too dry and too neon bright
I love the color swathes on my hand, unfortunately on the lips the colors that I tried (pirate, passion, palpitante and incandescente) were too bright. Don't get me wrong I am not afraid of brights, but these are neon bright in a tacky way. This is not the worst - the worst part is that they are way too dry. I cannot believe how mat they are in reality. (I don't have dry lips) Also the color changes when applied on the lips: something blue- red turns orange! The orange - on the lips looks like a raspberry. Dry lips effect does not flatter any age even very young. They are very long lasting - feels like they create a chemical reaction with the lips and tint them forever with a mat powdery surface.

Channel Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip
In my past life, I was a rep. for E.L. cosmetics.(Estee Lauder) I have been using Channel exclusively for the past 15 years. All products are superlative. The lipstick mentioned in my 5 star rating, is nourishing, and lasts long into the day, as I apply only 1x daily, except when going out in the evening. The colors are fascinating, not to mention the names.
I had a partial "lift" 5 years ago, mostly for my neck. The Dr. said that my eyes didn't need any work. Thankyou, Channel, Sublimage for the eye. That is a compliment, since I was a former smoker for 25 years.
Thank you, Channel for your great products. They work!!!

#94 EXTATIQUE, nice color
CHANEL ROUGE ALLURE #94 EXTATIQUE has a nice pigment, long-wearing color, full coverage and does have a soft satin finish. And it does not feel sticky or heavy, you don't know that it is on your lips. I didn't think it was a bright intense color like how they show it on this site. I hope this helps, I wanted you to see what it looks like on my lips and the color of the lipstick.

Stunningly Gorgeous Reds!
I have long been a fan of red lipsticks so when Chanel introduced this new formula and I saw the gorgeous array of reds, I just had to give some a try! Passion is truly a drop dead beautiful red and good for any time of the day. Pirate is a bit darker and for some might be more of a evening color. Coromandel is a warmer bright red and very wearable. Palpitante is a delicious creamy feeling red with a fuschia cast - quite flattering and ladylike! If you are looking for a high quality lipstick, this formula and color variety will not disappoint!

CHANEL LIP COLOUR ROCKS!
I only buy Chanel Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip Colour because the colours are deep and rich and the product lasts all day. It lasts through eating, through exercising, through working and playing. Once I apply my lip color in the morning, I'm good to go and never have to worry about it again. After using this product, you'll be sold for life and won't waste money on any other lip colour.

beautiful formula and color!
i bought two of these for a birthday splurge. never spent this much $$ on lipstick (and i just recently turned 52), so i figured i might as well ring in my second half-century of life with a bang, lol ! these lipsticks DO NOT disappoint. rich, creamy texture with staying power galore. i have 'enigmatique' aka #135, and 'ardente' aka #175 in the rouge allure luminous intense category. #135 is a beautiful shimmery plum/pink which accentuates my copper-brown skin perfectly. LOVE IT! #175 is a beautiful red/pink/coral (pink salmon) shade which just brightens the complexion and is the perfect red for summer!
wow... i used to consider myself a MAC devotee ... but i probably will never purchase another MAC lipstick. everything about these chanel rouge allures is sheer beauty, sophistication, femininity and perfection. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and am currently eyeing one of their neutral/nude tones to make this a holy trinity purchase.

the good and the not so good.
The good is the color Subtile 211. On me it's a reddish/brown. Reminiscent of the 1990's colors I loved. No feathering and very minimal transfer.
The not so good: There is nothing vibrant, intense or luminous with the lipstick. No shine or satin feeling. Feels more like a matte and somewhat drying. The lipstick did settle into my lip lines. As the description states, "melt away" and that is exactly what it does, melts away with talking, eating or doing absolutely nothing. No way was this long lasting. Maybe a little more longevity than the Chanel Bloom lipsticks. I also tried color 198 Nuance which was more of a mauve brown on me. Returning Nuance and will stick with Subtile for now.

Passion it is
Being new to the Chanel line, I tried several reds - Passion, Pirate and Gabrielle. Very lux, smooth, effortless application, wore for several hours. Packaging is creatively fresh and elegant. Pirate is blue based, Gabrielle has a micro-shimmer which makes it stand out and a better choice for special occasions, and Passion appears more balanced in the blue/yellow, so a better every day look for this blonde/blue eyed gal. Kept Passion and I'll likely invest in other Chanel lipsticks.

The perfect red lipstick
I have been shopping around for THE perfect red lipstick and I finally found the one! I purchased the color "Pirate" and it's beautiful on. It goes well with my complexion (Asian skin- medium fair) and the color is intense, but not over powering. The lipstick glides on and it feels silky and soft. I paired the lipstick with the Le Crayon Levres lip liner (Rouge Profond) and it goes perfect together.

Love it!
I love CHANEL luminous lip color! The packaging makes you feel like a movie star. The formulation is very comfortable to wear. Now that I own this lipstick in Pimpante, a beautiful peachy-pink color, I find myself reaching for this everyday in favor of all my mac favorites. Try this you'll love it! Every woman deserves at least one Chanel lipstick in her life, right?!
