What is happening @Mochapj ! 😆 I was told spring was going to be wild. Now I’m very curious as we keep seeing these new palettes in dribs and drabs! 

[Sunnysmom]

Some of the new releases.  I think the quad is very wearable for a fun pop of cool colors and can also be built up nicely, plus worn with other shadows. The highlighters are a very pleasant surprise as well. I had thought I’d only get Rose if any but ended up loving Peche, a good neutral nude, almost light bronzer effect. I guess some reviewers didn’t love them but I do!  used the cream -to -powder blush underneath them and it’s the prettiest blurry watercolor effect, also using the Rose over the Peche.  They can show up more than I originally thought. Pic shows Rose on top , Peche below. 🌸

Very pretty, @Sunnysmom ! 🥰   My initial glance at the eyeshadow colors reminded me of my bruises! 🤣  

[blackkitty2014]

@Titian06 @Sunnysmom  But but but these are pretty bruises I promise 😂🤣 I actually used this quad first time today. It is much much better than the button quad with the gray color. This one the colors actually show up on me. 😘 

[Sunnysmom]

🤣 I agree @blackkitty2014 , they are! Pretty bruises @Titian06 ! 😂 was so happy to see they showed up more than what we were maybe hearing and seeing! I bet it’s so pretty on you! 😍

[Titian06]

I'm sure these colors are lovely on you, @blackkitty2014 ! 🥰

[Sunnysmom]

Oh no @Titian06 ! That may have crossed my mind too!! Ugh! 😭 Thank goodness it’s a pretty lavender grey when it’s on the eyes! 

[Winthrop44]

Agree @Sunnysmom !  It’s so pretty on. Chanel is making me a blue convert with the way they’re doing blues.

[Sunnysmom]

Yes @Winthrop44 ! It’s turning out to be quite the blue/lavender year isn’t it?! I’m always glad to work them into some of my greys and it’s a fun shade to experiment with compared to the rather neutral shades I seem to always gravitate towards. Do you have a lot of other non-neutrals in your arsenal?! 

[Winthrop44]

Not really. Honestly purples are my only non-neutral weakness, which is probably why I like these “blues”. What about you?

[blackkitty2014]

I didn’t see the blusher/highligher swatches @Sunnysmom  Refuse to see them 😂🤣 I’m glad you love them. Great swatches 🥰🌹 I ordered the quad only but due to snail mail it won’t arrive til next week. Hope they show up nicely on me as they did on you. 🌹❤️

[Sunnysmom]

I know @blackkitty2014 ! I was thinking nope these aren’t going to be anything I will want and then seeing them changed my mind too quickly! The overspray whenever you call it goes away immediately but they sill have a little subtle sheen and glow. Very pretty. I’m sure your shadows will be wonderful on you! That 9 palette. I will have to unsee that when you get it! 💞

Macy's has some of the holiday collection online. If you are near a store with a Chanel counter, you can also get 15% off. The eyeshadow palette Nuit Astrale sold out when it was first posted, as did the pink blush. I was told by my counter (in another city) that the gift sets are in and the collection should be available in store next week.

[Sunnysmom]

What a nice deal @TraceyEB ! Wish I’d gotten mine there! 😭 I love when they do that! Excited to hear about your purchases! 

[blackkitty2014]

Oh lately it’s a hunger game on Macys website. Newness popped up and poof they’re gone within couple minutes. I guess ppl start stalking the site liked we I did @Sunnysmom 😂🤣

[Sunnysmom]

It would be a lie to say I don’t do it too @blackkitty2014 ! 🤣 I didn’t see these when they popped up. It’s amazing that they are included sometimes and Hermes too! Yippee! It really can be nutty on there and Nordstrom . Well a bunch of them. Wild times! 

[blackkitty2014]

what did you pick up @TraceyEB 🥰

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014, I purchased Les 4 Ombres in Nuit Astrale. I also wanted the Noir Allure mascara in Anthracite (purple) but it wasn't available online or in store just yet...and maybe a lipstick or a gift bag. Are you picking up anything from the collection? 💙💜🎄

[blackkitty2014]

@TraceyEB I also picked up the quad and the Space Traveler 9 pan eyeshadow. Are you gonna pick any 9 pan up?

[TraceyEB]

@blackkitty2014, right now, I'm not planning on buying a 9-pan palette. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the Space Traveler, though!
