I was reading that Chanel's limited edition lipstick called Premier Rouge (First Red), was a replication of the color that Coco Chanel wore and introduced in 1924. Does anyone know what the color was named back in the day before it was reformulated?
On this board I had read that Chanel lipstick Red No. 5 (which existed from 2005 -2007) was the closest to the original red, but Red No. 5 is not a true red. It's a pinkish red; very similar to Coco Red. Anyway Premier Red is a reformulation of Chanel's classic red lipstick when there was only one red. It was the first red lipstick from Chanel, and that's why it's the latter day reformulation was called Premier Red...First Red. So, does anyone know what the original name was of Chanels first red lipstick? Maybe "red"???
