Hi @TraceyEB , I’m looking into some things and will definitely update!! Maybe we’ll have to try a few options and see what sticks! ❤️❤️

[TraceyEB]

Chanel Les Beiges 2026 is available at Chanel US and Chanel Canada. The Essentials Kit is live on the US site. I was told that in Canada, Holt Renfrew should be getting this kit. (Shoppers will not be getting it.)

Bloomingdale's also had the kit in.

A few pieces from the latest Les Beiges collection. (They mistakenly sent me 2 Sorbet vs 1 Nectar blush so that is coming and I’ll be happy to swatch Monday if anybody wants to see it.) The blush has some decent pigment and lasted all day as did the highlighter. They can be built up nicely. Coco Flash lippies are so comfy. 

Edit to add Nectar. 😊

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, I pre-ordered the Sorbet and Nectar blush and Coco Flash in Fruity via my Macy's Chanel SA. They ship on May 5.

[Sunnysmom]

Excellent @TraceyEB ! Excited for you to get them. I know these will be perfect shades for you! ❤️

[blackkitty2014]

All are gorgeous @Sunnysmom. After your swatches I think I want Nectar and the highlighter too. 🤣😂 I really like the Sorbet I got 😘 

[Sunnysmom]

They’re very nice aren’t they @blackkitty2014 ? I don’t recall the older ones seeming to dry down this quickly and almost seem water resistant do you? The new shades and highlighter are flattering for so many I’m sure. I don’t love all the prices but I guess I do like the smaller tubes so at least I stand a good chance of using them up too eh?! 🙂

You’ve had a marvelous Spring, @Sunnysmom! The highlighter looks so nice! 

[Sunnysmom]

It has been a good one @curlychiquita thank you. This from the girl who claims to really love fall/winter makeup more! 🙃🤣

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, wonderful that you have pieces from the Les Beiges collection already!! The swatches are gorgeous. I would be interested in seeing a swatch of Nectar when you receive it. Do the blushes keep their vibrancy when they dry down? 

[Sunnysmom]

I was quite surprised as well @TraceyEB . Usually it takes my store a bit to receive the new collections. Here you go- Nectar arrived! Yes they are pretty good tho to be honest I usually layer my blush so I guess I haven’t really used it on its own yet. I will have to. Both of them seem to have more oomph than my previous colors. The shade is very pretty, think I love it and it’ll get a bunch of use this season! Excited to hear about yours. 💞

[TraceyEB]

@Sunnysmom, really appreciate seeing Nectar swatched. It's gorgeous and in my buy category! 💜

Hot Off The Presses: Per my Canadian SA, there is another Chanel collection launching June 16 called the Summer Nights Collection.

Belatedly posting my purchase from Chanel's Demin Collection. The hand cream La Creme de Main, which I've used before in the rich formula, the Bleu Twill Stylo Yeux, and the Coco Denim highlighter were my must haves. I picked up the Denim Dream eyeshadow palette and Rouge Coco Flash in Baby Blue in a subsequent purchase after I saw some reviews.  Am thrilled with the pieces I have. The highlighter shade is a light blue with pink and light microshimmers; its easy to wear when applied with a fluffy brush. The Baby Blue Coco Flash is a fun topper shade. The eyeliner Bleu Twill should be in Chanel's regular line; it's beautiful and versatile, as is the Denim Dream eyeshadow palette. The denim pouches are good quality; the hand cream pouch is especially well made...unexpectedly sturdy.

Not sure why this collection was limited to Chanel boutiques and Nordstrom and in such limited quantities given that blue collections sell well for Chanel.

These are so cute! I was sad I missed all of them but glad you got everything! 💙💙💙

[Titian06]

Congratulations, @TraceyEB !  It looks so pretty! 💙💙💙

Gorgeous pick @TraceyEB 🥰 Enjoy! I love the hand cream. So nice plus the cute pouch 🥰🌹PS I agreed on the LE part. It’s dumb of Chanel to make it tiny quantities and lots of promo. Looks liked they handed out free stuffs to influencers left and right. I don’t get their reason 🤣😂
