I saw Chanel recently release four new shades of Rouge Coco Lipstick for Spring. One of the shades was called Michele, and being a Michelle, I had to grab it. I talked about Chanel's new Rouge Coco reformulation here. I love Chanel, and Plumetis Rouge Coco is my favorite lipstick-pretty much of all time. I loved the old formula. I will say I'm not a huge fan of the new formula, while being lightweight it's not as moisturizing. The colors just haven't spoke to me either and they didn't bring back Plumetis in the new reformulation. So I will use my three Plumetis backups then cry.
Onto Michele. It's a creamy bright medium browned coral red with medium opacity. No shimmer. It's not fully opaque but does allow some natural lip color to peek through. Michele is pigmented enough and not just a lip tint. It's comfortable to wear, slightly glossy in sheen and lasts average for a creamy moisturizing lipstick, it's not long wearing.

Hello Michelle,
I just came across your reviews while searching for a longer-lasting version of Michele, which is the one color that brightens my face yet is not harsh. I am 66(oh gosh that hurts to see my age in print)and I am having the devil of a time finding long-wearing Michele. Do have any suggestions?
Thank you, Ann
Hi, sadly I'm not into longer lasting lipsticks so I don't have a good rec for you I'm sorry 🙂
