Rouge Noir is one of those classics that never truly goes out of style. It was first released in 1994 and instantly developed a cult following. Now, in 2026, CHANEL BEAUTY has launched a new collection focused on the iconic shade and solidifying its prominence in the beauty world.
Cometes Collective – the in-house CHANEL BEAUTY team – member Ammy Drammeh, envisioned this collection, highlighting the complexity of the shade by pairing it with paradoxical, contrasting colours like vibrant magenta.

What makes the collection interesting is that it’s not a typical colour palette for Spring. However, burgundy is having a major moment and using it in an unexpected way is in a word… groundbreaking. Of course, pairing it with both softer shades and vibrant magnetas make it very wearable for Spring and CHANEL BEAUTY has created two inspirational looks to guide your creativity – Rose Graphique and Rouge Obscura.

To further pique our interest (and empty our bank accounts) the collection features signature, limited edition packaging with the Rouge Noir shade case or interlocking CC logo (depending on the product). Also available as part of the collection is a set of 3 makeup brushes with Rouge Noir coloured handles, complete with storage pouch.
