@TraceyEB Between my boutique order and Nordstrom I ended up with too much. I got the eye palette, all 3 blushes, both polishes and Keep Cool baume. Will probably order Cocoon when Chanel launches. Ugh. But this is my kind of collection. I did order one of the primers but I'm too scared to use it right now because of the alcohol. My skin is not very happy atm so I'll have to wait for awhile before trying it. Since my rosacea hates alcohol that will unfortunately need to be be a rare, special occasion product for me at best. Happy holidays to you & yours too!

I don’t have a photo of it right now but I love there glitter eyeshadows, I use it right over my matte eyeshadow for a little highlight, it’s perfect!

[Sunnysmom]

Which shadows do you love @winniethepoohs? 

[Sunnysmom]

Apologies if my pics look a bit dim, ugh. Let’s blame the phone and not operator error. 🤣 These came so quickly!  The primer is very smooth, very sheer and will be lovely underneath or combined I suspect. I’m excited to try them all this weekend!  This is really only one pass for each blush so there is plenty of pigment. Mauve seems to have a bit more of a glow tho Rose is gorgeous too. The feel reminds me of the giant face quad from the other year. Firm but then also powdery and glides on nicely. Mauve seems to be a little softer in texture. LOVE! The little black mirror attached to the bag… cute! 🌸 

Love the glow in this pic!

@Sunnysmom That might be some of the most beautiful blush I've ever seen!!!

[Sunnysmom]

They’re truly beautiful @PrettyPaint @curlychiquita ! 🤩 Are you guys getting anything from this collection? 

[PrettyPaint]

@Sunnysmom I didn't even know about it until I saw your post! 🙂 If I was to get just one thing, what would you recommend? 

[Sunnysmom]

A blush or the eye palette if you love the color family @PrettyPaint ! Chanel does such a wonderful job with blush but these are very special. The touch of glow makes them so luminous. If you love pinks the eyes are flattering too as apparent on @blackkitty2014 ⬆️ 💞.  I like the primer but not sure if it’s a must considering the existing primer is so similar and the liquid highlighters have a bit more punch plus they are a better value. Imo. 🥰 Others may have differing thoughts! 

[curlychiquita]

They look beautiful, @Sunnysmom!

[Samtian]

@Sunnysmom Ooh those are beautiful! Is the bottom one the primer or something else? And I can assure you it was entirely the phone not operator error!

[Sunnysmom]

Prob both @Samtian ! 😭 You’re too generous to me! 😘 Yes the bottom is the Icy Beige Primer. So smooth so pretty ! 🌸

[Samtian]

@Sunnysmom Is the primer LE?

[Sunnysmom]

Yes so far these 3 are for this collection @Samtian . But the regular primer is so pretty I know you’d be happy with it as well! It’s neutral and has a good glow! If you’re wanting more of that icy pink then the LE is for you! 🥰I  just really like the regular Illuminatrice one tho the LE beige is very nice too!

@Sunnysmom I've been seeing those blushes ALLLL over my IG feed and every time I have to stop and stare at them for a minute.  Those are stunning.

[Sunnysmom]

Ugh same @CookieGirl1 ! They are really lovely. At first I thought do they really need the 2 cool toned shades but now I get the differences for sure. Chanel didn’t mess up with this release! 

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, oh my heavens your swatches are beautiful! You have posted the best look at the blush and primer that I have seen. I'm curious if Rose shows up more pigmented on the skin if applied using a synthetic brush. The videos that I have watched have the reviewer using natural brushes so the effect is less pigmented, making Rose look like more glow and lightly pigmented. Is that what you are seeing when you apply it? Sorry for all the questions!

[Sunnysmom]

Oh good @TraceyEB I’m glad if the swatches show up well! Sometimes it’s hard to tell. Well I used Wayne Goss’s blush brush and then a BK brush the next day so I’m not sure if I saw a difference in them. Hmm. I really applied them lightly too but today I did use a dot of cream blush first and then a light powder. I think I preferred the look using the WG brush. I noticed the glow nicely today.  I’ll see what happens tomorrow as well and report back! Also, I did go in to see the collection today and picked up the Glaciale nail. The sheer pink nail is fun too but tbh both remind me of Londontown Illujminating Nail Concealer.  The Frosty White primer is cute but it’s so funny how the SAs pretty much talked me out of it! 🤣 They apparently don’t think it’s all that especially if you have the original one. So I didn’t get it. It pretty much looked the same that one I thought. The eye quad is very pretty with quite intense cool pinks. They had no tester and only one reserved for someone so I didn’t feel I should take a snap of it. Maybe @blackkitty2014 can show us hers sometime? The Coral blush is gorgeous. I swatched it quickly between the other ones on my back paw. 🤓Forgive! Sheesh my veins are so prominent on my thin skin. Eeks! 🥹 I’ll put it in spoiler. Not pretty. Lol. Blush yes!! These are a few swipes. @blackkitty2014 @Titian06 @Winthrop44 @curlychiquita

Sorry i was swamped. I will try to swatch the eyeshadow today @Sunnysmom @TraceyEB . But if you are not opposed to pink, do get this one. I think this is the prettiest pink Chanel eyeshadow I owned. Not over the top PMG pink, just simple everyday pink 😘

[Titian06]

@blackkitty2014 - Please tag me when you swatch. 🙂

[Titian06]

Your swatches are gorgeous, @Sunnysmom !  The coral is beautiful...the mauve may come home with a friend. 😁

[Sunnysmom]

Yay @Titian06 ! It’s so luminous in the light!! 🤩
