Did you see the Perles et Fantasies Highlighter while you were there? I wonder if someone could tell me how it compares to the Dior Glowing Gardens and the Burberry White highlighter (texture and "sparkle" -wise)

[meganlisa]

It wasn't out yet.  I did just get the Perles highlighter in the mail but I'm not sure I can touch it (not yet at least!).  It's so pretty....

[DaintyDiva]

You made me giggle for a good minute 😄

I understand perfectly.

I was just on Chanel direct now. I wanted to use last month's code "deluxe" to get a mini lipstick, but it was invalid. So without much incentive I might wait to buy it personally from Nordies next week. I would never return a limited item (unless it was rotten or something) so it would be nice to see it in person before making the commitment. Meanwhile I have my pink Glowing Gardens ❤️ 😉

[meganlisa]

I'll probably be able to touch this one tomorrow...but not today.  It is cooler than the Dior pink which has a gold tint to it.  The big question I have is whether the white has the same gold as Camelia de Plumes (which also looks white until you swatch it).  Once I get up my nerve...I will post.  For now, I'll just stare.  It's so pretty!

[AnneMCC]

Oh, I was going to post on the Limited Edition thread and ask you to swatch both side by side! My 'beauty OCD' (not a real diagnosis of course) will not allow me to touch either one hahaha, I'm so bad. I have both. Trying to decide if I want/need both. Wondering how they will look in comparison. But. Can't. dip. brush. 😮

[meganlisa]

I just can't....not yet....

[AnneMCC]

Meganlisa you will be our hero if you can bring yourself to swatch it, hehehe!

You'd think Chanel would make it similar to Camelia de Plumes since that was the one so wildlly popular, right?

[Anewxa]

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!

[vchotia]

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.

[meganlisa]

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!!
