New Chanel Le Rouge Crayon de Couleur: A Much-Needed Winter Pick-Me-Up

Chanel Le Rouge Crayon de Couleur Jumbo Longwear Lip Crayon N° 6 Framboise ($37)

There are only three things that can lift my mood in this freezing, overcast weather:

1. Central heating
2. Hot chocolate
3. A little Chanel… Obvs!

I mean, look at the big smile the new Chanel Le Rouge Crayon de Couleur has put on my face!

The new Chanel Le Rouge Crayon de Couleur N° 6 Framboise is a twist-up lip crayon with a high-shine finish and  good staying power. If you’re prone to bleeding, though, I recommend using an invisible liner around your lips, as such a creamy, glossy formula in a bright shade like Framboise can be pretty unforgiving. Other than that, the formula is comfortable to wear and doesn’t emphasize any lip texture, so it definitely gets my stamp of approval!

As you probably know, when it comes to bright shades I normally prefer a matte finish, but there’s something about the juicy look of this beautiful raspberry fuchsia that really maximizes the usual mood-lifting effects Chanel has on me by making me think of warm summer nights.

Whenever I wear it, I find myself daydreaming of casually putting it on to go explore some ancient Greek town after a long day spent at the beach…

[Then I usually abruptly realize it’s the dead of winter and summer is over 160 days away (but who’s counting?) and I end up more depressed than I was to begin with, but I guess you don’t need to know that…! 😉 ]

If you too need a winter pick-me-up, you can find the Chanel Les Rouges Crayons de Couleur right now at chanel.com.
