@TraceyEB Thanks. Have you figured out yet whether or not this Harrods collaboration will be coming to all countries and serve as the holiday collection everywhere, or if there will be a separate holiday collection elsewhere?  I’m kind of confused about that.

[TraceyEB]

@Winthrop44, I confirmed with my Canadian MUA that the "Harrods" collection is Chanel's holiday collection and is launching in Canada on Oct 16. Now to confirm with our contacts in the US.

@TraceyEB Thanks! 😊

[blackkitty2014]

Oh no! It’s gonna be expensive for me since I like many in this collection. Thx for posting @TraceyEB 🌹

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014, it will be even more expensive now that I added swatches. We need more money, and we're not even out of Sept yet!!

I picked up a few of the new lip shades with some Ulta rewards and only had to “pay” for one! Woohoo! That was fun and glad I was hoarding them for awhile! 🤣  I do like this formula and don’t find these shades too drying. I did apply a tinted balm over them after a bit. 228 appears warmer in my pic than it really is. It’s more neutral irl and on. 224 and 226 are both cool shades and very pretty.

They’re pretty, @Sunnysmom, and a great use of your points!

[Sunnysmom]

Thanks guys! @curlychiquita @Titian06 @blackkitty2014 @Winthrop44 . Those point deals usually don’t work out in my favor! 🤣

[Titian06]

Wow, lovely colors and great deal, @Sunnysmom ! 😍

[Winthrop44]

@Sunnysmom Very pretty and a great deal. Enjoy! 

[blackkitty2014]

Yay enjoy the goodies @Sunnysmom. These are really pretty 😍

I was on a business trip to Baltimore Harbor East and my hotel was just next to the Chanel beauty boutique. The closest to me and it’s an hour away and you have to pay for parking normally.  So I got to finally try on and buy the Chanel Sublimage L’Essence De Teint foundation!  I also purchased the Baume Essentiel in Scintillement, which is Mermaids Kiss renamed, but I didn’t already own it and the sparkles are beautiful.  

I can see why people love their SAs. My SA was Rana and she gave me an amazing collection of samples to try, and took her time picking them out even though someone walked into the store while she was choosing them.  It makes you feel very special. 

 

Here is my current collection of Chanel foundations. 😁. Oddly, the No1 is in shade B30, the Sublimage le Teint original in B20, and the best color by far in the Sublimage L’Essence le Teint was BR22.  The B20 was probably always too light, maybe I purchased it during the winter.  The No1 and original le Teint are both well over two years old, I’m the queen of using makeup past it’s recommended “good for” date, but I probably need to stop using the original “le Teint”, which is beautiful but also pretty heavy.

I’ll let you know if I like the No1 or the Sublimage L’Essence de Teint more.

Also, they didn’t have the new blushes in stock yet as of yesterday. They did have the beautiful new lipsticks, but I didn’t buy one. 

[blackkitty2014]

Oh how fun and enjoy your well deserved treat 😘 @curlychiquita @The Sublimage line sounds really nice. I think I have samples somewhere I need to try it 😘

[curlychiquita]

Thanks, @blackkitty2014! I’m enjoying the foundation! I plan to take my samples on a trip soon to use.

I loooove that your hotel was next to the Chanel boutique @curlychiquita! 😍 Excellent treats you picked up for yourself! 🛍 I love Chanel's base products, as well as many of their other beauties.

[curlychiquita]

Thanks, @itsfi! It was fun!

[TraceyEB]

@curlychiquita, what a wonderful experience you had at the Chanel boutique! I marvel at the thoughtfulness and generosity of the Sublimage samples! I'm also interested in the Sublimage L'Essence de Teint foundation. I have Chanel No 1, Ultra Le Teint, Vitalumiere Aqua, and Fresh Water Tint foundations. I  expect to finish the Vitalumiere and Fresh Warer Tint shortly. I'm also in the kingdom of using foundation long past the product use date. I had a beloved Bobbi Brown cream foundation that was discontinued and I used it until it separated so badly I couldn't whip it back together. Except for mascara, I pay no attention to product use dates at all. Would love to hear your thoughts on your new Sublimage foundation!

[curlychiquita]

I hope you love the Sublimage L'Essence de Teint foundation if you get it, @TraceyEB!  I still love the No 1, too, but I’m enjoying my new foundation!
