@TraceyEB, i think i need the red lippie for my upcoming vacay.  After all, i need to look good for the fishes. 😉 Edit: I ordered the red lippie with INTHEBAG code for free overnight shipping.  The fishes and i thank you 😉

[TraceyEB]

I ordered the red lippie, too. Thanks for the overnight promo code!! Have fun on your vacay, @blackkitty2014!

[Sunnysmom]

Wow speedy @TraceyEB @blackkitty2014! Yes thank you for code @blackkitty2014! Got mine early today as imagine you did also. You love your goodies?! Trying to hold out on new shadows until in stores etc though so pretty. 

New No.5 lip

La Palette Caractere is so good. No 5 is in it also. Glad I did cave in! Good true true red. A bit warmer on me than normal but it’s probably good for me to change it up! A little cloudy so pic is a little dark. 

[TraceyEB]

Ooooooh!! That compact is SO elegant, @Sunnysmom!! My swatch of No 5 matches yours. It's lovely!

[Sunnysmom]

@TraceyEB It really is. Very sleek! Our swatches do match! It looks amazing on you!! Love it! A bit less blue on me which sometimes happens to me when it’s really a neutral red like I feel this is. 

Here it is compared to No. 3 and No.2 to round out all the comparisons from last year to this year. @blackkitty2014 I definitely see similarities to No. 3. No.5 seems a little lighter and brighter to me. So if you got that one you could probably live without it. MAYBE. lol. Less direct lighting- Top to bottom- No 5, No.3, No.2

More direct lighting. More true to actual shades. Top to bottom- No.5, No.3, No.2

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you so much for all the swatches @Sunnysmom, @TraceyEB.  I have No 3 but not No 2.  Phew!  I'm so relieve that No 3 and No 5 is diff.  My No 5 will come today.  I love No 3 so much that even if No 5 is similar, i'm okay with keeping it too 🙂

[Sunnysmom]

Absolutely @blackkitty201 me too. Do u think it’s similar also? Kind of surprised they didn’t name it No 5 last year you know?! Oh well glad they did now. Makes sense. And this is how they keep us coming back! 😳🤣

[blackkitty2014]

Agree @Sunnysmom.  Now i have to fight the temptation of ordering the highlighter. 😉  I still have a long list of TF lippies i need to buy lol

[Sunnysmom]

@blackkitty2014 Oh man yes the struggle is real! 

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you for the picture @Sunnysmom. I’m so excited now. Unfortunately I won’t be home until late. I have to come in the office today. Sigh! Would you say it’s very similar to No 3? PS I want the highlighter also but I try to holding out since many things will come out soon and I need to save for my upcoming trip

[Sunnysmom]

@blackkitty2014 I will check when I’m back at home also in a little bit and will get back to you. I hear you, me too. I love the highlighter also but I did get last few from them and trying to not lose my mind. Lol. I can’t possibly use up all of my great stuff even if I was going to wear it for the fishies and all of their friends!! 🤣

Comparison of Experience & Legerete

[TraceyEB]

This is what I thought the upper two shades would look like, more peachy than pink

Swatches of the legerete version

[Winthrop44]

Thanks for posting. I had seen several pics of what I thought was Candeur et Experience taken in funny lighting or something. Now I understand!

[TraceyEB]

Thanks for posting, @Mochapj.  I didn't expect the lighter shades to be pink. Still intrigued.

[blackkitty2014]

Thx @Mochapj. I might need this if it makes its way to the States 😂

[TraceyEB]

The Chanel Matsuri Collection is being released in Japan and promoted as a Chanel Red Celebration. The eyeshadow quad is called Legerete et Experience and is apparently the twin to Candeur et Experience. 💕

[Mochapj]

Upcoming quad? Looks similar to Candeur Experience but the two top shades don’t seem to be in the right place and seem lighter

[Mochapj]

@TraceyEB the description indicates it’s a Japan exclusive collection that seems to translate to Red Celebration.

i think it’s related to some sort of local festival

@Mochapj they are celebrating the mid autumn festival in Asia
