You didn’t think I’d come back from Singapore without a gift for my lovely blog followers did you? I wanted to bring you something special, something you can’t yet purchase in the UK (as far as I know!) So can you imagine my excitement when I saw the Chanel Spring 2012 makeup display? I fell head over heels and immediately decided I must purchase a little something for one of you lovely ladies.
I defy you not to fall in love with this little beauty, Chanel Glossimer in Bagatelle #162…
It’s the prettiest warm pink with a hint of coral and a delicate gold shimmer running through. I genuinely don’t think it could get more gorgeous!
I took this swatch pic in the Chanel store - Bagatelle is the front right hand corner swatch, next to my watermark - rather blurry I know but the colour is true.
This shot is the only one taken in good daylight, when I noticed my roses were pretty much identical in colour! The colour looks muted in the other late afternoon light shots (roll on longer, brighter days!).
I honestly think this is the loveliest lipgloss I’ve seen in a long time (pics don’t do it justice) I’ll definitely treat myself when they come to a UK store near me (along with the blush which is TO DIE FOR!). The Ion Centre, Singapore’s new superglam shopping mall is the first in the country to stock the Spring range & luckily that’s where I ended up!
NB The most true colour of this product can be seen in the pic taken with the roses and the swatch pic above. I would have redone the others but my camera is playing up.
