For more fun with Chanel Rouge Coco ($30 each; avail. Feb. 25)…
Just a quick heads up for my Chanel fiends and lip lovahs! 🙂 Brace those lurvely lips for Coco’s upcoming Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour line of hydrating lipsticks.
Okay, are your lips sufficiently braced?
These couple pics from the European print ad campaign show it in action on French actress/singer Vanessa Paradis, aka Johnny Depp’s baby mama.
OOH! Don’t the colors look rich?
More deets…
- Based on a lipstick design dating back to 1952… The team responsible for the new line tried to create lipsticks that Coco would’ve worn herself
- Each lippie’s named after an influential period in Coco’s life, with names like Camelia (a deep rose), Mademoiselle (a soft pink) and Paris (a bright red)
- The line will feature 30 different shades across four color families: roses-pink (nine shades), reds-corals (eight shades), violets-berries (four shades) and neturals-brown (nine shades)
- Rouge Coco will replace the existing Rouge Hydrabase line
- The formula includes a compound Chanel calls “Hydratendre Complex” to sooth and soften lips
Peep the Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour line at Saks Fifth Avenue, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s stores, as well as Chanel.com, this March.
I’m counting down the days! 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. Yet another French beauty tidbit: Kerastase Paris is launching a new line of hair products on January 19 called Age Premium, a four-piece collection of shampoos, conditioners and treatments to address hair probs like thinning, dry scalp and uneven texture. I have some crispy-noodle white hairs (so NOT cute) buried up in my mane that are eager to give the new products a try…
Look for ’em at salons and Kerastase.com.
Tavia says
From those 30 colors I must find a favorite, even though I’m a true fan of the lipgloss 🙂

Lipgloss seems to have dominated for the past 10 or so years. I love gloss, but I’m also excited about lipstick making a comeback!
Marina says
I can’t wait to get those lipsticks , too. Some of my friends already have tried it , I am so jealous

Oh nice. Did they like ’em?
Vanessa H says
I looooove the Chanel packaging, but I’ve only ever bought a nailpolish from them. What are the lipstick textures like?

Karen says
Love ’em, especially the Rouge Allures (thin, non-sticky and very moisturizing with lots of shine).
Can’t wait to try these new ones!
Alison says
I didn’t know these were replacing the Hydrabases, I like them but these look lovely I will have to try. My fave Chanel lippies have to be the Rouge Allures, they have the best, most moisturising formula I have ever tried. Most lipsticks dry out my lips but these are like using a lipbalm. The only problem is they don’t last as long as the hydrabases so I am interested to see if the Rouge Coco’s blend the staying power of the Hydrabases with the moisture of the Allures. Can’t wait to see swatches of these, Vanessa Paradis is one lucky lady, all the Chanel she wants and Johnny Depp! Some people have all the luck! I would like to be in her shoes even just for 24hrs!
Karen says
I was thinking the same thing about Vanessa. Lucky girl!
BTW, I love the Rouge Allures, too. Super moisturizing!
Karen B says
I will be needing the Mademoiselle one, if only to have it complement my signature Coco Mademoiselle fragrance 🙂
Deconstruction says
I use my Chanel lipstick every day! I cannot wait to hit up a counter to try this out.

lexi says
I can’t wait to peep these out…also I tend to obsess over everything French – I’m a pretty big Francophile! =)
Also, Vanessa dated Lenny Kravitz in the day…lucky girl indeed!
Rebecca says
I don’t really wear lipstick much, but I must say I’m excited for these! Vanessa Paradis looks lovely in the promo pics and I adore the pink lipstick she’s wearing in the top picture.

Lindsey says
The new line sounds gorgeous but I can’t believe it’s replacing the Hydrabases completely! I hope they live up to the standard or a lot of women are going to be very unhappy 🙂

Vanessa looks gorgeous in those pictures? Any idea what lipstick color she is wearing in the very first picture? Thanks for sharing, Karen!
NINA says
Im getting very excited about the Kerastase stuff. Maybe my newly cut hair deserves a treat. :d
Michele DiCola says
Bring them on!

Samantha says
The color that Vaness is wearing is madamemoiselle #5, with pink sugar liner, but try it with carmin,or griotte, it becomes a bit brighter, and the texture is amazing, for those of you who are a bit more adventurous, try teheran #56, a beautiful pinky apricot.
Michelle says
I am also wondering what color Vanessa is wearing.
I have read every post I could find with no luck.
Karen says
It’s Mademoiselle!
