Chanel Rouge Allure Camélia

Chanel’s iconic camellia flower has adorned everything from fine jewelry to haute couture, and this Spring 2020, it will feature on a limited edition collection of Chanel Rouge Allure Camelia lipsticks.

Chanel Rouge Allure Camelia is a limited edition collection of 4 luminous Rouge Allure lipsticks and 4 vivid Rouge Allure Velvet lipsticks.  Each of them come with the camellia motif embossed on the tip of the gold click case.  Even the external carton packaging is differentiated with the camellia embossing.

The most interesting and perhaps most highly sought after in Asia is the Chanel Rouge Allure Camelia Blanc (327) which is really a lip balm.  It glides over the lips and provides a nice light moisturising treatment without leaving any residue on the lips.  I find it most useful for prepping the lips before makeup, and is super chic for carrying around in the purse for mid-day hydration.  Of course, at SGD54 each, this is truly one of the most luxuriously priced lip balms around!

Of the other 7 shades, I have 3 here to show you:

• Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Camelia Rouge (357) is a warm-toned chilli red
• Chanel Rouge Allure Camelia Rouge Metal (607) is a cool-toned metallic red with a berry-tinged pull and purple micro shimmers
• Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Camelia Carmin (627) is a neutral-toned deep wine red

And here is how the various shades look on my lips in a full makeup look:

There are lots more to discover, all of them covetable for the camellia embossing of course.  After all, a girl can never have enough red lipsticks, am I right?  Have you picked up any of these?  And what do you think of a luxury lip balm in the form of Camelia Blanc?
