I like giselle as a face for the les beige line, but i'm not sure about the n.5 campaign (for which Nicole Kidman was a perfect choice)

It's the no 5 campaign that I find so boring. It's still better than the Brad Pitt one, but the picture used for the eau premiere seems no different from the les beiges one. It's always the exact same face, just a tan-version of beige, no colour, and the same expression. I so preferred the Nicole one. Or look at Keire for Coco Mademoiselle, it's so different.

I fancy a glorious n.5 campaign with Ines de La Fressange. She is so quintessentially Chanel

without question she is a very beautiful lady. Yet being a Casper, maybe I have suntan envy.....
hahah me to!

I think it's was a business move for them . She is famous face in the south america and when you have such a growing economy you want to have her face for your brand. No surprise really.

Still haven't decided if I want anything from this collection. I am trying to figure out these powders - darker one would be just like a bronzer which I do not need. Lighter one is it too light to be a blush? It's more of a brightening pink powder?

The pink stripe powder is a mystery so far. I'd like it if it's strong enough to show as a light blush but if it's just going to be a brightening powder then I'll have to skip.

The product specialist I work with said the powders are no different then the ones released previously, and not a fit for Casper skin tones.

Does this include the ligh stripey one?
yes, I do remember the stripe from last year. Not sure if it was the same color combo, but I do remember something striped before. Chanel just seems to not carry foundations, etc. for Casper's with pink undertones. I do love their sunblock the most of others out there.

Mine should be here tomorrow, the latest on Tuesday. I will post swatches once they arrive. Remember, Sak's does the goofy shipping that starts as FedEx and ends up being regular mail. Which to me sucks.

Just received the lip balm from saks, I knew it was going to be sheer but on me it's colorless ( iam nc35 ) , but maybe that's because I have pigmented lips It's more pink than peach in the tube but the biggest disappointment to me is that it's not hydrating at all. I put it on and my lips feel tight and weird. The packaging is luxe of course but it's going back.
