Joli Rouge Velvet by Clarins – Review and Lip Swatches

03/12/2018 By Claire 8 Comments

Today I am presenting to you some Clarins novelties: new shades in their Joli Rouge Velvet range. So I will be reviewing 5 matte shades for you guys, which are the following: 742v (Joli Rouge), 744v (Plum), 758v (Sandy Pink), 760v (Pink Cranberry) and 761v (Spicy Chili).

Overall review

I found the formula very easy to apply, and very pigmented in general. There is one exception I would say, and it’s the 744v shade (Plum), which, I felt had less coverage than the others. I had to put more layers in order to get the coverage I wanted, whereas I would apply only one layer of all the others to obtain a rich colour on the lips.

To be honest, I had my doubts about some shades, particularly when opening up the box and seeing these very bright colours (such as  760v (Pink Cranberry) and 761v (Spicy Chili)): even though I liked the shades, I was not sure of what it would look like on my Asian skin. But in the end, when swatching them one after the other, I realised they fitted my complexion pretty well! 

Moreover, the shades 742v (Joli Rouge), 760v (Pink Cranberry) and 761v (Spicy Chili) looked very similar to me at first. I was like, three times the same shade? But actually, once on the lips, they look pretty different from one another and are great variations of the classic red lip. You will find the detail of the shades below.

Put in a nutshell, these are gems. A huge range of shades to choose from and a great formula, what more could you ask for?

My favourites

So… If I really have to pick one (come on, two) shades which I preferred, it would be 758v (Sandy Pink) and 760v (Pink Cranberry). Because I love nude shades and Sandy Pink was perfection in this aspect. And because I was surprised to find a pink, which I thought looked good on me even though I do not really like pink usually.

It was very hard for me to pick one or two favourite shades, because I found out that all of these worked out surprisingly good on me. I was not expecting this, and I am amazed! I cannot wait to rock these in Spring and Summer.

***

Aujourd’hui, je vous présente des nouveautés de chez Clarins: de nouvelles teintes dans la gamme Joli Rouge Velvet. Je vous donne mon avis sur 5 teintes mattes, qui sont les suivantes: 742v (Joli Rouge), 744v (Plum), 758v (Sandy Pink), 760v (Pink Cranberry) and 761v (Spicy Chili).

Review générale

J’ai trouvé la texture très facile à appliquer et en général très pigmentée. Il y aurait une seule exception pour moi, ce serait avec la teinte 744v (Plum). J’ai eu l’impression d’avoir moins de couvrance avec celle-là qu’avec les autres: j’ai dû repasser plusieurs fois pour obtenir la couvrance que je voulais, tandis qu’avec les autres, un passage suffisait pour obtenir une couleur riche.

Pour être honnête, j’avais quelques doutes face à certaines teintes, surtout de prime abord en ouvrant la boîte et en tombant sur ces couleurs vives (telles que  760v (Pink Cranberry) et 761v (Spicy Chili)). Même si les couleurs me plaisaient en soi, je n’étais pas sûre de l’effet que ça donnerait sur ma couleur de peau asiatique. Mais tout compte fait, après les avoir toutes essayées l’une après l’autres, je me suis rendue compte qu’elles donnaient bien avec mon teint! 

De plus, les teintes 742v (Joli Rouge), 760v (Pink Cranberry) et 761v (Spicy Chili)  me semblaient presque identiques au premier coup d’œil.  J’étais un peu confuse. Mais en fait non, une fois appliquées, ces teintes se démarquent nettement et sont de belles déclinaisons du rouge classique. Vous trouverez une description plus précise des teintes ci-dessous.

En résumé, ces rouges à lèvres sont de petits bijoux. Un grand choix de teintes et une texture superbe, que demander de plus?

Mes préférés

Avant toute chose, j’aimerais préciser que ça a été difficile pour moi de choisir une (bon allez, deux) teintes préférées. Mais s’il le faut vraiment, je dirais que ce sont les teintes 758v (Sandy Pink) and 760v (Pink Cranberry) qui m’ont tapé dans l’oeil. La première, parce que j’adore les teintes nude et que Sandy Pink était à cet égard juste parfait.  La deuxième parce que j’ai été surprise de découvrir une teinte de rose qui me va bien, surtout que je n’aime pas vraiment le rose habituellement.

Le choix a été plutôt difficile pour moi, parce que toutes les teintes donnaient plutôt bien avec mon teint, et cela a été une agréable surprise! J’ai tellement hâte de porter ces teintes ce printemps ainsi que cet été!

The shades in detail | Les teintes en détail

742v | Joli Rouge

A timeless classic bright red, which I think works great on all skin tones.

Un rouge vif intemporel: une teinte qui, je pense, conviendra à toutes les couleurs de peau.

Swatch of the 744v Plum shade by Clarins, worn by Claire Ketterer

744v | Plum

A dark purple shade, which I personally love and that I would love to wear for a night out. 

Un violet foncé qui personnellement me plaît beaucoup et que je porterais volontiers en soirée.

Swatch of the 758v Sandy Pink shade by Clarins, worn by Claire Ketterer

758v | Sandy Pink

A nude shade with brown-orangey undertones. I simply love nude shades in general, because it changes from the usual red or pink lip and because it makes a classy statement.

Une teinte nude aux notes marron-orangées. J’adore les teintes nude en général parce que ça change d’un rouge ou d’un rose et parce que ça fait quand même un “statement” classe.

760v | Pink Cranberry

I thought I did not like pink shades on me, but that was before I got to try this one. I think it looks super cute and would be so nice for sunny days. I guess I did not like pink shades because I felt that they would look kind of cheap, but it was only a matter of finding the right one!

Je pensais que je n’aimais pas les teintes roses sur moi, mais ça c’était avant que j’essaie ce rose-ci! Je le trouve super mignon et je pense qu’il serait parfait pour les jours ensoleillés. Avant, je pensais que les teintes rosées faisaient peu classe, mais en fait, il me fallait juste trouver LA bonne teinte!

761v | Spicy Chili

This is typically a coral shade. With my experimentations over the years, I found out that coral shades (red with an orange undertone) worked great with my skin tone and this one is no exception. So if you have warm undertones, definitely give coral shades a try. It will give you serious Summer vibes!

Voilà une teinte que je qualifierais typiquement de “corail”. Après des années à essayer toutes sortes de teintes, je me suis rendue compte que les teintes corail marchaient plutôt bien avec ma couleur de peau, et celle-ci ne fait pas exception. Alors si vous avez un teint plutôt chaud, je vous conseillle vivement d’essayer ce genre de teintes. Cela vous donnera des envies d’été!
