Is there ever a product that you just want to get because of the packaging?
Lots, I know LOL!

Ever since the beginning of the pandemic, when we were forced to stay indoors, I’d ditched any semblance of wearing makeup. Why bother, when you won’t be going out, or wearing a mask. It felt like a waste of time and effort (and in many ways, it was).

But the mask-off policy means that we can go back to wearing lipstick!
What better time then, to tell you about the new Chanel Rouge Allure L’Extrait refillable lipsticks.
Chanel calls this the Rouge Allure l’Extrait High Intensity Lip Colour, and I did not appreciate that description until I swatched them.
I was quite blown away! Now, THIS is a warm welcome to the return of lipstick! 😀
