The new formulation on the website just popped up. Here's the description:
OLD formula is called: Satin Smoothing Fluid Makeup
NEW is: Moisture-rich Radiance Fluid Makeup

For comparison, old: Quote:
Was Vitalumiere always mineral-based?. I'm annoyed -- I wanted to switch to Chanel because Diorskin Nude's mineral-based liquid has been giving me trouble lately, like most mineral foundations do. Hopefully this isn't the case.
EDIT: Looks like this could be a potential march for porcelains! Albatre (0.5) in Teint Innocence was still too dark/yellow-toned for me. Description of Diaphane in the new Vitalumiere from a Chanel rep: Quote:

New: Quote:
| The ultimate solution to tired skin, the best-selling CHANEL foundation now instantly revitalizes the complexion upon application — and throughout the day. The formula has been updated with new ingredients to specifically target dry, dull and uneven skin, and moisturizing agents to provide hydration and comfort. A marine extract boosts cell energy to enhance radiance, and mineral-based pigments smooth away imperfections, creating a soft-focus effect. Creamy and luxuriously lightweight, this essential daily foundation blends effortlessly for perfectly smooth, even-toned, radiant skin. |
For comparison, old: Quote:
| Anti-fatigue, hydrating formula delivers a young, radiant look, as lines, wrinkles and imperfections seem to be erased. Ultra-gliding fluid provides light-to-medium buildable coverage with a dewy finish to enhance skin's natural glow. Protects against aging UVA/UVB rays with SPF 15. |

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
^^ I figured it would be pinky. Won't work for me, but I hope it will for you. I am very happy with my Chantecaille Future Skin in Porcelain. That's pretty neutral so if the new Chanel doesn't work for you you might consider giving it a try.
I ended up with several Rouge Cocos and love them all - Camelia, Gardenia and Orchidee. Orchidee is without a doubt the brightest lipstick I own, but it's gorgeous! The scent is thankfully really not bothering me at all. I am going to order Teheran if Chanel.com ever gets it back in stock.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
I finally got around to trying the Rouge Coco l/s today! To be honest, I was a bit hesitant since three of the four colours I picked were really out of my comfort zone. But today I was not in the mood to bother with eyeshadow (which is extremely rare). So I decided to throw some liner and mascara on and try out one of my Chanel lippies. I picked Mademoiselle, and let me say, this colour is definitely popular for a reason! I honestly think this shade will work with any skintone! It is gorgeous, a nice bright neutral pink shade with a touch of coral to it. Both of my kids commented on it!
This lipstick wears extremely well (I saw someone had asked about this a few posts down). I had a cup of tea and it was still on after, and my lips did not dry out at all. So to sum up, I love this formula!
Oh, and Winthrop, Gardenia looks stunning! I wish we had this here. I should look into it, sometimes we get things here that are exclusive to one store in the U.S.

ITA about them wearing well, so much better than the MAC lustres I usually wear. I know Australia has Gardenia as a regular shade, Canada may very well too. I waited too long to get it online and ended up having to call the other side of the country to get mine. lol

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
Who here likes the Rouge Coco in Teheran?
I can't wait for the Summer collection, I called and put my name on the list for Nouvelle Vague and Riviera Nail Polishes. I'm debating on a good coral l/s and want to try Genial when it comes out and Teheran when its in stock.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
Shadowy Lady has Teheran and I just arranged a swap for one. I spoke with Chanel online yesterday and they told me as of now they do not plan to restock it. They did say that could change, and that they were recording how many people called asking for it, but if you can get your hands on one from someone else now I would.

Has anyone tried the UV Essentiel Protective Care SPF50? It seems ridiculously expensive for a sunscreen.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
I picked up three of the Rouge Coco lippies yesterday, but I think I'm going to have to return them.
For some reason, the smell is really, really bothering me. I wore Camelia yesterday and today. Today, it gave me an awful headache and made me slightly nauseous. Normally I don't notice scents; the MAC lippie scents, for example, fade for me after a short while.
I hate to say it, but the smell reminds me of some icky perfume my grandmother wore when I was a child.
So disappointed; I really wanted to love these. I love the way they look on me and how they don't dry out my lips!

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
^^ I hear you. While I don't love the scent of these, it luckily doesn't bother me either. Scent is so YMMV. Just about everyone on here loves the MAC Tendertones and they make me horribly nauseous. I so wanted those to work for me.
