Chanel Fall 2020 Lip Colours Review & Swatches
Flushed (132)
Chanel Flushed (132) Rouge Coco Flash Lip Colour ($38.00 for 0.1 oz.) is a soft, light-medium coral with moderate, warm undertones and fine pink and gold pearl that gave it a luminous shine. It had medium color coverage in a single layer, though marketed as “intensely pigmented,” and had moderate slip, though it was lightweight and did not seem overly slippery during wear.
Despite the shimmer and sheerness, it did not call attention to any texture imperfections. The color lasted well for three and a half hours and felt moisturizing while worn.

Attraction (494)
Chanel Attraction (494) Rouge Coco Lipstick (2015) ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.)is a muted, medium-dark burgundy with strong, warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had some shine with what seemed to be very, very fine pearl at times. The consistency was lightweight, thin but not clingy, and had moderate slip, which ensured the lipstick applied smoothly and did not pull on my lips during application.
It had good pigmentation in a single layer, and while it went on fairly evenly, there was a bit of unevenness along the center area of my lips. It wore well for five hours and felt hydrating over time.

Formula Overview
$37.00/0.12 oz. - $308.33 Per Ounce
The Rouge Coco formula is supposed to have "full coverage with a creamy yet lightweight finish" that is also hydrating. The coverage was semi-sheer to semi-opaque with the occasional shade being closer to full coverage, but it would not be a formula I'd recommend to someone looking for truly opaque pigmentation out of their lip color. Where the formula excels is in the more luminous finish--a soft sheen without the slipperiness of a gloss--that often is forgiving on the lips. The texture is lightweight, smooth, and comfortable to wear and to apply. The formula ranged from lightly hydrating to lightly drying with most somewhere between non-drying and lightly hydrating. The lipstick lasted two to four hours on me but reapplies well. They have a rosy scent but no discernible taste.

I really like Attraction – that beautiful wine rich burgundy shade. Very autumnal.
