@TraceyEB would you happen to know if the es in the Nature Getaway set, Rose in Hand, is similar to your Rose Charnel single? 

[TraceyEB]

@Winthrop44, hi! The shades look different. Rose Charnel is a matte salmon shade (my swatch below).  I looked at Abby Bliss White's video for the Nature Getaway set and Rose In Hand is a satin pink with gold flecks, shown well in the eyeshadow pan below as well as applied to the eyes.

@TraceyEB  Thanks very much. I guess my confusion about the base color stems from Chanel calling the one in the set “pink coral”. Oh well, with new blushes supposedly coming up in August I’ll probably manage to move on! 😆

[TraceyEB]

@Winthrop44, pink coral is not how I would describe it... I passed on the bags. I just posted swatches of the new blushes...an August launch you say...?

[Winthrop44]

@TraceyEB  Just something I saw mentioned, don’t know how accurate that is.

I just found out they are discontinuing the Ombre Premiere cream eyeshadows and Im devastated...does anybody have a Chanel sales associate that I could reach out to to try and help me find the shade Undertone..please let me know!  thanks

[Sunnysmom]

Did you locate one yet @cmcalcag ? It seems like Bloomingdales keeps some shades around quite awhile and you may find one through them? Or did you contact some of the larger boutiques like in Florida, Chicago etc? My local Cal. boutique sells through their inventory so quickly but I can maybe ask them if you haven’t found one yet.Good luck! 🌸

Oh I love both... Would like to try 😊

[TraceyEB]

@Mochapj, I like the lavender and green quad...

[Winthrop44]

Thanks @Mochapj. Am I the only boring one who isn't excited by these?

[Mochapj]

I’m into the green and lavender one @Winthrop44 but honestly the pink one looks like any number of palettes Chanel has already done before. I do find the timing a bit odd because the green lavender palette looks more like a spring release than anything that would come out soon.

I’ve mostly checked out on Chanel since Lucia Pica stopped creative directing their makeup… it’s gotten a bit too boring, IMO. Although the last year she was there it was too repetitive with the reds all the time 🤣

[blackkitty2014]

Thx @Mochapj . I might interest in the green and purple too. Thinking 🤔 but it’s an odd combo.  I think it should be a crime for any brand to put out more than 2 pink quads/quints combo per 5 yrs 😂🤣 By now I’m in a pink eyeshadow comas. No just no! 😂😘

[Winthrop44]

@blackkitty2014 @TraceyEB @Mochapj Does Lilas Poudre work for you? I’ve decided it just does nothing for me so that’s why I’m not excited by this quad. Maybe I’m wrong but this looks very similar? I’d be happy to hear if anyone thinks it’s different.

[blackkitty2014]

@Winthrop44 I’m glad you call this out. I didn’t pickup Lilas Poudre.  The swatches didn’t wow me. I need to see how this quad swatch before picking it up. 

[Winthrop44]

@blackkitty2014 Will be interested to hear your thoughts. I think I'd have to find it pretty different from Lilas to go for it.

[Mochapj]

@Winthrop44 I didn’t bother to pick up any of the relaunched singles because I just never reach for singles.

I do agree that the shade looks similar, though for me personally the appeal of the quad is the green because green is a colour that doesn’t get as much love from brands as many others 🤣

[blackkitty2014]

I’m with you @Mochapj . The mustard green look interesting but we’ll see how it swatch 😘

[Mochapj]

lol @blackkitty2014 

I've been in a pink coma since Naked 3 😵

[Sunnysmom]

You guys are cracking me up @blackkitty2014 @Mochapj . 😆This green and purple threw me for a loop! Pretty tho! Agree on spring stuff. They seem to be reversing shades and seasons past few!

[Titian06]

No, you are not alone, @Winthrop44 ! 😘
