Chanel Rouge Ingenue & Rouge Tentation Rouge Allure Lip Colours

Chanel Rouge Ingenue (168) Rouge Allure Lipstick

Chanel Rouge Ingenue (168) Rouge Allure Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a medium, beige-brown with subtle, warm undertones and a soft, luminous finish with a very fine pearl sheen. It had good color coverage, though the natural lip color will still peek through (so it’s not the full coverage promised). The color went on evenly but had a tendency to pull into some of my lip lines over time. The texture was thin, creamy, and comfortable to wear over a three hour period. MAC Highlights (P, $17.00) is lighter, cooler (90% similar). Tom Ford Beauty Scandola (LE, $55.00) is more shimmery (90% similar). Bite Beauty Café (LE, $24.00) is cooler (90% similar). MAC Real Redhead (LE, $17.00) is warmer (90% similar). MAC Pure Vanity (LE, $17.00) is lighter (90% similar). YSL Le Nu (70) (P, $36.00) is darker (80% similar). MAC Razzledazzler (P, $17.00) is darker, warmer (80% similar). See comparison swatches / view dupes side-by-side.

Chanel Rouge Tentation (169) Rouge Allure Lipstick ($37.00 for 0.12 oz.) is a deep red with cool, blue undertones and a natural sheen from fine pearl. It was just shy of having opaque color payoff, which distributed smoothly and evenly. The lipstick felt lightly creamy going on, but it wasn’t heavy or too thin, which made my lips appear smoother, and it was comfortable to wear. I liked that it adhered well so that I didn’t have any issues with the color migrating outside my lips. On me, the color was still going strong after six hours of wear and was nicely hydrating while worn. Bite Beauty Tannin (P, $26.00) is cooler (95% similar).
