Chanel Rouge Allure in 'Excentric' is one of the most gorgeous lipsticks I have ever owned! It applies like butter, never dries your lips and leaves a nice glossy shine. But the color is what it is most famous for - it's a really dark bluish purple color with cool undertone and depending from lightning it can look from vine-red to violet. The color is truly eccentric and classy!
First swatch (daylight):
The packaging is classy and luxurious - just as usual.
I have pale blue-toned skin and it looks fantastic with some neutral eye-makeup and black clothes plus silver jewelry. Also a perfect color for a vintage/pin-up look!

On my swatches it looks like a classic vine red, but in fact it looks closer to the color that Dita Von Teese uses:
Here's my own pin-up makeup look with this lipstick:
Despite all the advantages, I need to warn you, ladies: this lipstick requires flawless skin! The perfect match would be pale, blue-toned porcelain skin (just like Dita's). Also this lipstick is VERY pigmented so be careful using it. For an everyday usage I would recommend just gently tapping the color onto your lips. By the way, the staying power is incredible!
The price was about 30$. I believe it was a special addition, but you can still buy it online.
P.S. Halloween is comming so I've got an idea for you - use it for a dramatic vintage look, a Marilyn Manson inspired makeup or you can even become a Cruella de Ville with this gorgeous lipstick! I think I'll post some Halloween makeup tutorial soon using this color, tell me if you eant me to!
