Love Love Love Love this gloss!!! I had 8 of them and used them all I have one left and wont use it until i find another!! I know this is no longer available but hopeing somone will list one on ebay or I may find it overseas when I go.
its sheer but sparkles!! the sparkles are silver and pink and the pink shows up on my lips and just looks pretty. I like to wear this alone during the summer or if I do my eyes up use this for a special occasion. I wish so much that Chanel had released this in the US because I had to have them sent from a relative overseas and well now I have one left and wishing I could search the country for more lol.

Starlette is a very sheer glossy pink with overtones of lilac. To be sure, it's pretty, but it's way too sheer for me; my natural lip color, which is a pigmented rosy hue, charges through, albeit overlaid with a barely there hint of pink. However, the microglitter does provide for a girly twinkle, which might be just what you're looking for. Moreover, it looks great over lipsticks, but in my experience, nearly all sheer lip glosses do. Although a lovely addition for the Chanel Glossimer collector, Starlette is nothing unique.

I'm so late to be reviewing my all-time favorite gloss! This is THE prettiest light pink with gorgeous shimmery due to the tiny silver flecks! I've gone through a couple tubes already, and I'm down to my last one, I just LOVE it. I usually apply on top of a sheer pink and more recently on top of Miss Pink. I find these glosses just wear so well. I've tried to find a substitute since it's no longer available, and the only thing that's come even close was the Origins Sheer Bubblegum on top of a pinky lipstick. However, it just can't compare to the Chanel quality or with the gorgeous shimmer this one has!! I'll keep looking, maybe they'll bring it back (fingers are crossed)!

I like Starlette! It is a lavender-pink gloss with silver sparkles. It is very light on, and I have very pale lips. But it is my very favourite nude lip. And much less sticky than Miracle Juicy tube (which it resembles). And it looks wonderful on every lipstick or lipliner I've tried as a top gloss coat.

I guess it gives them all a cool tone, which really suits me. I am very happy with it.

I blindly bought Starlette and I am pleased to say that it is even better than I expected. This Glossimer is PINK, sheer and shimmers with flecks of silver glitter. The exact shade of pink is similar to the color of Glaze Glossimer in the tube, but w/ a subtle mauve frost and lots of sparkle. Despite all of that darn glitter (think Lancôme JT in Miracle, Delux Denton) it is still as smooth as other Glossimers. If you are lucky enough to get your hands on this non-US, limited edition Glossimer I suggest you definitely give it a try.

My first ever Chanel Glossimer, finally found it at the Duty Free shop at LAX. Love the color, goes on sheer pink with tiny sparks; long lasting even thru lunch. Would recommand this, but I think this is LE or not available in US.

OMG, Starlette is a pretty gloss! And of course, it just has to be available to everyone except the US. :P Starlette is a cool medium pink with kind of a lavender tone to it. There is a lot of shimmer in this one, and of the glossimers that I've tried, this one seems more sparkly - almost glittery, but still in a classy way. I like to layer it over a bright pink lip for a glamorous, feminine look. It's also pretty over bare lips, making them look pretty and slightly etheriel. The minute I put this on my SO did a double take and asked me what I did to my lips, cause they were so pretty. That's when I knew I'd found an HG gloss. :)

What a pretty lip gloss this is! It looks like a light-pinkish shade in
the package, and when I wear it on my slightly pigmented lips, it glides on
like a dream - a sheer, glistening light-pink hue! Fantabulous, I tell ya! I'm
in love with it! *squeals in delight*(I couldn't find the exact shade, but its packaging is like this. Pic in Profile, tho.)

Chanel Glossimers are one of my favorite glosses, and I had a lovely MUAer CP it for me. I must admit I was a tad disappointed. Bright bubblegum with loads of shimmer int he tube, but when applied it is incredibly sheer, but a nice enhancement. The shimmer is noticeable but not overwhelming or gritty. I wouldn't buy it again because it is too hard to get a hold of in the States, and it is not something I see using often. As with all the glossimers, quality is top notch

Ahh I lurve this! My Bf got this for me and I did not know he had such good taste [Haa!] It went on really nicely for my lips and the intensity of glossy-ness was just right. Not too wet and not too glittery. The colour was also just right even though you see the pink looking really scary in the tube.
This gets a thumbs up from me! I heard they are limited edition?I dont know but if they are , I will definitely do a top up!!

This is the sheerest glossimer I have, with a barely-there hint of pink on my lips. I like it on days I don't feel like wearing much colour on my lips, or when I'm doing the smoky-eyed, and nude lips look, I just use Chanel's Nude lipliner just before starlette and I get my perfect pale nude lip. Lovely.

Starlette is paramount in my gloss collection. To date, it has had the longest run in my purse second only to Asher by Delux. Though these are totally different colors. This is a light pink with purple tones and silver glimmer that manages to not wash out my skin, but rather brighten up my face. The staying power is magnificent, unparralled to the majority of gloss out there. (For $24, it should be!) I would definitely repurchase. It is a shame that this gloss is only available outside of the US.

My very first Glossimer and I did not regret buying this! The colour looks almost like MAC Cultured l/g, except that this has more shimmers. This goes on sheer on my pigmented lips and I really love this! I'm a MMM asian.

This lip gloss reacted badly with my lips. It made them itchy and sore. BIG disappointment from a Chanel product. The colour itself was nothing special- very sheer and glittery. I ended up giving this way (I almost threw it in the bin!).

Starlette was a bit scary looking at first since it is a bubblegum pink shade in the tube, but when applied it gives a really slight hint of pink on my lips and with a beautiful shimmer. On my pigmented lips, its definitely a YLBB shade. Looks great with Nude liner blended with this gloss.

Love this glossimer shade--maybe my favorite (although I don't own many glossimers). Goes on much sheerer than it appears in the tube but still gives my lips a light pink, shimmery tint. It's not so sheer that its clear. Reminds me of NARS sweet dreams, but less frosty. Makes lips look sexy, wet, and girly. I think it would go with many skintones--i'm a tanned MMM right now and it goes really well. This may become a staple item! Too bad its LE

Such a pretty bubble-gum pink with tons of shimmers through it. However, it's not very pigmented and on me it looks almost clear with just loads of shimmers (multi-coloured, but looks mainly silver). I have reddish pigmented lips, btw. But worn over lipsticks, it's very pretty!

Absolutely 100% DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. It's easily my fave glossimer and I got it for only US$10 so I'm happy :) Starlette is a candy pink in the tube, but goes on a sheer, almost clear, pink with tons and tons of smooth iridescent glitter! And if you look closely, the glitter is actually multicolored. Texture wise, it has the signature super smooth and creamy feel to it - and doesn't dry my lips out at all. I do wish the packaging came a bit smaller and sleeker, but at least you do get a lot of gloss in there!

Oh my, this is so pretty =) The colour is frosty, but not too over powering for my pale complextion. It looks quite pink but goes on semi sheer. The texture of glossimers is far superior to any other gloss and is incredibly comfortable. Starlette is shimmery, shiney, glossy and pink....what more could a girl ask for ? =)
