So far I have Riviera and Vénitien, as they are perm there is no hurry but you're right we might end up with all 8 of them lol ( for many of us ! )Ladies,
you will all end up with all 8 of them! That is what happened to me, one after another, slowly these palettes took over my make-up desk!
It is pigmented but on me it doesn't show much as I'm very pale and have a cool-toned complexion. It blends into my skin, I'm NW15/20. But on skins darker than mine I would expect it to be very obviously pink. Here are my swatches, I also don't have issues applying these with my MAC brushes, but I do use applicators as well and get the best pigment when I apply them straight over a cream base.
I can't think of any of the quads that wouldn't work, but it may just come down to your personal color preferences.
Poesie!
I second that!!!

Any particular recommendations among the Chanel ones for sort of blue/ grey eyes (the exact colour of my eyes is sort of puzzling)?

The colors appear light to me, not necessarily dull. Interestingly, this is Sara's "least favorite." See her additional impressions via the second link below.
That is really really beautiful on you!It is pigmented but on me it doesn't show much as I'm very pale and have a cool-toned complexion. It blends into my skin, I'm NW15/20.

We have the same ones Meleftie, but my Vendome & Camélia will arrive on Friday. Since Poésie is the only one that's limited edition, I'd say you can pick up the others
Hi, After looking at all those reviews and swatches online (including Sara's, http://www.beautyscene.nl/p/154256/mijn_review_van_de_nieuwe_chanel_les_4_ombres_met_swatches, etc) Tisse Mademoiselle was actually my second favourite of the quads; I just personally find that those particular swatches look lacklustre to me
Thank you Elegant!
I remember seeing your review [@]LivN[/@]: http://blushnglow.com/2014/04/06/chanel-les-4-ombres-eyeshadow-palette-in-202-tisse-camelia/comment-page-1/It is pigmented but on me it doesn't show much as I'm very pale and have a cool-toned complexion.

Yeah I've poured over Sara's awesome reviews and swatches. Problem is her skin tone is MUCH different then mine. The closest beauty blogger I've found to me skintone wise is Karen from Makeup and Beauty Blog. Here are her swatches: http://www.makeupandbeautyblog.com/cosmetics/chanel-quadra-eyeshadow-quad-fall-2014/
Thanks for the link!
We're talking about Vendome right? Well, it sounds like Karen was liking it for herself.
I am dying here I thought I was done with Chanel until the holidays
I just got my goodies from Nordies....
My Dior and my beautiful .....Dentelle, innocence ,hesitation and songe....the only thing that I am still waiting for is the TF blush.
Now these beautiful pallets are calling my name....but which to choose???....I can't think!
I know I want Venitien, and maybe Rivoli........but Karen looks beautiful in Poesie (which I don't see anywhere) so maybe Vendome ?
Poésie sold out pretty quickly and happens to be the one that's limited edition. If I see it again I'll let you know because it didn't sell at all merchants---maybe it'll resurfaceThank you .....you have been so helpful, I only got the TF blush in Ravish and will wait on the new collection otherwise I will go with your advise on the TF pallets.
I am going to limit myself to just 3 for now .....so since I don't see Poesie anywhere( and its my first choice) I will start with Venitien and Rivoli ......
