Not sure what I was thinking when I bought this because I NEVER wore it (well except maybe once or twice). It's a very very HOT pink color (on my lips) and it screams 'LOOK AT ME'. Very unwearable on me and also, very unflattering! Waste of money.

I would buy this again, haha, but I would never wear it again. Its a little too... extreme for me. Very beautiful coral, but its so strong on my lips! Makes me look odd. But this color is awesome if you like bright/strong corals. And as always, Chanel lipglosses have amazing lasting power!

i hear this is discontinued? I got one today and the gloss was almost empty. wth? Im going back for exchange. anyways, this is what i wanted bb's ruby sugar to be - a pretty fuschia/red with gold shimmers. My lips look so sexy and plump under natural light. I don't know why i didnt try this before. I would have bought several of these...EDIT: try layering with beige-salmon lipstick like adobe coral from revlon and mac lipliner in cranberry. It looks amazing!!!!

In the tube this had great potential to show up on me as coral but instead all I got was hot blue-pink frost. In the tube it's hot pink with orange shimmer, but the orange just doesn't show on me, sadly. It looks okay with a tan, and I like brights, but on this one it's the consistency that mostly irks me, it's more like an Extreme glossimer, which I really don't like.
Thank heavens for ebay. I would have been ripped if I paid full freight for this. Try Rimmel's Fantastic for same color, better consistency.
(MAC NC35 + a fake tan.)

Never thought I would ever buy a gloss this colour. It is a complex colour - reddish/pinkish/goldish/coral. Phew! But the MUA put it on in a makeover and I had to have it. My first Chanel gloss! Really surprised at how long it lasted! I can never go back to cheap gloss again. And I lerv this outrageous colour. Leaves a nice 'stain' behind too. :)

This was my first glossimer. I liked the brightness of the color which has been perfectly described by the ladies here already. A bright pink with an orange/gold sheen. I really like the color and the way it feels on my lips and the packaging i havent had any trouble with so far and it looks very elegant. I would repurchase if i ever had to but i doubt i will. As for my rating one knocked off for price and one for this being really not that versatile. So while i love it with some eye looks i just dont see it working with that many.

The colour is very intense pink with a hint of orange-gold. A very strong colour that has to be worn with neutral eyes. It's perfect for spring / summer!

looks killer shade in the tube, looks gorgeous on the lips. a must-have for summer. great staying power for a gloss.
chanel glossimers are, as far as the texture and the staying power are concerned, (and ignoring the lack of all kinds of red shades) amongst my favourite lipglosses (besides lancome star glosses and YSL lisse glosses).

This color is insane...on me it is a bright raspberry with golden shimmer, then it fades down to a hot pink stain. It has incredible lasting power. I am surprised at how opaque this is, more like a liquid lipstick than a gloss. I think the texture is ok but I prefer a slightly more emollient feel (like Chantecaille or Bloom). This can be built up for a more intense golden coral but on me it always dims back to pink within minutes for some reason. If this color is too bold, you can mix it with clear or light pink gloss to tone it down a bit. Overall I am pleased I gave this a whirl.

I usually love glossimers. The textures are amazing! This color IMO is too dramatic. It is bright, dark and shimmery. Too much in a lipgloss. I think it is overdone looking. It is also warmer than it looks on the website. Has almost an orange flash to the shimmer. Very loud color. Good name for it. This is a try before you buy forsure!

i LOVE the color its so pretty and summery. I love the gold sparkles in it. However, i just wish it wasn't so opaque. i personally perfer slightly sheer-er glosses. This is thick and very opaque. Other than that i LOVE! another great glossimer!

I LOVE this glossimer! It is a hot pink with gold shimmer in it. It's very thick and has great staying power! You need VERY little product when applying, so I can see that lipgloss lasting a VERY long time. I chose "no" to repurchase it just because there is so much in there I could never use it up and the color is a "once in a while" color. It's not something you can wear everyday.

Totally love this color!!! It looks so scary and vibrant on the tube, but comes out a nice coral on my lips. not overdone or vry striking. nice as always with glossimers. of course, the quality and looks of this gloss is superior. glossimers for me are the best glosses around!

This looked pinker to me on a hand test. It reads more coral on, because there is so much gold in the pink. It is pretty, but I find I like to blend it with another color to tone down the coral aspect. Not quite what I expected, but I'm making it work. Edit: Just figured out how to wear this and now I love it. The color is so intense that it needs a bit of toning down. I put on a dab of pink gloss to sort of dilute it,then very lightly dab on the Electric. If applied lightly, it is very pretty, not too neon bright. Bumping this baby up a point!

The color is just frightening in the tube but it's a lovely coral-tink with shimmer on the lips. Go easy on the application and you'll get better results. I'm a C4 in the summer and it looks phenomenal with a tan.

On my fair Asian complexion, this glossimer is bright, but not so bright that I would be afraid to wear it. (I happen to love bright lips anytime!) The gold shimmer sparkles with the bright blue-based hot pink and overall it is quite pretty. It's definitely a fun color to own!

[review updated] this shade doesn't work for me.. it's a sweet colour and it lasts with great shine thru the day. the gloss looks dark hot pink in the tube, but goes on a bright pinkish-tangerine colour with a golden irdescence and a hint of fuschia. i was scared off by the colour at first and should've trusted tt instinct but alas i thot it'd be fun, bought it and yes, i've learnt my lesson *lol* deep pinks, corals & reds are biiig NO-NOs for me.. if you have pale skin and pigmented lips, this gloss may be for you!
in any case, Chanel glossimers are one of the best! one lippie off for price tho, it's a bit too expensive for a lipgloss..

This is my second glossimer. I was a bit scared about trying it because it looks so scary in the tube, but, as the reviews said, it's a very pretty and wearable pink. My only complaint is that of many others: the gloss has a tendency to creep up the wand and get kind of messy. Other than that it is great!
