Chanel Rouge Cosmique & Brun Solaire Rouge Allure Velvet La Cometes Reviews & Swatches
Rouge Cosmique (148)
Chanel Rouge Cosmique (148) Rouge Allure Velvet La Comete ($40.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a brighter, medium-dark cherry red with subtle, cool undertones and a satin finish with barely-there pearl. The lipstick had a lightweight, thinner feel that was more velvety in its glide than traditionally creamy, which helped it stay in place better.
It had opaque color coverage that applied evenly and wasn’t prone to emphasizing lip texture. It wore well for six hours and was moisturizing over time.

LELimited Edition. $40.00.
Brun Solaire (158)
Chanel Brun Solaire (158) Rouge Allure Velvet La Comete ($40.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium-dark, reddish-burgundy with subtle, warm undertones and a satin finish with faint micro-sparkle. It had nearly opaque color payoff in a single stroke, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips without dragging. The texture was lightweight, thin, and velvety, but it wasn’t clingy to wear. It stayed on nicely for six hours, left a faint stain behind, and was hydrating over time.

I love the warmer burgundy hue of Brun Solaire. But for autumn and winter more than spring. Oddly, in NJ, I wore colors like this year-round. Will probably still get this, as it is the perfect time of burgundy for me.
Brun Solaire is stunning – such a perfect autumn shade.
I like both a lot and have three, at least, dupes for Rouge Cosmetique and one for Brun Solaire.
Some day in the future I’m sure there will be a Chanel lipstick, but not right now. Must use up some of the dupes first. 🙂
