Rouge Delicieux (807)

Chanel Rouge Delicieux (807) Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip Colour ($45.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a muted, medium-dark pink with warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had nearly opaque pigmentation in a single layer, which applied evenly and smoothly across my lips without tugging. The texture was very lightweight and looked more emollient and shiny than you’d expect based on the feel of it–more velvety without the true slip of a cream finish. It wore well for five hours and was hydrating over time.

Formula Overview

$45.00/0.12 oz. - $375.00 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "satin finish" with "ultra-thin pigments" that yield "full coverage" while also having a moisturizing base. Most shades in the range have a satin to luminous finish--not glossy but they have a luminosity to them that gives the appearance of lighter-weight color and smoother, fuller lips that a true satin finish doesn't have (in my experience).

The texture has a more velvety feel--smooth with great glide but not a lot of wetness, so they go on comfortably but feel very lightweight and thin but don't emphasize lip lines/lip texture. The coverage tends to be more semi-opaque to opaque, so they aren't always living up to the "full coverage" claim.

Most shades wear four hours or longer with some of the deeper and richer hues lasting six hours or more, and the formula has been hydrating for me. They have a subtle, floral scent but no discernible taste.

Rouge Splendide (817)

Chanel Rouge Splendide (817) Rouge Allure Luminous Intense Lip Colour ($45.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a bright, medium-dark pink-coral with subtle, warm undertones and a natural sheen. It had nearly opaque color payoff that applied evenly in a single, fluid stroke where the color spread and distributed well across my lips. There was a smidgen of product that sank into my deeper lip lines but it wasn’t enough to be noticeable in person, just in the close-up photos. The consistency was lightweight, thin without being clingy, and comfortable to wear. It stayed on nicely for four and a half hours and felt moisturizing while worn,
