Don’t worry lovelies, you’re not having sight issues! In the picture above there are 3 times 5 lipsticks… Well, almost! These are all the lipsticks that I will definitely wear all Autumn long. But especially for you, I narrowed everything down to an Edit of 5 Shades that you have absolutely no excuse not to wear! A selection of everyday nudes and some gorgeous vampy, deep berries, dark chocolates and wine shades to go with any occasion.

Here you have THE MUSTs:

1. CHARLOTTE TILBURY MATTE Revolution Lipstick in Glastonberry – a gorgeous deep berry shade with an extremely comfortable formulation. I will recommend wearing this one with the lip liner Berry Naughty, again from Charlotte Tilbury. ( see full review and swatches here )
2. NARS Audacious Lipstick in Deborah – this is unlike any lipstick in my collection and a colour I would’ve sworn I’d never wear. Not the biggest fan of chocolate lipsticks, mainly because I lived through the ’90 and I saw so many browns worn so badly that it would be enough for me to go ewww! in front of any brown variation… But this one.. Oh, this NARS one is… Well you’ll see my thoughts on it in an upcoming review! Soon, I promise! This is another one I like to wear over a Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat Lip Liner – Hollywood Honey.
3. YSL Rouge Pure Couture The Mats #206 Grenat Satisfaction – a gorgeous wine rusty red with warm undertones and no visible blues in it. I guess this one will suit so many skin tones so I definitely recommend it! ( review and swatches here )
4. for an everyday/work appropriate/easy-to-apply-when-you’re-on-the-go lipstick I  definitely recommend one of the CHANEL Rouge Coco Shines from the Les Automnales 2015 Collection – #99 Mélancolie. ( full review on my picks from this collection here )
5. and another nude-ish pick, I had to dig out from my collection, the TOM FORD MATTE Lipstick in #04 Pussycat – a gorgeous creamy matte purple-brown shade so easy to wear, so long lasting and so comfortable on the lips. ( full review here )

So yeah! Since I had to narrow everything down to 5 lipsticks – for the sake of this post obviously, otherwise we’d still be here at Christmas!, these would be my recommendations for the Autumn of 2015.

So over to you now! What are your recommendations?

See you soon, Beautiful!

CHANEL 2015 Collection “Les Autumnales” Rouge Coco Shines: Mélancolie & Téméraire

Tags

Inspired by the beautiful Autumn foliage, Chanel came out this year on the market with an extremely rich tapestry of shades that dress the eyes, the cheeks and the lips with the most exquisite earthy neutrals and copper tones – eyes and cheeks and a blaze of deep reds for the lips… All falling under the name of Les Automnales 2015 Collection.

My picks: two of the new lipstick releases, the Rouge Coco Shines #99 Mélancolie and #112 Téméraire. I obviously had to pick the Rouge Coco Shines because it’s simply my favourite lipstick formulation of all the sheers that I have ever tried, right there with my Tom Ford correspondents ( see review/comparison between the two here ).

The Chanel Rouge Coco Shine #99 Mélancolie is on the nude side. A very rich, warm caramel brown, with visible shimmers in it. On my pigmented lips tends to disappear due to its sheer finish, as expected from all the Coco Shines. It’s an excellent everyday/any occasion lip colour, very hydrating, very natural on the lips. But if your lips are less pigmented than mine, then I guess you’ll be able to enjoy even more this spectacular Autumnal colour.

The Chanel Rouge Coco Shine #112 Téméraire on the other hand, surpassed all my expectations. A very deep, very pigmented, almost blazing red, Téméraire transfers on my lips with an unexpected pigmentation and coverage. With this one what you see in the tube you’ll have on the lips as well! And with the same beautiful formulation and glossy/sparkly finish.

They’re both two very well balanced lip colours that I’m sure I’ll wear a lot this season. Especially because of the formulation and not because of the actual shades which, let’s be completely honest here!, they’re not particularly unique!… Which also makes me think that they’re going to be good all year rounders as well! Not must haves though… Unless you’re not as mad as I am about this formula! Haha!…

What  I would definitely recommend from the Chanel Les Automnales 2015 Makeup Collection would be their Limited Edition items ( which I wasn’t able to get my hands on for the life of me! sighs ), starting with that amazing Les 5 Ombre de Chanel Eyeshadow Paette, called Entrelacs, a way more approachable version of the one from last year and definitely the Illusion d’Ombre in #111 Rouge-Gorge – as its name suggests, a “gorgeous” copper creamy-mousse eyeshadow.

Check all the items of the collection on Chanel’s website!

What do you think about this makeup collection Chanel proposed for the Autumn of 2015? Have you tried anything yet? Which items are your favourites?

See you soon, Beautiful!
