Chanel Rouge Coco: Ruban Rose, Organdi Rose, and Muse

This morning I picked up a few of the much-publicized Chanel Rouge Coco lipsticks at Nordstrom According to the sales associate the shade pictured on Chanel muse Vanessa Paradis below (Mademoiselle) was already sold out in that particular store.

This new formula replaces the old Hydrabase formula. The texture is great--lightweight, hydrating, but not sticky at all--it feels almost as if you're wearing lip balm. These have a pleasant rose scent to them, so if you are not a fan of scented lipsticks you might want to skip these--on the plus side, I did not detect any offensive fragrance taste. At $30 each they are a bit pricey, no doubt, but nevertheless a nice treat if your budget can handle it! Rouge Coco launched on Feb. 25th and there are currently 30 shades offered.

I chose 15 Ruban Rose (a light coral rose), 09 Organdi Rose (a cool-toned, medium rose) and 14 Muse (a medium plummy rose).
