Chanel lipsticks - Rouge Coco, Rouge Allure, etc.

Palpitante is more pink.

MissQQ - Genial is way more orange than Enjouee which is more on the pink side.

Thanks, elegant. Does Palpitante have the same beautiful shimmer as Famous?

 

[Dominique33]

Famous is a Holiday lipstick with a lot of ( pretty ) shimmer, Palpitante is more a red/pink undertones lipstick. Holiday lipsticks are special, the new Rouges Allure are classy but nothing really special about them except a wide and beautiful colour range of course.

Thanks for explaining the nuances of the Holiday lipsticks. I didn't realize they're meant to be so special, which explains the extra beauty of Famous.

My lipsticks arrived! The texture of the new RAs is divine as previously mentioned by everyone else. Very smooth, creamy and moisturizing without being too slippery or greasy. I'm glad I got a shade from each category so that I could sample a variety of colors.

Pinky coral is the perfect description of Enjouée. I was expecting more red in it like Flamboyante. It's definitely more pink. This makes me realize I need to BU Flamboyante while I still can. I was also surprised that Enjouée is so bright. There's more pigmentation, but I like it. Pirate is a beautiful red and I like that it's a darker red for me. My favorite would have to be Extatique. The color is so unique. On me, it's more of a lavender shade with a pink undertone. Actually, shontay's picture of it is very accurate. I absolutely love it.

I have Inimitable on the way and I think I'm about to purchase Palpitante. These are addictive.


EDIT: I just had to come back and say that these new RAs are perfection!

Can Enjouee work for cool complexions? I'm a cool Asian and corals don't work for me.

I wonder if it would work for you since people say it leans more towards a pink coral? I am cool toned, too, and orangey or red corals don't work for me (sadly, because I think they look amazing on other people). I can get away with pink corals, though. Especially if I lightly use a pale pink lipliner to fill in my lips a little before applying the lipstick. MAC lippies like Ravishing and Jazzed are really pinky-coral on me and I love them!

Oh my word, I love Extatique, too! So glad Shontay turned us all on to it!! I'm going to wear it tomorrow out to dinner (hilarious that I have it all planned out in advance LOL).

I feel you! My one beef with coral is I can't wear them! I love seeing it on people though. So fresh and young!

Maybe I won't get Enjouee. I did try a few pinky coral lipsticks, and nothing worked. Some weren't horrible, but didn't light up my face or anything.

Oooh let me know what you think about Palpitante when you do get it!

 

[Ladychris11]

Iip swatches of the reds! http://www.elle.com/news/beauty-makeup/chanel-rouge-allure-flattering-red-lipsticks But why do I not like Palpitante here? So hard to make decisions. I actually prefer Incandescente in these swatches! I shall wait for more swatches though!

Question - wasn't there supposed to be a new pale pink blush???? Someone help my memory out with this one

Never mind - its star dust.

New collections are up at Chanel.com but you cannot order the blush yet. agghh Why oh why do they have to have so many issues.

I pre ordered L Infedele lipstick and will probably get the coordinating nail polish too.

 

[Antigone]

Ok, I want, no, I need Star Dust in my life!

 

[Ladychris11]

Does anyone already have Incandeacente? Does it resemble Nars Heatwave? I've been lusting over Heatwave for a while now, but I'm not particularly attracted to the way it just fades from your inner lip when you eat, leaving you with that icky outer lip color. I have had this experience with Schiap. Is Incandescente a light at the end of the cave?

So is the holiday collection up on Chanel.com? I was just on there yesterday and saw Star Dust on the drop down menu, but came up as out of stock. Why do they put it up and then not have it available to order?? Well, off to check it out!!

 

[Winthrop44]

I thought I read holiday would be up in Oct, but maybe they said Sept?? Nothing else from the collection is up yet so I guess they're either starting to put it up or were just testing and mistakenly left the blush there? Time will tell.....

 

[elegant-one]

I really want the blush. Did we have any swatches other pics of it? I cannot remember. I am still debating about the darker blue es. What do you guys think, yea or nay?

 

[Winthrop44]

No, no swatches and the only pics I know of are linked in the holiday thread. I think I'm skipping Blue. There are pics of the IdOs in that thread that you may not have seen.

I'm really amused that Elle's editors seem to shy away from red lipstick, but the intern is all for it. Palpitante doesn't seem as fuchsia in that photo, but I don't think the true color is coming across well. I'll be sure to share what I think about Palpitante when I get it. Incandescente (well, all of the reds really!) is on my want list, but that's a color I know I need to see in person. It looks gorgeous on the intern.

 

[elegant-one]

I got to look at all the lipsticks & I have swatch pics!!!

I bought Incandescente - it's GORGEOUS!!!!!! Its that kind of JCrew Model Orange/Coral Red. I wore it full on with just a light flush of MAC's Supercontinental blush & it looked so modern & clean.

Also, I bought from the 3 new lip pencils - Fuschia 55. Its beautiful & not all that "fuschia" Its a beautiful brighter rose fuschia pink. The red is next on my list as its really really pretty & creamy enough to use them on their own to fill the lips.

Post pics as soon as I get them out of my phone. But I'll have to wait until tomorrow to take pics of the ls & lip pencil.

Agghhh, still cannot order the SD blush!

That sounds like a really pretty combo! I can't wait to get Supercontinental.

I'm looking for a new lip pencil too. So far I only own MAC ones and never really use them because they are so dry. I want a pinky nude or light pink, but I think Chanel doesn't have a shade like that. Can you recommend any other brand that has great lip pencils?

Looking forward to seeing your pics!
