Chanel Rouge Hydrabase Creme Lipstick by Chanel, Lipstick Review

7.5

It's not a permanent replacement for lip balm, but Chanel's Rouge Hydrabase Creme Lipstick feels great on dry lips. The Vitamin E and chamomile formula soften, and although the color fades after a few hours (sooner if you eat or drink), it never looks dry. There are more than 30 shades to choose from that are semi-opaque with a bit of shine. It looks great layered under lip gloss if you like more sheen. Plus, the super-sleek tube is as gorgeous as the product inside.

I don't like the smell!
luckybetty (880 reviews)

It works fine, and they have colors that I like. BUT I cannot stand their strong smell. Even my husband noticed, and he said "what did you use?". I prefer fragrance-free lipsticks. If you are like me, this is a wrong pick. — 3 years, 8 months ago

Expensive and luxurious.
Selenite (72 reviews)

While I prefer cheaper lipsticks like NYX, this will feel great on your lips. It should for what you pay. — 2 years, 2 months ago
