Chanel Makeup and Cosmetics

Chanel is an integral part of the fashion and beauty products industry and has been around for close to a century now. Aside from haute couture, Chanel is also famous for its perfumes, scents and fragrances but also produces cosmetics, makeup, skincare products, watches and accessories including handbags.

Chanel makeup and cosmetics are much favored by celebrities and are or have been used by Nicole Kidman, Audrey Toutou, Keira Knightley, Emma Watson, Vanessa Paradis and Kate Bosworth amongst many others.

Most recently launched by the brand was the Chanel Rouge Coco line of products, which is actually a modern interpretation of the classic Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour that was initially launched in 1924.

There are a host of popular Chanel makeup products including Mat Lumiere, Teint Innocence, Le Blanc De Chanel, Eclat Lumiere, Levres Scintillantes, Vitalumiere, Poudre Universelle Libre and Poudre Universelle Compacte amongst others.

One product that most reviewers found was not worth repurchasing was the Chanel Pro Lumiere Professional Finish Makeup despite its having a great moisturizing effect and sunscreen.

The most commonly cited reason for this view was that it simply does not last long enough and is likely to wear off after three to four hours. Perhaps being a professional product, this is acceptable for models and actors who need to look good for short periods before getting their makeup re-done, but for everyday life, it simply does not work.

While many users commented that Chanel products seem to exorbitantly priced, most women do believe that the price is justified as Chanel makeup products work so well.

While cosmetic products such as the Mat Lumiere, Vitalumiere and Teint Innocence live up to expectations, some users did find that the availability of shades for Chanel products was limited as compared to other brands like MAC cosmetics.

Overall, Chanel is a prestigious brand and their makeup and cosmetics are effective and worth buying despite being somewhat highly priced. Chanel is one of those brands that confers a status to users of its products and while not all of its products are beyond reproof, most are well worth the initial setback.

You can find all the Chanel cosmetic products including makeup products from their very latest collection, Cote D’Azur, with up to 55% discounts at Real Woman Jeans.
