@TraceyEB I think it will be versatile. The tester seemed creamier than the other ombré premieres I own (it was more like an a actual cream product than powder/cream hybrid) and I think it would sheer to a beautiful teal.

Thanks for the encouragement, @Mochapj! I'll ask to have Verderame applied it at the counter. Interesting that it may be more creamy than the current Ombre Premiere formula.

I love Chanel products. French products are better than Americans.

Ha! I disagree on that though i adore Chanel as well 😉

[TraceyEB]

Stopped into Shoppers today to inquire about the Neapolis launch. Spied a product page that showed approx 5 shades in the eyeshadow palette linked to shades in other Chanel palettes and shadow singles. For example, the gold shade was linked to Antique Bronze eyeshadow single; the blue linked to a blue in Road Movie, etc. I hope they are complementary shades (or Spring versions of the shades) and not exact dupes.

The Bay had a small display of the collection out for pre-order though this location will NOT have the eyeshadow palette. The MUA told me only 10 Bay Stores will be getting the eyeshadow palette.

A few comparisons from Temptalia They don’t seem like exact dupes, so I wonder if what you saw in the book was their version of, ‘if you don’t have this, use this instead...’

[TraceyEB]

Thanks for posting comparison swatches. I'm starting to think I saw the " these shades are close" suggestions. That the shades are lighter in the palette adds to the versatility of this palette with other releases.

All these swatches make me want to order the palette (liked i need more green and blue ;)).  I'm waiting for more reviews.  The palette might be the only item i get in January (and maybe the red matte lipstick).

[Mochapj]

@TraceyEB that’s VERY interesting. It doesn’t look similar in ommorphia’s swatches, but it does in Silverkis’ although opacity is weaker. And the green looks really similar to empreinte du desert

Swatches of the eye palette and ombre premiere from the Neapolis collection from Ommorphia:

So is Verderame more olive rather than teal?

[Mochapj]

@Winthrop44 tough to say. I always find her swatches lean overly yellow.

Swatches of the Neapolis lip powders

Blanc collection 2018

[Sunnysmom]

@Mochapj Or anyone- has anyone seen the names and descriptions of the new spring lipsticks?! ( Not lip powders. ). As usual, tough to tell on their site! 

[TraceyEB]

Here they are!

Spoiler

[Sunnysmom]

@TraceyEB@Mochapj etc , i caved! Couldn’t help it. I ordered a lip powder, lipstick and the green single shadow so I’ll post swatches as soon as I receive them! 

[TraceyEB]

Where did you purchase the pieces from, @Sunnysmom? I just saw a display today and the counter was taking preorders.

[Sunnysmom]

@TraceyEB I went ahead and ordered from Chanel site as the one red lip I wanted was LE so I figured I better just do it that way. My Nordstrom said they will have next week so I will go look at it all then too for colors I was on the fence about and will try my hardest to resist! Did you do pre order?! I truly and going to be a bit more discerning as it’s just ridic how much stuff I have accumulated. Not happy with myself! 

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, I'm reserving the eyeshadow palette and expect to pick up the blush, the green eyeliner, and at least one lip balm/powder set. I'm really taken by this collection. I'm looking to add unique pieces in 2018 and enjoy what I already own. I, too, have too much!
