Last Friday I did something spendy. On a trip to Boots which should have solely involved buying a mothers day present (not leaving it until last minute this year *applauds self* – sorry mum!), I may have wandered past the Chanel counter and given in to the little shopping devil on my shoulder. I came away with a certain foundation which has been doing the rounds on the interwebs again recently – no surprises there, I’m a sucker for a good review. But picking up my first ever Chanel lipstick purchase was a surprise for me.
Lot’s of you were surprised to hear I’d never purchased a Chanel lipstick before – this is for the following reasons:
1) They’re pricey
2) They’re pricey
3) They’re pricey
Okay, so those are all the same reason but £24 feeds me (being wheat free is expensive in Brighton) for a week or so and buys me a copy of Elle. But something came over me and I fell in love with the sheer pinky goodness of The Rouge Coco Shine in the shade Minute (90).
Despite my hesitation and concern for my bank balance, there are a lot of things I love about. First up, it’s everything I wish MAC’s Patisserie had been for me. This is that “my lips but better shade” where as patisserie lacked a little something that I can’t quite put my finger on. However both MAC’s Patisserie and Demure in the Revlon Colourbust Laquer Balm are both close dupes for this one.
It’s also one of those lipsticks that seem to hug your lips, never settling in the dry parts. You can even see how it coats and conceals a scab I have on my lip (so attractive, right?) and the sheer, glossy finish pulls everything together and makes any makeup look just look so… done? I loveee.
TLDR? How do I actually feel about this lipstick given the price? It’s ridiculous but… I’d do it all over again. There’s something about it that is just so perfect – obviously there are more affordable dupes for each shade – and I’m certainly not going to start doing a “gotta catch ’em all” kinda thing with them. But if you’re looking to treat yourself, the whole product is just perfect – colour, formula, finish, everything. The one thing I wish it had? Magnetic casing (like the Estee Lauder and Tom Ford lipsticks). Because there’s nothing more satisfying than “that click”.
This looks so pretty x

Looks good on you! Chanel lipstick are worth their price, trust me!

Ahh, as lovely as this looks, I think, personally, if I had £24, I'd probably add a bit more to it and go straight to the foundation/primer section. Sigh, priorities.
It's such a lovely shade!
I'm still trying to resist buying one, simply because *expensive*
looks really good on you! loved the look..!

I bought my first one not too long ago too in the shade Rendez-Vous which is so pretty! This one looks great on you!

I bought my first Chanel lipstick in duty free in America, and it's so fancy that I feel like a goddess every time I wear it, even though it was a few years ago and I probably didn't pick a shade that suited me perfectly!

I've never tried a Chanel lipstick either for the same pricey reasons as you but it does look dreamy… you my have influenced me to dig deep and splash out ha

I've recently just tried a chanel blusher and nail polish and love them both, I'm definitely going to have to try the lipsticks next!
Check out my beauty giveaway..

Haha, well eventhough it was a pricey lipstick it suits you brilliantly. I love the nude shine to your lips, gives you a very healthy lip-look.

I've never bought a high end lipstick, or anything from Chanel despite how gorgeous loads of their products are! Student problems… This colour looks fab on you 🙂

Such a beautiful shade! I've never tried any Chanel lipsticks but will definitely have to! LOVE! 🙂 X.

I have very few expensive make up items in my make up bag but sometimes it is just so nice to use something a little more luxorious on your face. This is a beautiful colour, I don't own any nude shades but this one is lovely and the gorgeous packaging is tempting me x
We're all allowed a splurge every once in a while! The color is really soft and pretty.

Ahh this sounds so luxurious! x

I've been looking at swatches for these Chanel lipsticks on Pinterest for a long time… they're so beautiful but it is hard to justify that price!

So pretty! Chanel lipsticks are definitely worth the price, their quality is flawless
It looks beautiful.
Shocking, but as a beauty obsessed blogger you would think I own a Chanel lipstick as well. But I don't. I want one, but I'm waiting until I find the perfect shade.

Such a great color, and it looks lovely on you! x / almeidas.se
Money well spent! 24,- is a lot but you clearly love it. Sometimes you've got to treat yourself 🙂

Very pretty and it's almost worth the price just for the pretty Chanel packaging

Oh wow I love it! It looks amazing with your skiing tone!
Have an amazing day 🙂
http://sheseeksvictoria.wordpress.com
wow, it looks so beautiful on you, I agree, they are pricey, but totally worth buying!
I also purchased my first a couple of weeks back, and the formula, oh wow… Definitely feeling picking up a shade for summer!
http://whaticallbeautiful.blogspot.co.uk
They are pricey but incredibly lovely. I think with lipsticks its can be justified as lips are an area that a lot of people would look at. Now if we are talking about something like the hourglass powders, that's freaking expensive for something that no one will really notice.
They are pricey but their packaging and shade range is beautiful! Also it's like a precious little thing you carry around in your purse and you kind of "show off" every time you use it in public!

You should also have a look at the Rouge Allure ones, they definitely compete with Estee Lauder and Tom Ford in terms of packaging, in my opinion it's one of the nicest lipstick packaging around, and they are also much more pigmented than the Coco Shine ones.
Oh, and your eye make up is beautiful, your eyes really stand out in this photo, it suits you very well.

I held off buying a Rouge Coco Shine for a long time but I ended up buying Boy at the end of last year and I love it. I would love to get some more colours, Minute looks lovely on you!

Rouge Coco Shine is my everyday go to formula. Most of the lipsticks dry my lips out, but RCS works as a balm as well and hydrates. I love them! x
Gorgeous colour, I am so jealous! x
Maddy from UNSTITCHEDD
P.S. I don't want to be spammy, but I have a YSL Lipstick Giveaway on my blog at the moment!
I won't be going out in a rush to buy one of these, but that's mainly because I don't like shiny lipsticks. The colour and product looks gorgeous though!
http://thesimplewishlist.blogspot.com x
Congrats on the new purchase!
The Coco Shine in Boy is an amazing shade I highly recommend.
I agree though it would be nice if the had a magnetic closure.

Oh my goodness I would buy this simply for the classy packaging. GORGEOUS!
