beauty product jointly launched by Runbaiyan and the Forbidden City. The color of the lipstick paste is based on the red national treasures collected by the Palace Museum, and the appearance design of the lipstick is inspired by the costumes of the concubines in the Qing Palace.

The appearance of the Forbidden City lipstick is based on the five primary colors of black, white, red, cyan and yellow and "palace blue". 3D multi-layer printing technology is used to print traditional patterns on the lipstick tube, showing the texture of the fabric and the three-dimensional sense of embroidery. There are cranes, deer, bees and various butterflies on the top of the lipstick tube, and auspicious patterns such as hydrangeas, narcissus longevity patterns, landscape flowers, peonies, and four-season flower baskets on the bottom, inheriting the traditional Chinese aesthetic taste.

The six shades of the Forbidden City lipstick are all derived from the national treasure colors of the Forbidden City, while the design of the lipstick shell is inspired by the costumes and embroidery of concubines, full of the aura of the harem.

1. A very pure red of the Forbidden City. "Langyao Red" looks like a queen as soon as it appears. The lip color is inspired by the red glaze Guanyin statue of Langyao in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. The lipstick shell is inspired by the "Magenta Satin Embroidered Hundred Flowers Pattern Jacket" in the collection of the Palace Museum. The pure red is dotted with cranes and flowers, which means auspiciousness.

2. "Red Bean Paste Red" comes from the national treasure "Cowpea Red Glaze Chrysanthemum Petal Bottle". Compared with "Langyao Red", this one has a relatively low color saturation, and the color tone is elegant and pleasant, revealing a gentle and elegant beauty. The lipstick shell is matched with the color number, and the inspiration comes from the "Pinyue Color Narcissus Group Shouzi Pattern Single Cloak", which is also an elegant temperament accumulated over time and emotion, matched with narcissus, it is low-key but not less noble.

3. The "Black Silk Embroidered Butterfly Bamboo Handle Round Fan" collected by the museum this time also transformed into the coat of the Forbidden City lipstick, wearing a solemn coat, and the addition of chrysanthemums and butterflies also added a sense of mystery. The lipstick is a noble "rose purple", which is more dreamy and sexy, just like the "Jun Kiln Rose Purple Glaze Diamond Flower Tripod Flower Pot Holder" you see, which is small and charming and will instantly attract your attention.

4. When the "bright yellow silk embroidered hydrangea cotton jacket" with a strong royal atmosphere is opened, a "maple leaf red" that is most suitable for autumn and winter is revealed. The red is mixed with orange and brown tones, which is restrained and warm. The prototype of this color is the "alum red round box with flowers and butterflies pattern".

5. The mysterious, elegant and beautiful "tourmaline color" reminds people of the "Peach Red Tourmaline Melon-shaped Pendant" in the collection of the Palace Museum. It still symbolizes the noble temperament of royal power and nobility, but also incorporates the sad atmosphere of love and hate in the harem. The appearance design of the tourmaline lipstick is relatively fresh, with a hint of pink in the white, like the world after the winter snow. If you look closely, there are fairy deer, pine and cypress dotted in it, which contains infinite vitality and possibilities. The inspiration comes from the collection "Guangxi Embroidery Crane and Deer in Spring".

6. The most charming and romantic "Mermaid" color is hard not to associate with the collection "Qing Yongzheng Rouge Glaze Plum Vase", a very girlish style. The "outerwear" comes from the "light green satin embroidered Bogu floral pattern jacket". The bamboo green color is matched with the four-season flower basket, as if people can smell a hint of fragrant and sweet air.

The Forbidden City lipstick, which is both beautiful inside and out, has set off a Chinese makeup trend. Just this lipstick has captured the hearts of many girls. After the official launch of the Cultural and Creative Museum of the Palace Museum, the "Langyao Red" color was sold out in just one night.

The most special thing about this lipstick is that it introduces the world's most advanced 3D printing black technology, which allows the "machine embroiderer" to produce the texture of fabrics and the convexity and concaveness of embroidery, combining traditional Chinese aesthetics with the latest popular colors and black technology to create a set of lipstick that best conforms to oriental aesthetics.

Rich hyaluronic acid and natural beeswax are added to the production process, so that even in the cold winter, the lipstick can moisturize the lips. At 199 yuan per stick, it looks very sincere!
