Chanel Happy

I don’t consider myself to have a favorite makeup brand.  However there are brands which hold a soft spot in my heart like NUXE, Avene, Clarins and of course Chanel. Chanel is one of those brands that remain on top of the newest trends and yet always remains classic.

Yes, I told myself only last week that I would start buying less lip products and limited myself to only 5 a year. Somehow the jelly formula captivated me. Plus the fact that this is limited edition made me suddenly think ‘it’s now or never’. Chanel products do that to me there special edition products just sell out so quickly. 


First off I love glossimers right down to how long they wear to the jaw dropping colors have to be my all-time favorite lip gloss. Glossimers can be sticky and thick but since they sit on your lips without sliding all over your face it’s a sacrifice I am willing to take. As for Happy, it makes me ever so happy (bet you didn’t see that coming). While this looks like a hot fuchsia in the tube it wears more like a very glossy lip tint. The fuchsia tint itself looks very flatting as where the super shiny formula makes lips look juicy.

While this was rather of an impulsive purchase I have to say I don’t regret it at all. Happy is flattering and application is so simple you don’t even need a mirror.  I love bright lip colours but it’s honestly these sheer easy to use colours I wear every day. If you’re into the whole low maintenance thing but want a summer take on your favorite tinted lip balm definitely check Chanel’s Happy.
