Experimental

Chanel Experimental Rouge Coco Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, medium coral-red with warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that covered the lips evenly with thin, lightweight color that was comfortable to wear and easy to apply. The lipstick was smooth, creamy without being slippery, and lasted for four hours on me. It left a very faint stain behind and was lightly hydrating.

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.

Ingredients

Daylight

Chanel Daylight Rouge Coco Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a light-medium, peachy beige with warmer undertones and a natural sheen. The consistency had some slip to it, which gave it a glossier finish compared to some of the other shades in the Rouge Coco range have had. While it glided across the lips easily, the color pooled in my lip lines noticeably and beyond just the deeper lines. It had semi-opaque pigmentation that did not appear streaky, which was a plus and noteworthy for this type of color (with this finish). On me, it lasted for two and a half hours and was lightly moisturizing over time.
