Chanel Le Crayon Levres No. 17 Grenat

Advantages: Creamy moisturising and available in many colours
Disadvantages: Not as hardwearing as other Chanel lipsticks

...Whatever your colouring Chanel has a lipstick for you and this formulation offers a steady stream of high impact fashion colours with a highly moisturising finish. Hydrabase is the formulation to choose if you have dry lips or feel most comfortable with a soft finish that is neither matte nor overtly shiny. Easy to apply either from the bullet or with a brush. The lipstick smells of roses and glides easily onto the lips without drag. Coverage is excellent and wearability is acceptable for this type of formulation. High quality in the distinctive black and CC monogrammed case this product would make a suitable gift for a special friend or your self - now if only you could choose which one? Decisions decisions!... Read review

Advantages: comes with sharpener, has a blender on the end, is much longer than normal eyeliners
Disadvantages: none that i have experienced

...Yes, i know what you're thinking, its Chanel, its expensive you're paying for the name, well this one is worth a second look. Being a fan of black eyeliner of an evening, i have searched through many a product trying to find one that goes on perfectly first time.

Another advantage is that you do not use as much, especially as it lasts for quite a while and you only need touch up about once or twice a night, depending on how long you are out, and so the product lasts for ages before you have to even sharpen it!! Not to mention the handy blender for that smoky look, no more searching or a blender in your make up case, thers one on the end! I am not sure about whether it runs... Read review

Advantages: Original colour palettes
Disadvantages: Cost

...I believe the Chanel range of skincare, should be treated totally seperately to the makeup as in the skincare range i have tried the following products and found them totally overpriced, and completely useless: Cleansers SYSTÈME PURETÉ - LE GEL £15 for 150mls GENTLE BIPHASE EYE MAKEUP REMOVER £13.50 for 100 ml SYSTÈME PURETÉ - LA MOUSSE £15 for 150 mls Toners ACTIVATEUR ÉCLAT £18.00 for 200mls ACTIVATEUR HYDRATATION £18.00 for 200mls ACTIVATEUR PURETÉ £16 for 200mls Eyecare AGE DELAY EYE GEL £29 for 15mls None of these products i would go out and buy again, yes they were adequate, but not worth the money. The biggest joke of all time was the ACTIVATEUR ÉCLAT, it was a translucent soft pink gel-lotion containing tiny red spheres in suspension. What the heck were the little red beads supposed to do, other than look pretty? Complete... Read review
