@Mochapj@TraceyEB@blackkitty2014  and all, do we have swatches and names of new lips involved in August’s collection or maybe it’s on a back page. 

[Sunnysmom]

@Mochapj Ah thank you so much! Maybe I can now get serious on what I ‘want and need’ !

Gorgeous Cruise Collection, @TraceyEB!  The Soleil Tan de Chanel cream bronzer looks amazing, I am going to look it up!

[TraceyEB]

I hope you like it, @curlychiquita. The texture is light, it blends beautifully, and the result is very natural. I always check bronzers in natural light to ensure they don't look ashy or have an orange undertone.

@TraceyEBI know! I’ve posted photos of it previously a few weeks ago. I called my SA and she said she wasn’t sure if this collection is coming to Canada but given how much hype the ‘3D mascara’ is getting, I’d be shocked if it didn’t. Also, from what I scanned on their site this morning, it looked like only some of the ombré premieres were limited editions.

[TraceyEB]

Hi @Mochapj, it seems I lost track that they all belonged to one collection. I find the launch of the various collections dizzying. I'm ordering the new mascara since it's available to purchase. Happy to buy anything in the US and ship to you. I'm hoping Shoppers will get it...it's too big a collection not to come to Canada. I need to acquaint myself with what's LE and what's permanent.

[Mochapj]

@TraceyEB I agree, it does seem quite soon after Cruise collection. However, I think it’s been almost a month since Cruise came out for US and it seems like Chanel is trying to release something new every month lately.

i ordered the green ombré cream, blue ombré shadow and stick from Selfridges - I’m waiting to hear if the magenta quad is coming to Canada or not because I’m curious about it but want to see it in person, if possible.

ive read a lot of great reviews of the 3D mascara but I think I’m set for black mascara for a while 🙊

which pieces are you considering?

[TraceyEB]

Hi P, I didn't realize so many pieces will be in the regular line, including the mascara. I'm considering both eyeshadow singles, the Vert Metal cream eyeshadow (though bought in Canada or from Selfridges), and the blue shadow/contour stylo. I'm intrigued by the magenta quad though would prefer to see it applied; the other quad would for sure.

[Mochapj]

@TraceyEB I agree. I think that’s been one good thing since Lucia Pica came on; a lot more items are being added to the permanent range.

i was initially interested in the other quad as well but the more I look at it, the more I think it resembles the 9 pan Affresco palette from the Spring launch. Another reason I hope to see the collection in person 😊

[TraceyEB]

It's really true, @Mochapj. Thanks to Chanel, I am well covered in greens and blues. Though, when I see this pic, I feel I have room for a bit more. 🙂

[Mochapj]

The new collection that features the chubby eye sticks (stylo ombré et contour) is now available online at Chanel. Also includes 2 quads, 2 ombré creams, 2 ombré powders and some mascara. I believe it’s called the Eyes collection.

[blackkitty2014]

@Mochapj, @TraceyEB, obviously the whole Sephora developer team must move over and work for Chanel now.  Chanel website has been down since this morning for me.  lol 🙂 Joke aside, the collection does look fun.

More upcoming launches - Apotheosis le Mat de Chanel (August)

[TraceyEB]

Cruise Collection 2018 - Palette Essentielle Ete - 190 Eclat Solaire. Includes a cream blush and 2 cream highlighters. Gorgeous!

[curlychiquita]

The colors are beautiful, @TraceyEB! Thank you for your swatches! 

[TraceyEB]

They really are. I couldn't resist after seeing it in person and having it applied by a Chanel MUA.

[blackkitty2014]

Thx for posting @TraceyEB. I was looking for swatches. It is gorgeous. I got $50 GC from Neiman Marcus. So tempted to get some Chanel product.

[TraceyEB]

I have to admit, @blackkitty2014, I'm smitten with this palette. I only wish the pans were equally divided. I've been using the gold on my eyes, layering it over Bobbi Brown's Sand Dune longwear cream shadow stick for an easy casual look. The blush shade is gorgeous.  🙂

[Sunnysmom]

@TraceyEB Looks so pretty! How to resist it!! Ugg!
