Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet- 57 Rouge Feu

Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet- 57 Rouge Feu/$37

On the nails: Chanel Le Vernis- 530 Rouge Radical  

Hi there! I hope you had a good hump day.

Rouge Feu was the second product I chose from Chanel’s Le Rouge Collection Nº1. I was having a matchy-matchy moment and I thought Rouge Feu was the closest match to my Rouge Radical manicure. 

The Allure Velvet lipsticks are described as non-drying mattes. I think that description is spot on for the ones that I’ve tried to date. 

Rouge Feu is a pigmented red that I think would look good on many different skin tones. On me I think it leans a bit toward orange which I like because I don’t have a lot of those types of reds in my collection. There’s no scent that I can detect during application, and it stays put for me until I take it off to eat. Because it is a matte I would recommend a good lip exfoliation before applying. No, I did not do that in the picture above, so basically do as I say not what I did.  I think Chanel did a great job with this collection. I have my eye on the Rouge Audace Allure Velvet lipstick next. I’ll keep you posted.

    I tend to stay way from lippies with orange tint; I believe it does not work for my skin tone. I like the deep reds with a hint of blue now and then. This shade works well for you.That is hilarious with the background pictures but I hear you…:-)

      Thank you Beauty. I would give orange tinted lippies another try. I think they would look nice on you as well.
