Chanel Aqualumiere Sheer Colour Lipshine SPF 15 is surprisingly disappointing from Chanel - and I bought mine from the counter so can't blame it on old stock from any website either :-( Firstly it didn't have a really strong colour to it with regards to pigment, so it felt a bit 'nothing' on the lips; perhaps it was just the shade I chose but I was expecting a bit 'more' really, especially from Chanel. The packaging was a bit of a let-down considering the quality of the likes of Bobbi Brown which I use regularly, which really 'snap' when you close them. This didn't sound as expensive as it cost! The lipstick hardly lasted any time at all & I didn't feel it protected my lips at all from the sun despite the SPF claims. When I reapplied it looked exactly like I HAD reapplied instead of being flawless as I'd hoped. I had to blot & mess around with the application & I'd definitely recommend taking a lipbrush with you if you need to reapply. All in all, really disappointing. I tried to take it back & the assistant wasn't at all helpful either which makes me feel their customer service is lacking as well.
