Lipstick of the Day: Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur

I have quite a lot of lipstick samples lying around, and since I don't really go out/use makeup much on a regular basis, I doubt ever if I would ever finish these off or buy full-size versions of any of them.  Some of these lipsticks I actually like a lot, so I figured I will just post a color every day and at least use them up that way.  The first lipstick I am posting is the Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur.  I have tried a lot of Chanel products, but for some reason, I never bothered buying the Rouge Coco Shines.  I always felt something that sheer would never show up on my lips.  Chanel's Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur is one color that does show up.  It is a a deep, dark berry shade with silver shimmer in it and quite dark but sheers out nicely into a lovely berry-pink shade on my lips.

Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur - Swatch:  The silver shimmer is more prominent in the actual lipstick than on the swatch where it just sheers out to a beautiful wearable berry shade (the two arrows in the photo are the small samplers of the lipstick, so you know how scary dark it would look in the tube).

The lipstick is quite balmy and sheer yet has enough pigmentation to actually show up quite well on my lips.  The downside to being so moisturizing - it doesn't last very long and disappears in about an hour or two leaving behind the silver shimmer.  I would definitely recommend Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in Bonheur to anyone looking for an easy-to-use moisturizing lipstick, though I still haven't gotten around to buying one for myself :P

  2. You have so many Coco Shines...maybe you should give them to me if you don't like them :D :D :D Maybe I will check out Bonheur soon, looks lovely on you. I tried Boy when it was launched but it lasted just about an hour on me :( :(
