I noticed the same thing @allthingsglam with mac blushes , i really wanted to get taj mahal as my first blush from them but what the heck, that palette was a steal and if i love them i guess i will be a nars fan. and also you cant beat the price especially with f+f code

Coeur Battant, Goodbye Emmanuelle, Cambodia. Coeur Battant is a little bit hard to swatch on your hand bc it's matte and so pigmented (like a lot sticks to your finger) definitely touch your brush to this one SUPER lightly at first lol. Goodbye Emmanuelle is gorgeous too, feels very smooth. Cambodia is lovely, it arrived perfect (I was so paranoid about it being shattered!) and the texture is super buttery, I love it! I like Nars shadows but a lot of them I do find to be drier in texture, so this formula is right up my alley, I think I'm going to wear it tonight. I also love that the external packaging has the Guy Bourdin on it

SOOOOO pretty, thx for pics! i saw at store and love CB!! i have both TF narcissist + C fantastic so i think i may be at my hot pink limit or is there no such thing?!?

i love using a chanel 7 brush (one of the only chanel brushes i like) with them, works better than any other brands/type/style brushes for the high pigment - exhibit A may be a good choice for me, i wonder if it has the special red GB writing on the case since it is part of perm collection??

one of the beauty blogs said the new e/s texture is like chanel illusion d'ombre, are they that creamy? thx!!

enjoy!!

really pretty!!! did you end up getting accent from C? i cant remember but they could look pretty together! from pics they have a similar tone!!
mine accent arrives on tuesday. i would not say they are similar at all. accent is more brown mauve and this is pink with a hint of peach , but they might look nice together. accent for contour and this as a blush

They don't quite feel like the Illusion d'Ombres to me but they feel a lot like Dior eyeshadows, really smooth and creamy. Dior shadows are some of my fav!

These pics are so gorgeous. I'm not really wanting new eye shadows, but I'm curious to try this new formula.

Thanks so much for the swatches!! At the moment, my list is:

Coeur Battant
Day Dream
Goodbye, Emmanuelle
Full Frontal
Mississippi Mermaid

If may switch out MM for another one of the shadows. Cambodia looks great, but I have Mac Coppering and I honestly don't use it that much, so I feel like I'd be better off with one of the other shades.
