Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon Dupe – Glam Radar

by Jane · March 19, 2015

Many red lip lovers own and adore Chanel Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon but it’s sadly been discontinued. I purchased mine off of Ebay and (mistakenly) bought the tester. Although the packaging is different (glass instead of a black casing), it’s still the same Dragon that many love. It is a complex, intense, rich blue based medium red that is universally flattering. chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-dupe-500x281-1 chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-500x281-1 chanel-rouge-allure-laque-500x281-1 Here’s Dragon on the lips. See that glossy shine and subtle shimmer? Absolutely stunning! dragon-dupe Lucky for you, since I’ve got two dupes for Dragon! Minus the shimmer and high price of course. *Revlon Brilliant Bordeaux is not a dupe but is included in here as a comparison. chanel-rouge-comparision-500x281-1 chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-swatches-500x207-1 chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-swatch chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-swath1 chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-swatch2   chanel-rouge-allure-laque-in-dragon-look-500x158-1

1) BEST DUPE: NYX Absolute Lip Creme in Absolute Red ($6) – Lighter, warmer base color (more tomato) but with the same glossy finish with intense pigmentation and similar texture. Looks the most like Dragon due to its finish.

2) RUNNER UP: Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Lipcolor in Top Tomato ($9) – most similar in base color, a bit warmer, but with a completely different texture (matte finish with a watery, drying “clings to your lips” consistency) – making it appear much different than Dragon compared to Absolute Red. It’s also not as pigmented as Dragon. Needs 2-3 layers to look similar to Dragon.

3) NOT A DUPE: Revlon Colorstay Ultimate Lipcolor in Brilliant Bordeaux ($9) – not similar at all in color, sheer, blotchy application, wouldn’t recommend at all
