Chanel Corail Sanguin & Rouge Amoureux Rouge Allure L'Extrait Lip Colours Reviews & Swatches

Corail Sanguin (848)

Chanel Corail Sanguin (848) Rouge Allure L’Extrait Lip Colour ($55.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a medium orange with moderate, warm red undertones and fine golden pearl woven through a cream finish. It had semi-opaque, buildable pigmentation that adhered evenly to my lips and didn’t settle into my lip lines, though it had more slip and seemed a little more luminous (with less “cream” opacity) compared to most shades in the range. The color stayed on well for four and a half hours and felt hydrating over time.

Formula Overview

$55.00/0.07 oz. - $785.71 Per Ounce

The formula is supposed to have a "satin" finish with eight-hour wear (and 12 hours of hydration) and an "ultra-high concentration of pigments" and a "deeply moisturizing complex." The range was quite pigmented with most shades delivering fully opaque coverage in a single layer, though there were a few exceptions.

The consistency was smooth, creamy, and lightly emollient without too much slip, so it stayed in place without feathering on me, but it was a "thicker" and denser formula compared to most Chanel lip color formulas I have tried; this wasn't a good or bad thing, but it was a departure worth noting for those familiar with prior lipstick releases from the brand. I felt this thicker formula did help to soften my lip lines and yield a very flattering look on my lips, though.

Most shades lasted at least four hours with some shades lasting closer to six hours but eight hours of decent wear would have been a stretch. Eight hours with some remnants of color? Possibly with some of the bolder hues (e.g. a red). The formula was comfortable and hydrating to wear, and I definitely felt no need to hasten to get lip balm after one wore off.

The lipstick had a subtle, floral scent (I didn't notice it after I applied it, mostly in the tube) but no discernible taste.

Note: this is a refillable lipstick, so the price reflects the cost of the case and the lipstick shade (cases are not currently available on their own). Refills are $40 each at the time of publishing.

Rouge Amoureux (852)

Chanel Rouge Amoureux (852) Rouge Allure L’Extrait Lip Colour ($55.00 for 0.07 oz.) is a brighter, orange-coral with strong, warm undertones and a cream finish. It was richly pigmented in a single stroke with a creamy, smooth texture that was denser but not heavy to wear. The product applied evenly and seemed to smooth out most of my lip lines. It wore nicely for six hours and was moisturizing over time.
