yes i agree with this - very nice formula and it feels just like a lip balm.
Chanel lipsticks - Rouge Coco, Rouge Allure, etc.

[quote name="Miss QQ" url="/forum/thread/170341/chanel-lipsticks-rouge-coco-rouge-allure-etc/1620#post_2129259"] Debi - Emotive is a cool, raspberry red that I wanted to pick up but I passed it so many times. Very pretty. Insolent is a bright pink. I love the RA formula, moisturizing but not slippery.
[/quote] Second Émotive, it's a lovely colour and comes pretty close to what you are looking for.

Awesome! Thank you! Insolent is very tempting as another one because people compare it to MAC's Pink Nouveau and that looks great on me. What about Mystery? Can anyone describe that colour for me? (Cool, too red, too purple, too dark?) I am looking for pretty, not vampy!

^^ The rouge allure is my favorite formula. I don't have Mystery -- but I have seen reviews where people compared it to MAC's "O" l/s.
Out of the RA formula, I have Instinctive (golden peach), Mythic (nude), Imagination (gorgeous medium pink), Joyeuse (bright pink -- LE Asia collecton -- but the ladies have found out that it is coming to Nordstrom soon), Confidentielle (Peachy pink), and Comedia (another gorgeous pink -- cool).
I have on my list to check out: Incognito (warm med. pink), Adorable (bright plum pink), Desirable (warm hot pink), Exquise, and Ardente (warm pink). The online swatches look absolutely nothing like the actual product -- so hopefully the descriptions help a bit!

So pleased that Jac is the model again, I'm obsessed with her right now. She looks so beautiful in all the chanel promos. I want to check out the red, pink and beige l/s. Fingers crossed that they are moisturizing. And there will be 3 complementary nail polishes and all 3 looks like colours I love! I've never heard of Pirate though, when was it previously launched?

Thanks Miss QQ! I've never heard of Pirate either...but from MUA reviews it looks like it was around from 2003 to 2009 and had a matching Hydrabase lipstick:

Drool. lol They all sound so wonderful! I think Emotive is the perfect rose for me, and now I am looking for a shade lighter, still preferably staying in the semi cool zone! I have to look up various swatches of what you listed now! Something lovely and wearable. In spite of my pale skin, my lips are rather rosy, so medium to rosy lips are what I am looking for. Mystery looks like it might be too red right now and I just bought 2 MAC reds that I am loving!

The nail polish has very good reviews! It may be my very first true red nail polish. Wish I can see the Hydrabase lipstick in real!

thanks for the info msqq... they are exactly what I had imagined they would be. Now to see the actual colours.. but the texture..oh the T E X T U R E
and only 8 colours @ 32 per.. not bad.. lol... and, a total turnaround from the summer sheers.. although I have found that an RCs on top of a matte gives you this velvet type finish (for those who don't want to mortgage the kids).
pirate does sound delicious -- I don't remember it but then I am getting older and foggier.

Well, now I am terribly excited! After a lousy day I have succumbed to my very first Chanel order and ordered 5 lipsticks! Imagination, Desirable, Emotive, Coquette and Insolente! I have my eye on a few more items, but will try and be good for now! It would be great if they came before the weekend, too!

It says November on there. I'm not sure where that blogger is tho - I rarely go there because I don't like being manipulated into voting for things/people.
