Thanks for the link! I'm excited, because collections that go to Nordstrom in the US generally come to either The Bay or Holt Renfrew here in Canada.

Great that this collection is available at Nordstorm. I love the pink Aqualumiere gloss. It goes well over pink lipsticks like Magnolia, without turning the colour too pink or shimmery, but just a pretty luminous pink. I've forgotten about the beige gloss but I tried it on and it looked beautiful over nudes. Maybe I should pick it up..

I believe baked as Rose tourbillon was last time.

The Chanel lady at my local Nordstroms showed me the testers for this collection today and said that they are taking preorders starting the first of July.  Not too far away.

Is the illusion d'ombre being launched as well? Oh boy here I go again! Do we know for sure this is coming to the bay? Holt's?

I was able to do the pre-sale for this . Based on what I've read, I ordered the blush and the pink gloss. The MA was raving about the gloss. I'm passing on the shadows for now, I already have more e/s than I will ever wear and the colors didn't seem to be unique.

 

On a different note, I also ordered the set from Lancome. It was $80 and included an eyeshadow quad (beige..the colors were so pretty) full size mascara, sample mascara, liner, some other things I can't remember. Best of all, there was also a gift with purchase that included another quad, lipstick, mascara, etc. All total it was only $80! I know this isn't a Lancome thread but it was too good a deal not to share.

I want Riviere! I was trying to decide between Rose Initiale and Fleur de Lotus and I think Rose Initiale won, Fleur de Lotus is too similar to Espiegle and some of the other blushes I own =(

 

I might change my mind once I see it in person though =]

I don't think Fleur de Lotus is anything like Espeigle.. Espeigle is more peachy and Fleur de Lotus is more of a corally pink with a fine pearl shimmer from what I saw. Wish card holders could buy now instead of waiting till next week.

I already did a CP for the items I wanted from this collection when it was originally released.  So I will be skipping this release.

Here is a nice review of the quad (#35 Rives) if anyone is interested:

I have been calling every chanel counter in my area to ask about this collection and no one really knows!

I called the Bay, Holt and even the chanel boutique and the only thing they have is Diwali. Looks like I may have to miss out on the blue illusion d'ombres and riviere ssad.gif

They probably don't know about it because it's exclusive to Nordstrom. It won't be available until the Anniversary Sale on the 19th.

If you have the chance to get it, I highly recommend the Fleur de Lotus blush. The color is amazing and it has the best texture of any blush that I own. If it wasn't so expensive, I would get a backup. The quad is also very, very nice. The colors aren't too unique but they make for a very nice, neutral 'every-day' eyeshadow look. The texture and pigmenation are fantastic.

 

I picked mine up at Nordstrom yesterday and they were already down to a few pieces.

Purple Popcorn - I always get confused which thread I'm in girlhaha.gif

 

MaryJane - I agree! I love that blush too. I just ordered the es quad from my closest store. Both of my Nordies said that they did not get a lot of quantities. One said 6 of each.

Oh no! I'm so nervous I'm going to miss out on Fleur de Lotus.  I don't have a Nordies card so I can't do presale.  I hope there is some still left for the general public (me included).

I just called in my local nordstrom, and she let me order it without the nordies card, I suggest you give it a try!
