The CHANEL Le Rouge Duo Tenue delivers on its promise of lasting colour and high shine. The liquid lip colour applies smoothly, offering opaque coverage in a single swipe. Once dry, it forms a resilient base for the gloss. The gloss then transforms the look, adding volume and a comfortable, non-sticky feel, along with its signature mirror-like finish.
Prepare Lips: Ensure lips are clean, dry, and exfoliated for the smoothest application. You can use a lip primer if desired, but it's not strictly necessary.
Apply Liquid Lip Colour: Using the flocked applicator, apply a thin, even coat of the liquid lip colour to your bare lips. Start from the center and move outwards. Avoid pressing lips together during this step.
Allow to Dry: Let the liquid lip colour dry completely for approximately 1-2 minutes. This is crucial for its long-wearing properties.
Apply Gloss: Once the colour is dry, apply the shiny gloss over the entire lip area. This will lock in the colour, add comfort, and create the desired high-shine finish.
Blot Carefully: If you feel the gloss is too thick, gently blot with a tissue after application, but avoid pressing directly on the colour layer.
Avoid Oily Foods: Oily foods can break down the formula, particularly the gloss, leading to quicker fading.
Touch-Up Gloss Only: For maintaining shine throughout the day, you only need to reapply the clear gloss, not the liquid colour.
Using the Le Rouge Duo Tenue is straightforward once you understand the two-step process. No special setup is required beyond ensuring your lips are clean and dry before initial application.
This product is designed for lip application. The Soft Rose 48 shade is a versatile pink in the 'Pink' colour family, making it broadly compatible with various skin tones and makeup styles. It can be worn alone for a natural, polished look or integrated into a more elaborate makeup routine.
Storage: Store the product upright at room temperature, away from direct sunlight or extreme heat, to maintain its formulation and prevent separation.
