The last time I was at a counter, I tried one of the essentialle palettes. It was the correct shade of concealer for me and the other shades are very pretty so I picked it up. I keep it in my purse and have used it a few times to touch up or even when running late. It works well. It’s nice if the colors work for you. I think it’s easy and handy to use.

Thank you. That is how I would use it because I find I do need to touch up both concealer and blush. Planning to order the retractable concealer brush as well because I don't want to tug on the under eye area.

My order is on hold now too. Not sure what it is on hold for.

Whenever I order from Neiman Marcus I receive an email stating that my order is on hold. You need to call them, because it is likely they are missing or need to confirm some payment info. Because my billing is international I always have to phone and confirm my postal code.

Did you get Posie stylo? I'm tempted but not sure if it will work on our lips lol.
I ordered it but haven’t received it yet. Did you end up ordering it? I got my blush thing today and I completely take back what I said about not needing both that and the tweed blush. Now that I can look at them side by side in person I can say they are not very similar at all! The tweed blush is more vibrant, and yes, definitely more rosy. They are both very beautiful and my new position is that everyone actually does need both! Luckily my blush thing, while scented, is not overly smelly. @Monsy I am sorry you received the highly fragranced one that was meant for me.

The Tweed Blush was part of my order but based on the Sephora Community pic, I decided it was too coral and that I would send it back. But now it sounds like I am going to like it.

On the phone right now with Chanel, because they have no way to ask UPS for a signature delivery. Without one, the UPS truck will leave the package on the street where it will be stolen. They told me that that could only be changed after the shipment. I told them it must be changed prior to shipment. It kind of amazes me that they have no signature delivery service.

I’m sure I’ve signed for UPS packages. That makes no sense.

My order is on hold now too. Not sure what it is on hold for.

I called them and they said it was ordered prior to the weekend so it's "on hold" until it can be processed on Monday. And they said there is a delay between processing it and removing the "on hold" notification.

I would much prefer Fedex but it's not an option they said. If I were in a locale where it was safe to leave, it would be preferable to NOT have to be there to sign for it. But this is the opposite situation. I'm surprised they use different delivery services in different regions.
