Chanel Calypso Glossimer
Chanel Calypso Glossimer
Chanel Calypso Glossimer ($29.50 for 0.19 oz.) is a medium-dark burnt tangerine with soft gold shimmer. MAC Caqui is a bit redder and much more opaque, so it also looks more intense. MAC Knockout is darker, more vibrant, and redder. MAC Dare to Wear is more shimmery and a little lighter. Lancome Cherrywood Luxe is redder.
Calypso is semi-opaque and applies fairly evenly without settling into lip lines too noticeably. It has a healthy glossy shine, and it wears for four and a half hours. Chanel’s signature gloss formula is supposed to deliver shimmer and “high-shine glow” with shades that range from “sheer and natural” to “sparkling and rich.” The formula is supposed to be both comfortable and long-wearing. The formula is moderately hydrating, and the texture isn’t too thin or too thick, lightweight, and comfortable to wear.
Calypso
LELimited Edition. $30.00.

Wow, the whole color scheme you have there is wonderful. From the eyes to the lips to the t-shirt to the earrings, everything works so well together! 🙂
love this i normally cannot wear orange but this i can. Looks beautiful on you. will you be reviewing the brozner sable beige as well I would love to here what you think of this one!
This is a beautiful shade. Much nicer than the last glossimer you reviewed.
I love how bright and pretty this is!
very well put together 🙂 you look lovely x
Finally a Glossimer that I like!!yay!
Beautiful!! I tried this on at the counter on my hand, but was scared to put it on my face due to it orange brightness. Then I tried it on my lips paired with the Sable beige bronzer,New Sable eyeshadow duo, and new brown eyeliner… Wow! Calypso really brightened my complexion and complemented the look! I think everyone would enjoy it this summer.:-)
Hi Christine, does this compare to Nars Wonder lipgloss from last summer? It looks similar from your swatch
@shadowy lady NARS wonder is redder 🙂 http://www.temptalia.com/nars-wonder-lipgloss-review-photos-swatches
This looks gorgeous on you! Mine should arrive tomorrow and I can’t wait to see how it looks on my skin tone in comparison. It’s always fun to see how lip products look so different on us yet you never stop causing me lemmings! LOL
<3
Christine, i think this is one of my absolute favorite looks you’ve did. The eye makeup is perfect, and the gloss looks great on you. Tempted to get it. 😡 but 30$ for a lip gloss seems so expensive. x__X
Oh, I’m really loving the color combination/whole ensemble you’ve got going on in this review. You look so fresh, and ready for summer 🙂
Ooooh, I’m going to have to check out this lipgloss.
Sidenote: Christine, LOVE the earrings! I’m going to have to attempt to recreate this look.
stunning!
Is this color similar to MAC’s Geo Pink?
Geo Pink is redder
I love the eye look that you did with this color. Its so pretty and summery! And ontop of it I love your earrings 😀
So pretty, I just never wear orange because it makes my teeth look yellow
how does this compare to bobbi brown citrus l/g?
Citrus has very little color, so they’re not comparable!
Hi Christine!
Thanks so much for your reviews! How does Riviera compare to Chanel calypso or Dior Orange Pareo? 🙂
@Bani Riviera is much more intense and opaque. I don’t think I have Orange Pareo!
@Christine (Temptalia)
Thank you! 🙂
I don’t know if you read old comments, but how does this compare to Guerlain Terracotta gloss in “Mambo”, in your opinion? I just don’t know what I’ll do when I get through mine! 🙂
I don’t think I have Mambo!
