Pucker Up! | Chanel Rouge Allure Gloss.

And we're down to the last Monday of the month!
The month of April sure went by fast, considering that we're mostly stuck at home, staying indoors, and avoiding the scorching heat as much as possible. In a few days, we'll be flying to somewhere more temperate (take a guess where, haha) and I can't wait to feel that blustery spring breeze once again!

I've actually began packing over the weekend - most of our clothes and toiletries are already inside the luggage bags, our medicine kit is good to go, even my vanity is ready and packed with the usual makeup items that I bring whenever I go on a trip. This includes the Chanel Rouge Allure Gloss, which I know for sure will not budge during my four-hour flight.

Chanel Rouge Allure Gloss.

Chanel describes this as a 'colour and shine lip gloss in one click'.

Brief product description in different languages.

This was bought in Korea. I actually received this as a gift from my Korean unni.

For starters, can I just say that this product's packaging is absolutely gorgeous? The box alone exudes elegance with the gold lettering and gold side panels, while the black lacquered tube is nothing short of chic.

The tube's sleek and modern packaging comes with a unique 'one-click' feature. Simply click the top portion (the one with the Chanel logo) by pushing it down, and it springs back up to reveal what is actually the base of the lip gloss wand.

'Push to click'.

It comes with a beveled, double-sided, flocked applicator which allows easy, breezy application and precise definition.

It looks like a paddle from this angle.

From another angle, you can see the applicator's sloping edge.

The lip gloss has a rich, somewhat creamy texture which glides on smoothly when applied. Its consistency is rather thick but not goopy, slightly sticky - yes, but does not feel heavy on the lips. It has a semi-opaque formula with gorgeous and intense color pay-off.

Chanel Rouge Allure Gloss comes in ten different shades, and this one is #17 Supreme. It's a bright fuchsia pink with a sophisticated, glassy finish.

I absolutely love how crazy pigmented this lip gloss is! Add to the fact that it's hydrating and very comfortable to wear. Best of all, it stays put on my lips for almost seven hours. I've had my morning coffee, several glasses of water, plus my afternoon tea, and the color is still there! Seven freaking hours. For a lip gloss. How amazing is that?!

The Chanel Rouge Allure Gloss retails for $37 (around Php 1800), but I got mine as a gift last Christmas. I won't usually spend that much for a lip gloss, but I guess it's okay to splurge on something like this every once in awhile. On that note, somebody stop me from buying another shade of this lip gloss! Haha!
