Thank you for the swatches, @Mochapj. Are there any standouts in this collection to you? Do you have any impressions of the products yet?

[Mochapj]

@lachaton So I bought Rose Lamé early when I saw it pop up on the Bay a few weeks ago and I’ve worn it a bunch of times since. I liked it enough that when the rest of the collection launched I picked up another pot with my preorder as a backup. It is a spot on dupe for an eyeshadow I used to love from Too Faced called Satin Sheets.

that said, I’ve only worn the pressed eyeshadows once (yesterday) and have worn the highlight a few times.

 I think the highlighter is exceptional, as well as Rose Lamé. It’s really hard to capture what is special about RL on camera, but it’s champagne, gold, peach and pink all mixed together. I think the pressed shadows are nice and they wear well but I think their primary appeal is the embossing, if I’m completely honest. Outside of the Electrum shade, I don’t think the others are anything we haven’t seen before, though the quality is good.

@Mochapj I had initially decided to pass on Rose Lame, so your thoughts are very helpful! (I also loved Satin Sheets.) I quite like the cream shadows from Chanel for an easy to wear eye-look, but this one just didn't look like anything special to me. Your description of it sounds much more appealing. 

Your eye look is gorgeous! The 4 shades look great together. I may end up adding Electrum to my collection.

Another look

@Mochapj, @TraceyEB, that 9 pan eyeshadow palette will come home with me 😉 Look at the gold and the red I love the first one.

[TraceyEB]

Be still my heart. I saw part of the 9-pan in one of Chanel's IG stories - the red and deep blue shades and what looks like silver.  And a rose lipstick, which Chanel does so well. Love it all!

[Sunnysmom]

Dear lord. Dead. 

[Mochapj]

Looks like another 9 pan is coming for spring next year

From Beauty Almanac, product details for Le Libre Maximalisme de Chanel.  Launches NOV 2. Update AVAILABLE NOW on Chanel direct.

[Sunnysmom]

Here is new Epitome Velvet Extreme , Ideal Velvet Extreme and No.5 Velvet. ( I swatched colors Extreme Velvet Extreme and Unique Velvet a few weeks ago if anyone needs them ) Epitome is beautiful pinky red. Ideal and No 5 are very similar colors tho I prefer velvet formula personally. No.5 is also a little lighter and a bit more sheer. Pigment is great on both formulas. @TraceyEB@blackkitty2014Top to bottom -Epitome, Ideal, and No.5

Stop enabling me @Sunnysmom 😉 They are all gorgerous.  Thx for the swatches.  I'm wearing No 5 today.  It's a pretty strawberry red on me 😉
