Thanks for posting this @shimmerbait I find it extremely fascinating that they made this with a 3D printer.  Wow!  Think about the massive fortune they could make if they churned these out by the hundreds on a printer...

Omg that’s me! 😂 glowgettter on insta. Can’t wait for this mascara 

[shimmerbait]

Anyone still looking for the Harmony of Powders? It’s available on Macy’s website .. surprised to see it up at a department stores and esp not a higher-tier locale like Saks or Barney’s

I just read that Chanel is going into Ulta???

I did some digging about this in the financial news; apparently a wholly-owned subsidiary of Chanel has a 20% stake in Ulta, which is ‘technically’ a holding company. Part of this strategy is due to Chanel’s desire to appear less stuffy and be more ‘gram worthy and to help grow Ulta’s prestige footprint. Because Sephora is owned by a different corporation made up of different, awesome prestige brand families(LMVH), it’s somewhat unlikely we would ever have/will ever get Chanel Beauty at Sephora. It’s worth a Google if you are interested in the business side of fashion.

@heylady14 I love this "backstage" business stuff... thanks for the info!

@Mochapj  I saw that also.  Not sure if it's in store only or online also, at least to begin with.  It's an exciting prospect though, to use points for Chanel!

Makeup? 😮

It's not on their brand list online, but if you go to ulta dot com/Chanel, fragrances are available only in select stores. I'd never noticed it wasn't online before, but now that I think about it, I saw a Chanel fragrance poster several months ago at the one store in my area that comes up on the store locator, so if it's just fragrance, that's already happened.. but makeup coming too would be *awesome*!

[Mochapj]

@RGbrown yes, makeup.

The link I posted talks about how makeup is going to be going into select Ultas this year (in addition to the fragrance)

ETA: sorry, I just saw my link got removed. Edited it back in so it's not a direct link anymore.

[RGbrown]

@Mochapj yeah, the link wasn't there when I saw first saw the post. Thanks!

I seriously doubt any of my stores will make the cut for Chanel makeup, especially early on, but here's to hoping they decide to roll it out wider than I've assumed they will. I'm kinda thinking they'll be more selective with the makeup than the fragrance since the initial launch is just one store per the article.

Les beiges 2018

[katkapivarci]

I haven’t heard anything about this new product that poped up on the (US) website. Have anybody seen any swatches? Can’t find any info on them. And the price is pretty good (well for Chanel).

I bought the one in the lightest color.  I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of it.  I'm generally a shade 20 in Chanel foundation and the lip blush that I brought barely shows up on me.  

It also feels a little bit oily, which was not something I expecting.  That feeling goes away on the cheeks really quickly.  On the lips, it feels super drying at first, but that goes away pretty quickly.

@Halcyon7, @katkapivarci sheer lip blushes never show up well on me, regardless of how dark the shade.  Based on your review, @Halcyon7, and the swatches @seaofcowards referenced, it will be a pass for me, too.

[katkapivarci]

@Halcyon7 Thank you for sharing your experience. I was contemplating on getting the lightest shade but as you I’m 20 in foundations and I was thinking it might be too light - now I know. And @seaofcowards mentioned the swatches on the britishbeautyblogger and I didn’t like those either. So I think it’s a pass. It’s a shame thou because the price is good.

For Canadians - The Harmony of Powders and Dernieres Neiges Collection is available at HBC online!

[AnneMCC]

Does anyone know if the Harmony powder is coming to department store Chanel counters? I really want to try it in person...

[Mochapj]

Stopped by my counter to pick up my preorder - ended up swatching the 2 LE Ombre Premiere singles as well as the Les 4 Ombres palette that is part of the Dernieres Neige collection Blooming Rose, Nuage Bleu, Premiere Eclosion quad

[playingdressup]

These didn't really catch my eye from the product photos, but I like the look of your swatches. Especially that blue! @Mochapj Thanks for swatching!
