The new collection is online at The Bay. Based on my experience, I'd check out in person. What applied well on the back of my hand looked very difference on my eyelids. Looking forward to hearing what you think!

Swatches from Ommorphia.  Seems they are coming on counter on 6/2

and she did a few comparisons to old Illusion d'Ombre:

When I was home in Winnipeg a few weeks ago, my Shoppers opened their brand new, completely renovated Beauty Boutique and they're now carrying Chanel (as well as new releases in brands they normally carry, like Guerlain). They are holding a beauty event in early June and the Bay is holding one in mid-June to coincide with the eyeshadow launch. So your timing is spot on! I'll check out my local counter here in the US next week to see what's in.

@Mochapj, are there Illusion D'Ombres that are worth buying before they disappear? I've heard New Moon is the fan favourite and I can see why by the swatches.

[Mochapj]

@TraceyEB one of the Shoppers close to me carries Chanel and it's always such a treat to go in and redeem Optimum points for makeup 😄

In terms of the Illusion d'Ombres, I have a few.  My personal faves are the ones that came out last summer (Rouge Brûlée and Contraste) for the AW16 collection but in terms of what's still available from the permanent line I really like Illusoire.  

[TraceyEB]

Appreciate the recommendations, @Mochapj. Illusoire looks intriguing! I'm kicking myself for missing Rouge Brule, though I love the eyeshadow palette, eyeliners, and lipsticks from that collection. Looking forward to a stroll past my local Chanel counter this week to see this new collection in person.

Here's the entire AW lineup

A/W 2017 - Available August 4th

[TraceyEB]

I like this idea but concerned the concealer shade limits the choice of palette, assuming the large area is the concealer and the smaller areas are the blush/lip & highlighter.

I really love the look of these but worry about the quality. I am going to keep my eye on Temptalia to see if she reviews them!

[TraceyEB]

Temptalia has posted a review of the Ombre Premiere Longwear Cream Eyeshadows in Scintillance, Pourpre Profound, and Noir Petrole.

[TraceyEB]

Saw this eye look featuring the new Chanel Ombres cream eyeshadows in the eye look gallery posted on Temptalia.

Fyi, @Mochapj @blackkitty2014

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you @TraceyEB. Ugh, it is harder harder to resist placing an order for these.

[Mochapj]

Temptalia has swatches of all of the Ombre Premiere creams and 8 of the powders:

Desert Rouge looks so pretty!

[blackkitty2014]

@Mochapj, why you do this to me?  I dont need any more eyeshadows but i want at least 2 (Terre BruLee and Pourpre Profond). 🙂

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014Those are good ones!! Saw Sabrina from BeautyLookBook posted an IG picture with 2 new Chanel cream shadows and commented "they're so good". Thankfully, most are permanent. 🙂

[blackkitty2014]

I dont have lots of Chanel but i like most of the things i own.  Last year collection was so gorgerous.  I wear cream Rouge Brulee today 🙂 What are you getting @TraceyEB?

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014I wish I got my hands on Rouge Brule but I missed it! Darn!

I don't own any single shadows from Chanel. I have my eye on Poupre Profond, Terre Brule, Silver Pink, maybe Underone, Desert Rouge, and Talpa, though am curious how to/if I can wear Titane as it has a colour shift that looks interesting. At the counter, I want to try the reds first as they would be the hardest for me to mix and match on my own. 🙂

Upcoming fall collection 

[vchotia]

OMG, that nude one looks like Beiges de Chanel, one of my all time fave palettes!

[AMK721]

Wow those colors are gorgeous.  I don't want to think about fall yet but who can resist Chanel.
