CHANEL

What a gorgeous shade! BUT after purchasing it and wearing it for several days, I realize it's a mistake for me, and a pricey one at that -- ouch! There used to be one of those "rules" about older women needing to think about avoiding "frosted" lipsticks, and I proved that darn rule with this purchase. If only it were this beautiful color without anything metallic about it, but instead, it just ages my face, and that's means it's a total failure for me. So younger ladies, go for it because this is an absolutely beautiful color and worth a try. And fellow "56 and over"s, be careful of this one, even if you have success with other lipstick formulas that sparkle. And meanwhile, happy hunting for the perfect lipstick!

This soap was gifted to me by my boyfriend. I wished I could give this more than an average rating. It could be my skin is too dry and sensitive to use this soap on a regular basis. I don't think the scent resembles the Coco Mademoiselle parfum, but it does have a nice lingering scent. I couldn't give it a terrible rating, because it seems to work for others. I say give it a try and see for yourself.

so glad Chanel released this in 50ml for traveling! ive already reviewd this line as a whole but i felt i needed to rave about Paris Venise on its own as a category. Its a warm oriental but very wearable. Its soft and creamy, powdery, fresh and fruity at the same time. I think of a orange cake. It is sweet but it isnt syrupy or goopey. This has got that waxy cosmetic scent to it and i love it. I cant help but sniff myself all the time. The lasting power is great compared to the other ones in this line. Its just got enough freshness with the powder to balance everything and work in harmony to perfection. It def has the Chanel DNA running through this. This does run more on the feminine side than the rest of the Les Eaux. I love Jersey from the Les Exclusifs line so if you love Jersey then you will like this. Its got that soft blanket feel to this just like Jersey.
