Beauty Product Review: Chanel Rouge Coco

September 25, 2013

We may not all be able to own a classic Chanel jacket or purse any time soon, but we can still own a little piece of Chanel.

The Chanel counter at the airport is for some reason the most tempting counter and I always try to stop by and try on a few shades of lipstick or shop for new nail polish colors. Though the cosmetics are still pricier than any drugstore variety, they are available in a range of shades and their lipsticks and foundations are well formulated.  I knew I wanted to test out Chanel lip color and I am glad I did (I’m wearing Gabrielle, no. 19).

The color payoff and pigmentation is great so the color lasts for a while.  I now know though that my lips do not look good if they are dry or cracked before I put on Rogue Coco.  I would still buy this lipstick again – luxury can be attainable and look pretty fierce!

Chanel Rouge Coco

Recommend

– Yes, with limited reservations! The colors are incredible and longer lasting than other brands I’ve tried but can make dry lips peel (but I feel like this may be true of a few lipsticks)

Pros

– Nice range of beautiful colors

Cons

– If your lips are at all chapped prior to applying lipstick, they will start peeling after applying lipstick

Price

– $34 (less after promotions or at the airport!) The one (Sari Dore) below is the cheapest one I found online!

    That shade of red is lovely on you! I’ve only tried the Chanel Rouge Allure which I adore and had no dryness issues with. I’ll have to check out the color range of the Rouge Coco.

      Rouge Allure sounds great too! I do like how Chanel lipsticks tend to be great at moisturizing lips. Check out Rouge Coco as well and thank you for your sweet comments!

    If I knew I would have the courage to actually wear it, I would go out right now and buy myself that marvel!
    With love,

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living September 25, 2013 at 21:34

      Yes, Duty Free is such a dangerous place for makeup shopping right?

    I hate it when I put on a lip color and my lips start to peel. what could be more gross? Lately i’ve been looking into glosses with more staying power to help remedy this issue.

    • Chic 'n Cheap Living September 26, 2013 at 00:01

      Lydia, this has definitely made me realize that prepping the lips is key prior to putting on a bold color. I find Rouge Coco moisturizing, perhaps almost too much so! I have started doing lip scrubs before putting on lipstick now and that definitely works!
