Thanks so much for all of those swatches. I really want that eye color. 

[playingdressup]

Its really pretty! I think I need the lipstick to go with it!

[meganlisa]

We should share makeup...

[meganlisa]

Gorgeous!  Tempting!  I might get the eye color (and that highlighter is so lovely).

Thanks!

I got both the nail colors yesterday - Vamp and Rose Fusion. I very rarely even paint my nails, but these colors were so pretty and I loved how they looked on Karen from MBB and Temptalia. I did swatch the Rouge Noir lipstick and the eyeliner - both of which left me mostly underwhelmed. I will check out the lipstick sometime again next month.

But actually, Chanel has released an interim collection called Rouge Allure. The lipsticks are very very pretty! 

[meganlisa]

I'll check out the lipsticks!  Thanks!

I placed an order from Von Maur for the illusions de ombres, the eyeliner in Rouge Noir, and one of the new glossimiers - the rose colored one. I won't get my order until the first week of Nov since they are having a GWP and a Chanel raffle so I had the SA hold my order. The eyeliner looks like a burgundy/black - I'm excited to try it out. The gloss is very girly - pink with sparkles; a good topper for the holidays. They hadn't got the eyeshadow quad in yet so I don't know what that looks like in person.

Niki, do you know if the gwp will be online, or is it in store only?

[niki172]

It's in store only (I think) and its a Von Maur tote, but usually they throw in some pretty decent Chanel samples wrapped up in a nice little sheer material bag tied with a Chanel ribbon. The raffle is in store and I'm not sure what the prizes are - I was just told a raffle and since I never win I didn't ask. They don't sell Chanel on their website - you have to call a store to place an order if you're not near one. Free FedEx shipping and gift wrap though!

Thx Niki! 

[meganlisa]

Thanks for the thoughts!  The eyeliner looks gorgeous.  Darker than the illusions de ombres?  I so don't need more makeup but this collection is so tempting!

[niki172]

depending on how light you apply eyeliner (obviously don't gouge the eye area) I'd say it's darker.

[meganlisa]

Thanks!  These are lovely...

I just got some pieces last night. On first swatch, the highlighter is decently pigmented with a pinky, cool undertone. I love all of their illusion de ombres and this one in Rouge Noir is no exception. It's a pigmented purple that's beautiful for the vampy look. I got a few nail polishes but only cause I needed a staple dark polish. But they're nothing to right home about. Let me know if you want some swatches. ☺️

[meganlisa]

I'm considering the illusion de ombres.  If you get a chance I would LOVE to see swatches!  Thanks!

I bought Golden Sun a couple weeks ago, and it is amazing. I don't have a swatch of it, but I'm wearing it here:

It looks so good on you! I wanted this but was hesitant as I can't see it in store and would have to order it. I have super similar colouring. I may have to get this now!
