I really really like Confidence EX gloss! Its so pretty over nudes & pale pinks. I wear it all the time now with my smokey eyes. Imaginaire is so so pretty too - its been sitting in my cart

Does anyone have Magnifique glossimer? Is the golden shimmer gritty on the lips or does it feel smooth?

I have Mag. as well & love it on - no gritt

I wore Confidence over a pale pink l/s and I like it! I also wore Exces yesterday for the first time!

I've worn Emoi at work and I love it. 

Does anyone know if Saks is still carrying the Liberté RAEG?  Is it only in store if it is?  I'd love to buy it but there's no Saks near me.

Liberte is only in-store, not on Saks online. I got it sent to me from a counter a few weeks ago and honestly I love all the other shades more (except for the nude color which was too brown on me). It's just not very noticeable on me at all, but maybe my pigmented lips are the problem. If you have pigmented lips I wouldn't go crazy trying to find it. JMO.

I like Liberte over Chintz, because Chintz is quite creamy and when I apply glossimers eg Bikini Peach over it, it becomes too slippery and heavy for me.

I'll give that a try Miss QQ, thanks. I like wearing the other Extrait de glosses all by themselves.

I wear the extrait de glosses on their own too, but I prefer them over lipsticks.

I just got Pink Pulsion today.  LOVE IT!

Yay!! Me too! I happen to be wearing it right now over a light stain of Cambon Rouge Coco...fabulous! And yes your pooch is adorable!

 

How pigmented is Pink Pulsion? Does the natural lip colour show if it is worn on its own? I'm thinking if I need it.

It's not all that pigmented. Will definately let your natural lip show through.

Thanks, I just saw the comments on PP in the holiday thread.

i want to try Chanel glosses but they're so expensive not sure if i should buy into the hype

I find with most Chanel items the hype is warranted!  The price isn't small, no doubt there, but I really think out every single purchase I make and because of that I avoid impulse purchases, I buy less, and I'm happier with each item I end up with.

The lip items are especially great, IMO, and worth at least a swatch to see if they work for you.

The Chanel glossimers are what got me hooked on Chanel!  I love them over lipsticks.  If you live near a counter, go check them out -- you may just fall in love!
 

Glossimers and the Le Vernis are what got me hooked.  I absolutely love Glossimers!

Christine at Temptalia just did a review of Genie -- here is a link to her blog post:  http://www.temptalia.com/chanel-rouge-allure-extrait-de-gloss-review-photos-swatches-part-2#more-26983

I wore MUFE Moulin Rouge l/s and topped it with Exces. Gorgeous red combination! I love it!

From what KarenMBB said, Aqualumieres are being phased out (http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/product-reviews/chanel-rouge-allure-goes-extrait-de-gloss/).

I have never tried Chanel lip glosses but after she said that I got the bf to pick up Aqualumiere in Freeze for the fun of it - just to try it on. It's quite nice but it doesn't last for more than 2 hours on me - then again lipstick/lipgloss never last long on me so I'm not against reapplying.

Here are my glosses that came in the Holiday lip kit.  I forgot to take a pic with the Chanel Beaute patent black bag they came in (so cute).  It also came with a lip liner and sharpener.  Muscat on the left and Wild Rose on the right.  I didn't capture at all how pretty Muscat is.  I LOVE it -- a gorgeous pink nude.  I really wish it was perm.  I would buy a backup in a second if I ever saw it again.  Wild Rose is a pretty plum pink on me with the most gorgeous shimmer.

I think Muscat was originally part of an Asia/Europe-exclusive collection called the Beiges Collection (around 2006?) and was later a Nordstrom exclusive here, I think for summer 2009, but I'm not positive about the timing. You might try calling a Nordies counter to see if anyone can track down a back-up for you. It was still on the Nordies web site as of this past summer but not now.

Looking at the Genie review on Temptalia just reminds me that I don't understand why Confidence isn't permanent! lol

I know, I love Confidence, too.  Probably my fav RAEG shade.  It really should be perm!

Confidence is one of the best colors I've ever seen on me. It works really well with my sister too. Just got the last one at my Chanel counter -- both a very happy and sad moment for me because now I don't know what to do when I need a back-up. I really wish Chanel would make it perm.

I saw Confidence still on Nordies online the other day. Maybe they still have it if you want to buy another.

I bought Confidence about a week and a half ago in duty free so its still available!
