I’m so jealous @TraceyEB  Enjoy your pretties. 🥰 

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014, sheer luck that my Canadian SA confirmed my order on the day the store had this promotion, so I added 2 more eyeshadows to the mix. Puts the price closer to the US price + I can take advantage of a spectacular loyalty program. Passing on the Byzance quads also helped to justify the purchase (or so I'm convincing myself). 😂

[Winthrop44]

@TraceyEB Wow, that's fantastic! I hope you love it all!

[TraceyEB]

@Winthrop44, it's sheer luck and makes it a little more affordable as high end cosmetics in Canada can be really expensive compared to the US! Can't wait to try everything. I happened on a points redemption event at the same store when the oversize blush palettes launched with the Spring collection and I cashed in everything I had and felt like I was stealing from the store!

[Sunnysmom]

Stop it @TraceyEB ! You’re so lucky to get to use 20%!! How in the world does Chanel allow that?! Happy for you!! 🥰

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, Chanel is included in discounts and promotions at Canadian department stores. Not sure why. It's needed because otherwise high end cosmetics are almost too expensive to buy at regular price in Canada. The discount puts it closer to US regular price. However, there's a loyalty program at Shoppers that is exceptional, which enhances the purchase. Luckily, I'll be in town later this week so I added a two more eyeshadows because of the discount.

[Sunnysmom]

That’s fantastic @TraceyEB ! For loyalty and for your wallets! Agree with @itsfi , no reason to know why! 💞

(PS also apologies to all for the bombardments. Too much excitement for this silly collection from my end I suppose. 🙃)

"Chanel is included in discounts and promotions at Canadian department stores. Not sure why." No need to know why @TraceyEB ‌‌ 😂 Just go, go, gooooooo! I'm excited to see what you pick up. I'm hemming and hawwing at the eyeshadows but y'all are making it hard to pass on them with your hauls and swatches. 🛍

[TraceyEB]

@itsfi, you are so right about the discount! 😂 I'm trying to be judicious with my purchases, having passed on so much but these eyeshadows are different enough to intrigue me. Curious to see what/if you try after we politely bombard this space swatching our purchases!

[Sunnysmom]

What are you thinking about picking up @itsfi ?! Cool collection! 

[itsfi]

It might be easier to answer what I'm not getting @Sunnysmom! 🤣 There's a long list of things but I haven't really had the time or much energy to put the effort into thinking through what I definitely want to pick up vs what's just really, really pretty. The good news there is that I've not made (many) impulse purchases - hahaha! Well, at least not in the beauty space. 😬 But between you and a couple other folks here (ahem, @blackkitty2014 @Mochapj @TraceyEB), I'm sure all the swatches will make whatever list I have that much longer. 😅 Ummm, thank you?!!! 💸💸💸

[Sunnysmom]

Ha I get it @itsfi . Smart! I’m sure you have lots going on too as I think you said you were doing some renovations as well? Ugh. Fun but also ugh! 😭

[itsfi]

@Sunnysmom, paint cards sure do provide lots of ideas and inspiration for shades for lipsticks, blush, eyeshadow, etc. 

[Sunnysmom]

That’s so true @itsfi ! More fun too probably! 😆I don’t think I was ever so pained trying to pick out inside and outside paint colors- so many teeny variances in shades of whites/ greys etc! 😭 Will be fun to hear how your projects progress! 💞

Equinoxe de Chanel collection now available at Nordstrom and Bloomingdales.

[Titian06]

Thanks, @TraceyEB !  I've been stalking various sites (which I never do 😄 ), but hadn't checked yet this afternoon.

I purchased Bloom 152 &154 and the eyeshadows in 402 & 404.  They're supposed to arrive next week on my mom's birthday.  Think I'll call her and let her know what I'm getting for her birthday! 🤣

@Sunnysmom @blackkitty2014 @Winthrop44 

Edit:

Chanel has the lipstick, eyeshadow, and blush.

Nordstrom has the lipstick and eyeshadow.

Bloomingdale's has the blush and the eyeshadow.

Edit2:

Yea, I bought both blushes.  My turn to suck it up for science! ⚗🔬

[itsfi]

Ooooh, I can't wait to see and hear what you think of 402 and 404 @Titian06! 

[Titian06]

@itsfi - I can't believe I bought all this stuff! 🤣  Really looking forward to the eyeshadows!

[Sunnysmom]

So excited for you @Titian06 !! Haha that’s a riot. She will love it!! 🤣🥰 I had fomo and picked up 154 along with my blush and it’s a beautiful oxblood shade on. I’m excited to see what you think about the shadows! Too funny that it all landed in stores when they thought was going to be in Sept. never fails. Poor SAs. I feel for them. 

[smacky2008]

Saks has the blush, eyeshadow, and lipstick too! I’ve been stalking everywhere 🤣

[Titian06]

Thanks for sharing, @smacky2008 ! 💖💖💖
