A lipstick is never innocent and is much more than just a beauty step.
Elegant or provocative, lips dress up to reveal their intentions, marking a presence, a difference and an attitude. Intense and radical, each ROUGE ALLURE shade sparks the imagination, expressing the personalities of all women.
Like a prelude to the rush of colour, the object itself is a true statement. A real jewel in its contemporary case with pure lines, it delivers the sensation of authentic luxury. Press once and it reveals itself in just one click, reinventing seduction in an exquisitely feminine step.
In 2012, ROUGE ALLURE explores a new range of colours that are more intense than ever before. To give colour all of its power, the formula evolves, while maintaining comfort and gentleness. It is designed to enhance colour with the help of highly concentrated extremely fine pigments. And because colour dazzles even more on supple, protected lips, the formula is enriched with moisturising and antioxidant agents, such as sweet almond oil, sappan wood and green tea.
RED IS A STYLE
The style of CHANEL can be traced in black and white. Free and unpredictable, red enriches its palette, setting off elegant ensembles with a note of boldness and impertinence.
For Gabrielle Chanel red is more than a colour, it is an attitude and a sign of distinction. Paradoxical and intriguing, but never innocent, red shimmers and makes a statement. On lips, it combines strength, femininity and allure.
The new ROUGE ALLURE collection puts red in the spotlight to match every style.
