I finally came out of my comfort zone of neutral lip colors and got palpitante RA and framboise lipliner. I really want to wear bolder colors and find my signature red, though palpitante is described as a raspberry red and is the safest red out of the bunch (looks different on almost everyone), I'm really happy the Chanel s/a tried it on me. I really want to try and see if I feel comfortable (look good) with passion RA on, though palpitante is very lovely I'm still on the hunt for that signature red for me.
The pic.s didn't/doesn't capture/do justice for palpitante's true color, it looks almost fuchsia here, but in person it's more reddish blue.

Oh that looks great! I'll probably get Extatique instead of Enjouee.
Extatique. Please excuse the bushy eyebrows.

I tried again yesterday! Beautiful color, but I'm afraid I won't get to wear that often. Still deciding!Definitely would look lovely on you

Thank you! Yeah, I think this suits me a lot more than Enjouee. I have Enjouee but will let go -- clashes too much with my skin tone.
But it's oh so beautiful in the tube!

I got to swatch these babies finally in the Zurich airport, but unfortunately, they haven't shown up in any of the counters here yet. The texture feels really beautiful. Definitely interested in Inimitable, Pirate, Palpitante... the counter that had them on display didn't have Incandescente, which is the other one that fascinates me.

My favorite Nordstrom didn't have Exatatique and I tested Exaltee for a few hours and wasn't really impressed with the forumla. So I won't be getting any of these babies, I'll stick to YSL & Dior when it comes to lipsticks.

^ I've been thinking as well, whether to just get YSL RPC in Le Orange since Incandescente is the one I want, but I've been a huge fan of the RA's for years. Would you say that the old formula is better than the new ones?

I can't really tell the difference, to be honest. Both are excellent for me. They should bring the old shades back, though for people who missed out.

I agree about the old shades. Since I'm late to the party, I've been hunting down the old RAs. Exotic is the latest one I got. I'd like to get an old RA in a purple shade, but I don't know what color that would be.

I don't know about a purple one, but I do love Exotic. My personal fave is Flamboyante. Excessive is another great one. I just love Chanel's RA's. Hell, all their lip products are great. Just my 2 cents about lip primer: I never used to use the stuff. Didn't see the point. However, after trying Mac's Prep+Prime with some difficult Mac shades, I can't imagine going without it. It makes everything easier. Shades that were already easy become ridiculously easy and they last longer and look better while doing so. I even use it for gloss. I put primer on my eyes so why not on my lips.

I'm getting BUs of Flamboyante and Famous. P+P Lip has quickly become a makeup staple for me.

I personally like the old formula better nor do I really like the shade range of the new compared to the old. Chanel took a step back verses forward with this change but neither the old or new ranks higher than YSL to me. I'll stick to the glossimers when it comes to Chanel lip products.

You could try RAV in La Sensuelle though!
