Review: Chanel's Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick in "Unique" {Review, Pictures, Swatches}


Chanel's Rouge Coco Shine Lipstick in "Unique"
Net Weight: 0.11 OZ
Company: Chanel
Where to buy: Chanel, Nordstrom's, Bloomindale's
Price: $28

Formula: The formula is definitely the most moisturizing and luxurious one out there. It provides a TON of shine so you do not even need lip gloss! It is VERY sheer though, so do not expect a ton of color. It can be looked as a negative or positive aspect. I really love the plum undertones within this red. Chanel has designed an awesome color. 
Packaging: Of course the Chanel packaging is luxurious and beautiful, so no complains! I am obsessed with the classic double "C," as well as beautiful casing. 
Longevity: This is the formulas downfall. Because of the sheerness, it has a tendency to fade after a short time. I find myself reapplying frequently, which is frustrating. Other than that, the lipstick is great.

Favorite NYX Blushes

NYX's Mosaic Powder Blush in "Love," NYX's Creme Blush in "Boho Chic" 

NYX is one of my favorite brands! One of my favorite products is their blushes. I love the formula of their cream blushes and mosaic powder blushes. I have had the most success with these two! If I had to have only two blushes, these would be the two best that would last me through the whole year. "Love" is a shimmery bronze coral coral that adds a beautiful sun-kissed glow to my face! You can achieve multiple looks because of the different sections throughout the whole compact. "Boho Chic" is a perfect classic pink that can be built up really well. I am in love with NYX's cream blush formula because of its blend-ability and pigmentation. This is one of my favorites! It applies beautifully with a stippling duo-fibre brush. Overall, I recommend these blushes to everyone and hope you have as much luck with them as I do! Thank you so much for reading and please follow!
