And ofcourse I will eagerly await for your thoughts and swatches esp with camelia and dior pink side by side...and ill probably pick up the chanel with the dior anyway.. so much for my low/no buy this month 😕

[meganlisa]

My January low buy was a bust.  Good news, I'm now not planning on buying anything (or much) until July or so....

[Anewxa]

Im telling myself this until my birthday month May..but then the april sephora sale happens and the summer collections roll in along with sephora favorites and then its all a bust. Unless i cut myself from the online world like when I was preg was too busy with morning sickness to really look at stuff lol..

I don't know for how long this will apply, but I placed an order with Chanel last week using the free Rouge Coco Mademoiselle sample lipstick code someone posted on here (thanks!)

Not only did I get the Mademoiselle sample, Chanel also sent a surprise sample of the lipstick Pirate and the skin care samples I chose during checkout were not packettes, but deluxe sample-sized tubes!

I posted this in the deals thread. Had no idea you would get extras! I just tried it and it's not working. I'm not sure if it's expired or if it's not working due to the free overnight shipping. Probably for the best, lol!

[Ispend2much6]

Vchotia, I remember the site didn't accept the code at first for me either.  I think it was accepted once I typed it in all cap's, but I might be remembering incorrectly.  I got free shipping, but not overnight.

Is this new? I just saw it on the nordstrom site (checking out that holiday collection again).

[Ispend2much6]

This has been on Chanel's website for awhile.  They also have one set that includes two additional lipsticks and two additional polishes.

One fun fact- I do order from Chanel's website every couple of months.  Because of this, they give me extra samples when I order from their site and every quarter I get an unexpected package of samples in the mail!

[meganlisa]

Good to know!  And thanks for clarifying on the set.  I seemed to miss it...

[Gwenhwyfar]

Has anyone seen the re-release of Le Vernis 'Rouge Noir' available anywhere yet? I can't seem to find it and it's a priority on my list!

[malday]

I'm not sure Nordstrom will be getting it. It looks like they have Vamp listed under the holiday collection instead of Rouge Noir 😞 Let me know if you find it anywhere though!

[niki172]

Von Maur has it! If you don't have one near you I'd be more than happy to PM you a ph# and the name of a great SA.

[Gwenhwyfar]

I have no idea what that is, but I would appreciate a PM of the info in case I decide to go that route. I'm hoping it will show up at Nordstrom, but I don't even know when it is supposed to be released!

[Vineetha]

As far as I know US isn't getting Rouge Noir NP instead Vamp 18 from perm lineup will take its place!!

[meganlisa]

Anyone have items from the Noir collection?  Thoughts on any must haves?

[sister13]

I think the rouge noir eyeshadow is a must.  I was sorely tempted by the deep red/black gloss and the rouge noir eye pencil and all the polishes but limited myself to the eyeshadow. Here it is from last night with flash. It does not look at all purple on me irl though, just in the picture.  It's lovely and effortless smoky eye, this is why I got it.  

[meganlisa]

Missed this!  Just saw it and love it.  Really lovely.  Thank you!!!

I got the Coups De Minuit highlighter and illusion d'ombre. I haven't tried the highlighter on my face yet, but it swatches very nicely, it feels very silky. The color it gives is a soft pinkish highlight on my skin tone. I believe it will give a subtle glow that is much more sheen than shimmer or glitter. Im a fan of soft highlighters since I've got some rough skin texture.

The illusion d'ombre is such a lovely color. And it feels extra soft in the pot. Maybe it has just been a while since I've had a brand new one, but I think it feels smoother than previous ones. With the first swatch, it produces a nice dusty eggplant color, it layers nicely for more intense purple/burgundy color. I don't have anything quite like it.. The row of swatches is (L-R) Urban Decay Rockstar, Tom Ford Enchanted dark color, Kiko Metallic Shine Eyeshadow in Strong Chocolate, Maybelline Pomegranate Punk, Chanel Elcosion dark color, one swatch of Rouge Noir, three layers of Rouge noir

This is one layer vs three layers

Haven't quite figured out how to photograph highlighters!!! There is a finger swatch and brush swatch between the black lines.

[pixiedust2]

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...
