Im becoming more obsessed with Chanel Beaute every day! Im on a mission to have a makeup bag filled with Chanel.
I have Mystic Eyes quad, Blush de Horizon, A Rouge Coco and an Aqualumiere gloss.
Any other must haves?

Just stumbled across new Rouge Coco Ads with Sigrid Agren - are they going to release new colours? I haven't found anything about that on this thread, sorry, if I missed it!

I'm looking for a setting powder for touch-ups during the day, anyone knows which of the Poudre Universelle Compacte or the Poudre Douce will be a better choice? Any differences between them?

Ever since I've started using Chanel products, I can't stop buying more and more!
Haha I'm addicted, so is my best friend, I've infected her...

Switched from makeup forever's powder to chanel's lumiere last week and love it. I never liked foundation before, but the lumiere is like applying liquid silk to your face. It actually makes your face look like the models in the magazine ads.

kissmesweet · 11-04-2012

Lumiere sounds really good. I was actually considering getting Makeup Forever's HD foundation, but now that you've mentioned Lumiere is even better...

Antigone · 12-04-2012

Is Rouge Coco Magnolia worth buying?

Gábor · 15-04-2012

Which is the best Chanel concealer?

Label Basher · 15-04-2012

Has anyone got the Roses Ultimes de Chanel Collection yet?

I am so getting Attraction and Tentation.

A look at the Summer 2012 nail varnishes (thebeautylookbook.com):

Quote:

Chanel Island #597 is a soft opalescent pearly beige that flashes some seashell pink. It has a sheer see-through finish, but glides on smoothly and evenly with 2 coats. It reminded me of an older nail polish Angora, but when I swatched them side-by-side, I found Island to be more pinkish. This color makes the fingers glow with a subtle but natural sheen. It's reminiscent of the long-discontinued Island single eyeshadow (which I wish they would bring back). If you're looking for a gloss to match this perfectly, it seems Seashell would be a close match.

Chanel Delight #607 is the color I was anticipating the most. It's a high-sparkle complex bronzey-gold. I found that it has a similar finish to that of Graphite (sheerish base loaded with sparkles and highly metallic). However, the first coat is much much more pigmented than Graphite or even Gold Fingers. On the nails the pale-neutral-gold shimmers stand out. For me, it looks like a pale gold rather than a bronze on the fingertips. I'm sure there are similar shades from OPI (I'm thinking something from the Muppets collection or a warmer version of Glitzerland, possible close to China Glaze Swing Baby), but I usually miss out on most of the limited edition OPI colors. The finish is smooth with full coverage using 2 coats. There is no gritty feeling even with all the sparkles. It's nothing like anything else Chanel has released. In the bottle it looks warm, on the fingers it's a neutral-warm metallic. (Note the color changes depending on the angle and the way the light hits the metallic particles in bottle, sometimes it looks more bronze, other times more golden.)

Chanel Holiday #617 is an orange-coral. Coral is a hot shade this year and with so many brands releasing coral shades, many have asked me, "how is this one similar/different?" I would say it's close to last year's Dior Aloha, but minus the jelly finish. Compared to this year's releases, Chanel Holiday is predominantly orange. Most of the other corals have pink or red undertones. There is still some red in Holiday, but I'd say it's more of a burnt-orange/coral blend. The first coat is sheerish but it applies smoothly and gives full coverage with 2 coats. I thought this might be similar to Enthusiast, but Holiday is quite a bit more orange.

^ I really love Holiday! It's the perfect coral-red for summer.

I just got a manicure with Attraction.
