Rocking the Rouge Coco

We’re all about the beauty in this world caused by Coco Chanel – the person and the fashion house she left behind. If anyone takes the art of beauty seriously, it is this chic powerhouse that isn’t just a pioneer in the world of fashion, but also a jewel to be admired in the cosmetic world. With new cosmetic collections that are soon to be launched, we decided to give you the low-down on what to expect – and what to look forward to this season – when it comes to some things Coco. In this beauty game, there’s only one rule: be daring! Thankfully, Chanel makes it so easy.

Although we can expect some new perfume and skin care products from Chanel this March, we’ve decided to hone in on the Rouge Coco lipstick series that will be sure to turn many heads. Championed by none other than Lily-Rose Depp, this range comes in 18 shades that bring a new definition to colour.

ALL ABOUT ROUGE COCO

Rouge Coco is Chanel’s new lipstick series that comes in all colours and textures, with a clear motto: Freedom. Creativity. Personality. It’s a line that encourages spontaneity through colours and it allows its wearer to write her – or his ­­– own rules. Did you ever think your lipstick could tell your story, or paint a picture of the inner-Goddess that resides within you? These colours, from subtle to daring, aim to do just that.

Perfectly balanced, the Rouge Coco shades are perfectly desirable and never intimidating. The varied textures ensure ad lib application and allow you to go with whatever feels right.

The 18 shades were dreamed up by Lucia Pica and will brighten up any dull day. There are five types of lipsticks you’ll find: Rouge Coco Lip Blush; Rouge Coco; Rouge Coco Shine; Rouge Coco Stylo and Rouge Coco Gloss.

ROUGE COCO LIP BLUSH – A luminous and high definition burst of colour (1,350 Baht)

Here’s a palette designed for a woman – or man – who likes to keep it matte without suffering from the heaviness and stickiness you’ll often find with matte lipsticks. This ultimate addition to the Rouge Coco range is a new high definition burst of colour that provides hydration for the lips AND cheeks. You read that right.

As a 2-in-1 texture, the soft and silky gel formula melts onto lips and cheekbones to infuse them with a natural veil of pigment. It leaves a blush of colour so fine, soft and supple that you’ll forget you’re wearing it. That is quite the luxury as we all know how annoying a heavy lipstick can be.

The signature lippie’s Hydraboost complex ensures a light and comfortable texture. It is composed of vegetable oils – comprised of jojoba, mimosa, sunflower – to moisturise and nourish the skin, an emollient coconut derivative to soften the lips and improve comfort, and a trace of peptide for a plumping effect. If lips could kill… in a good way. The lip blush comes in six shades to match every mood:

• Burning Berry: a chocolate purple
• Teasing Pink: an intense pink touched with fuchsia
• Tender Rose: a universal rosy nude
• Orange Explosif: a radiant and vibrant orange
• Corail Naturel: a peachy pink

ROUGE COCO LIPSTICK – A classic with new pinks (1,450 Baht)

This iconic lipstick offers a comfortable formula infused with the Hydraboost complex and a new series of ultra-desirable pinks. They are:

• Rouge Intimiste: a raspberry red
• Rouge Malicieux: an intense, luminous pink
• Corail Vibrant: a bright, vivid pink

ROUGE COCO SHINE ­– The wet effect (1,450 Baht)

• Rouge Irrésistible: an impertinent raspberry
• Rose Émotif: a bluish pink
• Poppy Orange: a bright, radiant orange

ROUGE COCO STYLO – A new way of drawing attention (1,450 Baht)

• Rose Mutin: a sorbet pink

ROUGE COCO GLOSS – Plump and vibrant lips (1,350 Baht)
