Went and checked out the quad and rest of the collection... Had the quad on hold but passed on it. I loved the mint green and duo chrome eyeshadows but the other two aren't great. I did love delice and ended up buying it... It's gorgeous.

Did you get anything else except Delice? How did you like the aqualumiere glosses? Do they have a new Illusion d'Ombre shade? I am going to check it out next week and the quad is on my wish list together with Delice and IdO.

I got to meet this collection today! Held off getting anything for now, but that's going to change. I'm undecided on the quad. I love that formula (same as the holiday quad from last year), but the shades seem dupe-able to me... Delice is beautiful and really luminous, more so than the other really light highlighters that I have, without getting too frosty. The thing I was really surprised to like was the Joues Contraste in Candy. It's a really fascinating colour, kind of amber-peach with a rosy pink sheen.

Delice has been in my list forever. It isn't frosty at all! Maybe it is already sold out at my counters since I have been sitting on it for months. I thought Candy is too orange for me so I didn't consider getting it, but the colour is unique. I passed the quad because the colours didn't speak it me, but it is very beautiful on the eyes. Very luminous and brightening, and the colours work well together. Great for tired/sick days.

cheruba - Convoitise IdO is gorgeous! It is a pale, cool gold. Do check it out! I love the glosses, especially Friandise. The pink shimmers make the gloss look very bright pink but on the lips, the gloss itself isn't very pink and the shimmers stand out.

Miss QQ, is Gourmande RCS part of this collection too or is that a shade in the permanent collection where you are? What does it look like?

That's my concern with it too. I adore the shade, but I worry it's too orange and too warm...

Is the US getting the white jc in fun. Maybe Nordstrom anniversary? I saw the collection today at Saks, but the blush/highlighter was not there.

I just picked up Delice, the aqualumiere glosses are gorgeous, I went back to pick them up but when I tried them on my lips are too pigmented that the colour doesn't show up... so sad! My store didn't get the new illusion d'Ombre, but the display had a place for it, my SA (who is the manager) said they wouldn't be getting one. The quad... I loved the top two shadows but was really underwhelmed with the bottom two. My hubby convinced me I didn't need to pay that much for two eyeshadows haha.. men, they really don't understand our love for makeup.

I've been trying to talk myself out of it, but I think I might need Delice/Fun in my life. It's gorgeous and I really don't have a proper highlighter (the horror!).

It is part of this collection, and if I recall correctly I was told it is permanent. It is a gorgeous soft, peachy pink and it shows up on my pigmented lips.

So I picked up Delice today! It's a gorgeous highlighter and I love how it gives my skin a really pearly finish. I ended up passing on the quad, although we'll see if that sticks. I'm also still thinking about Candy, which is beautiful but I think it looks a little ruddy on my skin.

Saks is ridiculous with their shipping charges. Never any codes unless you spend $150-200. They can just keep their stuff as far as I'm concerned.

I picked up the Délicatesse quad and Friandise gloss when I was at Saks for a makeover. I ordered Delice blush from Chanel.com today.

Let us know how you like Delice CC. Anyone else getting it? For some reason I am not tempted to order it...I think because I never use any of the highlighters that I have. Or maybe it's just because I'm more excited about the fall collection. I dunno...

Will do! I love Chanel's shipping. Delice is already on its way to me.

I just ordered it. Glad Chanel.com has it since my saks didn't. The blush/highlight was the only thing I wanted from the collection.

Delice is a Chanel.com exclusive, so it won't be available at Saks. What I'm not sure about is the Candy blush. I don't think Saks is getting it either, but I'm not sure if it will also be available at Chanel.com. Does anyone know?
