CHANEL Rouge Allure Velvet
Youโve probably heard of โThe Lipstick Indexโ. The thinking is: when times are tough, lipstick sales soar โ because lipsticks are an easy win, when it comes to mood-lifting: very cheering, and not bank-breaking.
And if youโre feeling in the mood for one of those quick fixes, we point you in the direction of CHANEL Rouge Allure Velvet, newly reformulated with an even higher concentrating of pigments and a light-reflecting, lip-conditioning, all-day-hydrating finish. (Nourishing castor oil and shea butter now feature.)
Nobodyโs pretending that at ยฃ35, these are pocket-money-priced lipsticks. But youโve got that amazing, almost James Bond-y Rouge Allure packaging, and a choice of 20 satiny shades of fabulousness, spanning soft neutrals to deep โrouge-noirโ burgundy, via show-stopping reds. CHANEL describe the finish as โequal parts matte and luminousโ โ and weโre quoting them directly, because frankly? Couldnโt put it better ourselves.
Gabrielle Chanel herself nailed it, actually, when she said: โIf youโre sad or heartbroken, make yourself up, dress up, add more lipstick and attack.โ
Now THATโs wisdomโฆ
