Chanel Reflexion (71) Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss ($32.00 for 0.24 fl. oz.) is a strawberry pink-red with soft pink and gold micro-shimmer and warm undertones. MAC Drawn in Chic (LE, $15.00) is less shimmery. Chanel Friandise (82) (LE, $27.00) is sheerer, less pink. MAC Fever Isle (LE, $20.00) is less shimmery. Revlon Papaya (P, $7.49) is less shimmery. Revlon Strawberry (P, $7.49) is similar–a little less shimmery. Burberry Cameo Pink (P, $27.00) is lighter. See comparison swatches.

It had nearly opaque color coverage applied to the lips, but there was just a hint of translucency so if you have naturally redder lips, they may bring out the red tones in this shade. The consistency is gel-like, lightly tacky, but smooth and comfortable to wear. It wore well for five hours, and it was hydrating while worn. I can see this shade being particular popular come spring and summer.

Christine, i have to tell you- you look FANTASTIC here and this particular lip gloss suits you so much!!! But, like you said, i agree that this would be better for the summer, so i’ll probably wait until then to pick it up. I also have a feeling i probably have a dupe of it this already so i can’t justify buying it now:S

I wore this shade to a friend’s wedding last weekend and kept having to get it out of my purse to show inquiring ladies what it was; (I am much paler, so on me its a touch less summery) just a perfect shimmery pink, not too over the top but definitely some pop!

This is a beautiful color on you! I need this gloss. The application looks flawess. Chanel just set the gloss standard to a higher level with this one.

So pretty here Lady!★

I’ve been meaning to tell you – I love the extra price and le/p info you now add to each dupe; I hope it’s not too much extra work for you. The website is getting better and better! Good job and thanks Christine!
