Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Color La Ravissante Review, FOTD

Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Color 32 La Ravissante is a peachy coral color. It has super fine golden shimmers, which are not very obvious. They just add a hint of sheen to the color. Although the texture, the staying power, the feel, the comfort, and the texture are exactly the same as the Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Lip Color La Fascinate. (Detailed review HERE) The pigmentation is not as great as the red lipstick of the same range. I have to go over a few swipes of La Ravissante to bring out the true color on my lips and also get that full coverage. It stays almost 6 hours on my lips and after 3-4 hours it starts looking like a stain. The stain looks pale peachy kinda color and it kinda washes out the color from my face.

The original packaging is exact same as the Rouge Allure lipsticks :

Price : Rs 2,000

The 4 shades in the sample lip palette are :

  • 38 La Fascinate : A deep neutral toned red
  • 37 L’Exuberante- : A hot fuchsia pink
  • 34: L raffinee: Mauve pink
  • 32 La Ravissante : Orangey peach

I like to pair it with a bright orangey or a peach blush so that y face does not look completely pale once the lip color sort of fades out. However , the best thing is that the color fades evenly and does not look patchy.

I see this shade working on light skin tones more than medium or dusky ones.

Swatch (2 swipes of the color):

Shai October 4, 2011 at 12:55 pm

This is sooo gorgeous too..looks more peachy in the swatch, more pink on your lips. love!

Reply

Rati October 4, 2011 at 3:18 pm

it’s more towards peachy only. :)

Reply

Ramya October 4, 2011 at 3:25 pm

Rati I liked the red better on u :)
This looks cute too, but I can imagine that it’ll wash the color from ur face when it fades..
I also wanted to ask u what eye makeup to do with red lips ?:)

Reply

Rati October 4, 2011 at 3:44 pm

I mostly keep my eye makeup very simple with red lips, ramya. Either it’s just the eye liner opper lash line and nothing on waterline. In las fascinate, I applied a wash of shimmery light browns all over the lid, lined my eyes with black gel liner, kohl on waterline and mascara.

depends on what kind of look you like on yourself. Bt I’d say keep the eye makeup simple since red lips color speaks a lot for itself. :)
