Now that’s what I’m talking about.
Red.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve got nothing but love for sheer lips, but sometimes red really hits the spot. Especially on a Wednesday, ya know? I can’t think of a better day to wear red lips. 🙂
These reds are from the new Chanel Summer 2015 Collection and are available now at Chanel counters and online.
A quick break-break-down…
Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Lip Colour in Arthur ($36) — A re-promote in the permanent line, Arthur is a warm, full-coverage, slightly orangey red with a creamy finish that feels a little thick on my lips, but it’s still very comfortable, smooove, non-streaky and pretty moisturizing. It also has Chanel’s lovely light rose flavor and scent.
Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Rose Paradis ($30) — Also a re-promote from the permanent line, Rose Paradis is a rosy pink with subtle shimmer and a medium-weight, non-sticky formula with coverage just shy of full. And yup, that signature light rose flavor and scent.
Chanel Levres Scintillantes Glossimer in Allegria ($30) — Limited edition Allegria is a warm, intense full-coverage creamy red with the same Glossimer texture/flavor/scent as Rose Paradis.
Chanel. Summer. Ah… 🙂
Speaking of summer and good things, your nephew and I just had a wonderful dinner outside on the deck. I nibbled on a zucchini noodle dish with lemon pepper shrimp (SO easy to make! Let me know if you want the recipe.) and sipped a yummy white wine (TJ’s Santa Barbara Landing 2013 Riesling. $4.99! So good!) while his tabby royal highness tried to jump up on the table.
Now I’m back inside, but he’s still out on patrol in the Tabby Command Center.
Whatever you’re up to, I hope you’re having a nice night.
Maybe my eyes are still misty from Hawkeye’s musical debut on Jimmy Fallon but those look really similar!
OMG that song though. He’s the best.
I like Rose Paradis, beautiful color. Good to know it’s part of the permanent range, I can put it on the non-emergency wish list!
New Chanel collections kill me… in the best way possible. These lip products are gorgeous but the Stylo Eyeshadows have my attention on a whole other level <3
You always look great in a red lip, so I like all three on you!
I’m not brave enough to wear a lipstick this bold, but the colours look stunning. I’d love to get the recipe though. It sounds so lovely.

Hi Anne,
Here’s a link to the recipe. It’s delicious and comes together very quickly. I cheated a little by using pre-cooked frozen shrimp:

It pairs really well with a cold glass of white wine!
Thank you so much :-)!
Rose Paradis- yes please!! It’s beautiful and I love pink toned reds!
I like the shade “Arthur.” So pretty! I haven’t worn a red lip in so long- dunno why, as they’re my favorite!
I like “Arthur”
Love that glossy red lip, Chanel always makes such fabulous looks, I love it!
That was my first though when I saw that lovely striking red lipstick photo ~ Chanel. Summer. Ah… 🙂
Monica.
Meow!! These look so lovely on you! Xoxo.
Arthur is definitely all that! wow Have you ever smelled the Lipstick Rose perfume from Frederick Malle? It smells like Chanel lippies, lovely
Thank goodness these are all red (says my wallet) because remember when I really, really, really wanted that Chanel Glossimer in Daydream and didn’t get it and then regretted it for years? I know, how could you forget when I’m still going on about it? I don’t think I could add another loved-and-lost Glossimer to that list, in good conscience. 😉 I can easily fall in love with the look of reds, just not on me!
Rose Paradis is gorgeous!
Gah those glosses are gorgeous! I don’t even like glossy red lips and I’m considering them lol. You make them look so good!
I have been trying to make more use out of my red lipstick collection recently and am really on a roll wearing reds. So much that I am tempted to go get some more, which would go against me trying to use some products up… Ah, the struggle is real!
