re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

I just bought the chanel blush in Imprevu and it is gorgeous! No buyers remorse here. It's so shimmery, coppery, bronzey without looking dirty. It's amazing and perfect for summer. So glad I finally got my hands on it.

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

^^ Thanks, I'm excited!

Can't wait to try them myself! Do you remember if the lipsticks have any fragrance?

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

I would love to know about fragrance too as I am very sensitive...I can't wear the Hydrabases because of the fragrance and I can barely tolerate the RAs. I'd love to be able to wear these.

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

I did not discern any noticeable fragrance in these, but then I am not too sensitive. If there is any fragrance, it is very mild. What I recall from trying these yesterday is that there was almost no scent at all.

The texture is lightweight but opaque, and very smooth.

^^ I third that! Can't wait to check these out! Have any of you tried their new beige liner?

 

[Miss QQ]

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

I tried the beige liner, and I love it but haven't bought it. I love their lip liners.

So excited for this launch next week. I saw temptalia had a review up and was inspired by her beautiful pix.

I've heard it even looks real nice on fair skintones, which I definately am. Anyways, thank you for any imput you have!

I really like it! I am NC15 and most bronzers are quite dark and orange for me, but with this one I don't have to worry. It's very natural looking and atleast on me, not a bit orange! Yay!

I buff it in and it goes on so creamy so one doesn't have to be expert in blending to use this one. And because it is so subtle too! It's also convenient if you have some tanning lines for example on shoulders/decoltee and you want to put a tube top you can buff this on the lighter parts of your skin to make it even. Works for me!

I use it with the 190 or a kabuki brush. Hope this helps!

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

I saw this on temptalia as well! Am loving the bag and buttons!

Re: Chanel Rouge Coco Hydrating Creme Lip Colour!!!

I read Temptalia's review. She said that there is a light vanilla rose scent. Sounds good to me.

I like Mademoiselle and Legende from her swatches, but at the moment, I am more interested in getting a beige shade. My plan is to get a beige one first, and pick up another one later on. Or, whatever that calls my name when I see these lipsticks at my counter for the first time!

OMG!! I'm soo jealous!!
When I went to my counter to pick up my goodies from Les Impressions I asked for this gorgeous lippies and I was told no Rouge Cocos for me until april

.

As if it wasn't enough having to wait ages for Spring Color Forecast, now I must wait for my Rouge Cocos almost two more months!!!

I've been so busy I haven't had any time to check further info or reviews. I'm rushing now to Temptalia's.
Yay!!

re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Disclaimer: This is going to be a huge post. I've been extra busy, then DH took me to a Valentine's weekend escapade and I came back to find you've had lots of fun and didn't want to miss it!!!
Finally last week I was able to pick up my goodies from Les Impressions!!!

I'm soo happy!! Here's what I've got:

Empreinte de Chanel highlighter,
Kaska Beige quad,
Torrent Ombre d'eau,
Imprevu Joues Contraste,
Futile l/g,
Maline l/g,
Particulieire n/p,
Innatendu n/p,
Khaki Dore crayon yeux,
Slate e/s,
Sillage e/s,
Trace e/s and
Canari aqualumiere gloss.

I've got no lippies since wasn't that impressed with the shades and am way more excited for the Coco Rouge ones!!

My Soleil Tan in Sunkissed must wait cause is sold out at my counter and didn't ask them to keep one for me.

Hopefully they'll restock and then I'll get it.

I've been unable to use anything cause the OC collector in me needs to photograph it all before any use and last week was unable to. Now I'm unable to cause of the weather, so grey and cloudy...

Isn't it gorgeous?? Chanel Joues Contraste are THE best blushes in this universe. You won't ever regret buying them.

Thanks! I'm always worried of bronzers looking orange on me. I'm really leaning towards buying it. I'm still going to see if any counter near me has it so I can try first, but I'm wanting it so bad!

re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

Enjoy your huge haul, Hypathya!

The spring collection is awesome! It's a pity I never got to see Slate because my counters don't have it. Instead, we get Sand.

Counting down to Rouge Coco now!

We will wait with you here!

I'm not sure when my counters will get Rouge Coco but I'm guessing March.
