Thanks you, that's such a sweet comment

It's actually quite pinky on me. The pink shimmers in it are beautiful! I'm now wondering if I should have gotten Excessive as well...
Agree that the colour is made for you! Famous has pink undertones. I tried it on before and it didn't look good on me.

Thank you:) I'm sure there are other Chanel reds that look amazing on you! They have so much choice. Now I just need to find a lipliner for it. I was thinking Beet from Mac would be a good one for it.

WHERE?! Do they have another and can you do a CP, or would that be too expensive on my end?
I found two stores in the netherlands that I can go to and both only have 1 left. I'm sorry, but I would like to keep both. I called a lot of stores and one lady went looking in the computer system and found out which stores still had it. There are two other stores in the netherlands that have it, but its too far away for me:( Maybe you can call a couple of stores yourself and ask them to look in the computer system. You might be lucky and find one yourself!

Thanks and no worries. You deserve them after all of that detective work! Lol, in this day and age I never thought to place a phone call. And I've never been much of a phone person to begin with. Hopefully I will get lucky. Congrats!

I'm also not a phone person, but if that's the way to get discontinued items I'm completely fine with it! I'm in such a good mood now! I really hope you can find it as well.

OMG! I think I found two as well! I ordered them, but I'm not going to celebrate until I actually get the shipping notice. I don't want to get my hopes up too high after Nordstrom canceled my order for Chanel Excessive.

I was a bit panicked when my lipstick was in transit over the weekend. I put it in the fridge right away.

Well, it looks like only one of the Dragons I found will be confirmed. I contacted the store directly, and the sales associate went and dug it out of their inventory drawer. The other Dragon, unfortunately, was just a ghost in their system. But I'm not complaining. I'm happy to at least have one. But I'm still holding my breath until I get a shipping notice...

You both were right! My Excessive, Flamboyante and Insolente were delivered unscathed. Insolente was a little sweaty, so I put all of them in the fridge to be safe. I like all of the colors. They're so pretty. I'm surprised that my favorite out of the three is Insolente. When I first applied them I was expecting a more opaque color. I'm not sure why I keep overlooking the finishes in these higher end lipsticks. It clearly says Satin in the name. I also like how heavy the tube feels and how buttery smooth the lipstick applies. I'm absolutely hooked!

I'm already contemplating my next order. I think it will be Famous, Lover and Attitude. Is it true that Lover is the lipstick version of Dragon?

I think higher end lipsticks used to be less exciting compared with brands like Mac, but now they've really upped their game. Welcome to the world of Chanel worship...

I find Lover to be more blue than Dragon, although both are phenomenal reds. Guerlain's Garconne Rouge G is closer... But you don't want to get addicted to those. It's dangerous.

I had my faulty Ardent RA with me today and it wouldn't spring up after pressing the top for 20 or 30 times so I brought it to the Chanel studio nearby. The SA told me to bring it to the original counter from which I purchased it but I couldn't remember which as it was a few years back. She exchanged a new cap for me, so there is no label at the bottom now. Just to let you know, if you have RAs that you finished up, don't toss the cap away as they may come in handy.

I got Dragon, so here it is! It's not applied perfectly, because I'm not used to this formulation yet, so please ignore that. The colour is beautiful!

Lol, at nearly $50 a tube, Guerlain isn't just dangerous. That lipstick is lethal.
