Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Satin Lip Color

This rich, hydrating lipstick has a subtle rosy scent and resembles fine French cuisine: praise-worthy presentation (the logo is etched on the lipstick), small portions and rich results. Lover, one of more than 30 feminine shades, is the only red I'll rock. (Katherine Heigl wore it to the 2007 Emmys.) Color doesn't last long -- that's Dior's department -- but the hydrating, satin finish and innovative, push-bottom case make reapplication fun.

    Satin Finish Resulting To Sand Papered Lips

    by VLOnline (293 reviews)
    I have a couple of these and found that having Chanel's prestigious name doesn't have anything to do with their lipsticks because these are fairly adequate to use, however, such a shortcoming in luxury quality.

May 8, 2008, 5:10 am I have a couple of these and found that having Chanel's prestigious name doesn't have anything to do with their lipsticks because these are fairly adequate to use, however, such a shortcoming in luxury quality. It's a price to pay to have the elegant Chanel logo but is it worth it? As my lips exposed peeling, chapped skin while wearing this lipstick the unflattering sight was magnified. Although a cream lipstick, this doesn't do much to assure the wearer a comfortable wear as throughout the day, I found my lips in need of emollients to soften them and hydration. I'd suggest a balm worn under this to maximize the wear and reduce the dried and cold look from the lips such as Carmex or Blistex as they soothe the extra layer of skin that can be further buffed off by the wear of this lipstick. The color payoff is beautiful but I found the deeper shades short of pigment and left nothing but a sheer tint equivalent to a gloss. May 8, 2008, 5:10 am

    BE PREPARED TO FALL IN LOVE!

    I am a makeup artist and went with my Mom to the Chanel counter to help her "weed through" and dodge the over-selling makeup artists there (no offense, but we all need to save money where we can).

March 10, 2008, 10:02 am I am a makeup artist and went with my Mom to the Chanel counter to help her "weed through" and dodge the over-selling makeup artists there (no offense, but we all need to save money where we can). Anyhoo, the girls at that counter were nice enough to let me do my own makeover on my Mom. I used this lipstick for the first time. We (yes I said we) have it in "Crazed [32]". Everytime I wear this color women come up to me and say "that is an amazing lip color - I need to get that." So as an artist I decided to try it on some of my friends with very different skintones. It looked beautiful on all of them! I have had my tube since November and still have quite a bit less. Put this on with a lip brush and put some clear gloss over it and you won't be disappointed. I do reapply it a few times a day, but it is so luxurious, it is worth it. This is definitely my "go to" lipstick, which is big, because I have LOTS to choose from in my collection of other lipsticks from cheap to Chanel! March 10, 2008, 10:02 am

    Love the RA formula!!

    Flirt is a fabulous color! A pretty rose shade with very slight shimmer--not glitter, not gritty, not even sparkley.

A pretty rose shade with very slight shimmer--not glitter, not gritty, not even sparkley. The texture of the rouge allures are fantastic--smooth and creamy but with lasting power. I put this on, spent and hour at the grocery store, did some work around the house, ate lunch and it was still going strong. The packaging is elegant--should be for the price, but worth it for the formula alone. Now I want to check out the other colors, will repurchase if I ever finish a lipstick.

    Can't lick this lip stick.

    I am now digging out the last bit Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Color in "Fabulous" with a Q-tip. This may be a first, as I don't believe I have ever liked a lip color enough to finish the tube.

November 20, 2007, 4:00 pm I am now digging out the last bit Chanel Rouge Allure Lip Color in "Fabulous" with a Q-tip. This may be a first, as I don't believe I have ever liked a lip color enough to finish the tube. Chanel Rough Allure in "Fabulous" is well, fabulous. It goes on somewhere between opaque and sheer, with a bit of shimmer (not overdone). Like most lip color it does wear off, but the formula is such that it doesn't look flaky or dry. Sometimes a gloss over the top will even give this lip color more mileage. Only problem, the price. Love Chanel products, but can't always afford them. November 20, 2007, 4:00 pm

    Smooth and sensual

    by chemkink (5 reviews)
    the elegance, the texture, the application, the weightlessness - fantastic. The only reason it doesn't get a 10 is the color selection is not wide enough for me Or maybe just no agreeable to my skin tone) so that's a personal thing November 30, 2007, 4:15 am

    Passion!

    by redgoddess (1 review)
    I love red lipstick, and this lipstick in "Passion" is great! It looks especially good with Chanel's "Sienna" lip pencil. It's one of the few lipsticks which I'm going to use up before it expires. November 21, 2007, 6:50 am

    Favorite Lipstick!!

    by HeatherH (1 review)
    I am a Chanel junkie. I own just about everything they put out including ever color of gloss they have ever put out. When they came out with lipstick I fell in love with the case first. The cap doesn't fall off in your purse. My first color was SEXY which is a muted red. I will forever be buying this color. November 20, 2007, 4:18 pm

June 20, 2008, 5:31 am Known for their luxe items, Chanel has been known to sweep the world with magnificance. Well here is their very own line of lipsticks...performance? Okay. The stuff doesn't last at all. The formula is rich and soothing, but it really doesn't last that long. They have wonderful colors though; very sophisticated packaging and is there really a price that you wouldn't pay for the double backed C's??? I didn't think so! June 20, 2008, 5:31 am
