Chanel lipsticks - Rouge Coco, Rouge Allure, etc.

lol! Now do you need liberte? Maybe you should try the blister sample first.. I know you said Miami Peach is a little watery (forgot which thread), yeah, I tried it at two different counters and they were both watery. It's not thick like some of the other polishes we've seen last year. I felt Nouvelle vague was particularly thick and gooey.
I tried liberte from my sample today and love it too. It's a soft coral peach, very pretty and I had Nars Deep Throat on my cheeks. I'm amazed by the RC shines because although they are sheer, they show up on my lips true to the colour in their tubes. I finally know which colour we don't have at my counter - canotier. I was at the counter today and had a good look at the shines. I finally have a list of what I want. But I went back checking the spring collection and I want Jersey Rose. Haven't bought it yet. Can't decide if I should get a pink RC shine or Jersey Rose.

My RC shine list:
Chance (bought)
Antigone
Flying Cloud
Monte Carlo
Romance
Aventure
and a few other maybes.

Oh and because the counters are now promoting Chance eau tender and eau fraiche, I tried eau tender and am in love with it now. I can still smell the scent on me after 6 hours and it lasts quite well.

I love every single one on your list

I vote for Jersey Rose!!! Its so pretty on.

I am going to try Liberte today. Ooh, yes that had to be so pretty with that Nars blush. But I really would like Flying Cloud

Monte Carlo is like the perfect pinky red on - its now one of my faves. Yes, I agree that they really do leave a true color on the lips. Because mine are so pigmented I was afraid that the color would not show up since they're sheer. Love it

OK, now I really think I should pick up Gardenia . . .

Elegant -- you have quite the collection of the Shines -- love it

And now I really should pick up Jersey Rose.

Maybe Romance/Aventure can wait for the time being.

^^ I really do love Jersey Rose

I played with the lip shine samples that was given to me today. I definitely need Boy! On my pigmented lips it's a nudish pink. It's so simple, but still noticeable and pretty. It's so comfortable to wear, too. I also had samples of Monte-Carlo and Liberte. They are definitely pretty, but I don't want to go nuts. I know that I need Cavaliere. It wasn't one of my samples, but the swatch was too gorgeous. I already have my beloved Sari D' Eau, so I think I'll stop at 3.

[quote name="Miss QQ" url="/forum/thread/170341/chanel-lipsticks-rouge-coco-rouge-allure-etc/1350#post_2108149"] ^^ Thanks, glad I didn't buy it yet. Typically how long does it last? Maybe I had two big sprays on each arm that day so I keep smelling the scent.

[/quote] Not more than 3 hours. Chance fresh last much longer - up to 6 hours

I managed to resist Deauville and Caviliere the other night....and the sleeper Unique. Also thinking about Elise.....but not sure on that one. I'm going to see how long I hold out - I ended up with:

Canotier
Monte Carlo
Chance
Aventure
Bel Ami
Bonheur
And Boy from the initial launch

Tomorrow I'm wearing Pink Peony over Joyeuse....

 

[Winthrop44]

I like the looks of Karla's Elise swatch but haven't decided on it yet either. Pink Peony over Joyeuse will be GORGEOUS!!

 

[elegant-one]

C -

I agree on PP over Joyeuse

Man, do I ever love Monte Carlo on

 

[Winthrop44]

Good to hear! Don't know when I will get my MC since it's part of a Nordies online exchange but I will get it eventually.

The thought of this made me just do a little happy dance . . .

Tomorrow I think I'm going to use the quad - the taupey shade all over the lid, Delicat to highlight (love that color - need a vat of it) and line with Celadon and go over that with the darkest green in the quad......or maybe I'll use RP to line and the deep green in the outer 'v'.....so many options!!

Thanks for thinking of us! Miss you here!

TGE decided to give me another Chanel present today for some reason... He got me the Rouge Allure Fatale. I'm thinking it's sort of similar to Mac's Dubonnet, which I have, but I figure that either I'll divide the love between them or I'll just use Dubonnet as a B2M next time I go... Fatale is a little darker, I think, so no big mystery which I prefer. I've decided also that I'm definitely going to have to pick up Rebelle at some point. I really love it. I also swatched one of the plum RCS today and it was lovely... So, despite my misgivings about the price (it's more than the Rouge Allure Lacques for crying out loud!) I do think I'm going to have to indulge myself.

For some very bizarre reason, I find myself with 2 Flambouyantes, neither of which I have used yet. I cannot for the life of me figure out how that happened! Fortunately, I keep most of the boxes so it's just a matter of finding it - what a dork!

At least I can return it for a different one - I think Deauville is calling me.......
