Chanel is reintroducing their Rouge Coco Lipstick. last updated in 2010.
So what's new ? The formula has been updated to be more hydrating. The last reiteration had meadowfoam oil, the new version has an exclusive complex including jojoba and mimosa butters, sunflower wax and silicone . The colors are also new , all named for someone special in Gabrielle Chanel's life. The case remains the same , heavy with a satisfying click.

I think of these lipsticks as "real" lipstick. The kind of old fashioned ones that Garbo might have swiped on, modernized. Rouge Coco is not matte nor is it glossy. They have no shimmer but a slight satin sheen. Pigment is rich, not quite full, two coats suited me best and they feel good on lips.
In comparison to two of my older ones , the new version does seem more hydrating , a little less dry and more comfortable.
Chanel Rouge Coco comes in 29 shades and sells for $ 36.
