@ChristalM, isn't the Byzance collection just the eyeshadow quads? I'm seeing them also at the Bay and Chanel Canada.  I think the blushes, bloom lipsticks, and loose eyeshadow powders are in the Equinoxe Fall Collection. I think they're due to launch mid-August.

[ChristalM]

@TraceyEB you are right. I called my SDM...they have the eye quads now and the fall collection Aug 14th.

[TraceyEB]

@ChristalM, thanks for confirming! I need to decide on the items I want from the Fall collection.

[ChristalM]

@TraceyEB opps Aug 16th. yeah me too. I need a preorder! I got two of the new quads yesterday and they are beautiful. I will post pics later

[TraceyEB]

@ChristalM, looking forward to seeing what you picked up!

[ChristalM]

Here are some pics. Sadly they are not nearly as pigmented as those other pics make them out to be. I love the gold and red one (308 Parure Impériale)...the other one (318 Parure Vénitienne) is pretty but not a must have for sure. I picked it up only because I had points for it and that peach is super pretty.

[TraceyEB]

@ChristalM, they're very pretty quads! I watched Maria at Night Star Beauty's videos of these quads and she used a dense brush to pack on certain shadows except for those in the Imperiale quad, which was quite pigmented. I have a few Chanel quads with lighter shades and they are on the sheer side (and I wear them in the summer).  Hopefully you'll like them on the eyes. I'm considering the Imperiale quad.

They are very pretty tho sheer @ChristalM . Nice you could use your points! 🌸

[Titian06]

Thanks for swatching, @ChristalM !  They're both pretty, but certainly don't translate from the palette the way I expected.  I doubt I'll get either, but these are the two I've been eying. 

[blackkitty2014]

Thx for posting @ChristalM. They are sheer. Pretty though.🌹

[ChristalM]

@TraceyEB yes that is my understanding, two separate collections. I did read they were both aug 4th but that could be for another country ai guess. 

[Titian06]

@TraceyEB - I watched Hey, It's Jaqueline (sorry if I spelled her name wrong).  She talked about the Equinoxe collection (no products or swatches).  The quads were not included; she didn't even mention them.  Equinoxe is supposed to release August 14.

[TraceyEB]

@Titian06, thanks for letting me know about Hey It's Jackeline's video. The quads are the Byzance Collection; the Equinoxe collection has the loose eyeshadow powders, blush, and lipsticks. Not sure why Chanel launches multiple collections so close to each other. There's also stand alone lipstick in glass packaging on the horizon.

@TraceyEB @Titian06 @ChristalM @Sunnysmom @blackkitty2014 In Angela Van Rose’s latest video she said the lipstick set is actually going to be 500 Euros 😳😳😳and that individual lipsticks will be 150 Euros. 😱🤯

[TraceyEB]

@Winthrop44, never, ever did I imagine that those lipsticks would be that expensive. Wow!

[Sunnysmom]

That’s wild if so @Winthrop44 ! My SA told me around 200 for the set initially but maybe she’s wrong or misunderstood me ! Ugh. Lol. 150 per is just nuttiness if the case! 😭 This better be the glass slipper of all Cinderella glass slippers if so!! Lol I’m working on some clarification.

EDIT. Yup it’s bad lol. $195 each, refill $80, set with 1 lip, 2 refills and leather sleeve is $405. Truly sad about this news! 

[Titian06]

Thanks, @Sunnysmom !  Absolutely ridiculous! 

[Sunnysmom]

I couldn’t be more sad @Titian06 @Winthrop44 @TraceyEB @blackkitty2014 . My SA felt badly for the misinformation! I felt worse! 😭

[blackkitty2014]

Thx you for confirming @Sunnysmom 🌹 I pass.

[Winthrop44]

@Sunnysmom Thanks for the definitive scoop. Ridiculous!

[Titian06]

@Winthrop44 - That must be some super special lipstick! 🤣
