The All-Things Chanel Makeup, Skincare & Fragrance Thread

^ Oh really? I saw it on their website so I was hoping it was still available.

Can anyone recommend any other Chanel powder foundation?

They have 2 powder fdt's...

Mat Lumiere, a natural mat effect...

Vitalumiere Powder Make-up, a egalised fresh radiant finish...

^ Ah thank you so much! Will do some research into the both of those .

Hoping to make it to my local Chanel counter some time next week to pick out a new foundation and I always like to have an idea of what I want before I go.

One more thing...

You seem very knowledgeable about Chanel products so can I ask which one you would recommend.

I have oily, combination skin and would like something with light to medium coverage. And ideally a foundation that gives me coverage without making it look like I'm wearing makeup. Thank you!

Then I wil recommend you the Vitalumiere Aqua fluide make-up and to finish the Poudre Universel Compact. The result is a fresh, dewy matt skin, natural finish and medium coverage....

^ I think you mentioned this a while back - the new Rouge Allure Velvet range of lipsticks (makeup4all.com

There will be 8 lipsticks divided into four groups:

• Beige Troublant (beige 32 La Ravissante, 33 La Distinguee
• Rose Insolent (pink): 34 La Raffinee, 37 L’Exuberante
• Rouge Magnetique (red): 38 La Fascinante, 39 La Somptueuse, 40 La Sensuelle
• Brun Envoutant (brown 41 L’Exquise

To celebrate the launch of the new lipsticks Chanel also introduced three new nail polishes and a matte top coat:

• 08 Pirate, relaunch of the famous red
• 519 Rose Exuberant, bright pink
• 521 Hidden Rose, a soft, natural shade.

Oh yay Pirate is out again, I much prefer it to Dragon.

 

[greatscott2000]

YES!! Can't wait!

Can I ask what's the difference of the shade/colour?

 

[Mindbear]

Does anyone know if they intend to bring out a paler shade when they launch the new Chanel foundation? I love Chanel foundations but they're SO dark!

 

[mrsjamesdean]

Its a bit more blue hue or something, I remember borrowing this from my Mum and I much prefer it to my Dragon which is still nice and more on the orange hue but I guess its more of a true red compared to others.

Apparently there will be 18 shades in the range - I hope each region gets the full 18, Chanel tends to vary (for example in the UK we don't have the BR range for Vitalumiere Aqua, which they do in the US)

I agree I prefer the look of Pirate. Thanks for that pic. Dragon and Fire look almost the same.

The Pixiwoo girls already got their hands on the fall collection, I think they're doing a tutorial sometime soon

I bought the Vitalumiere Eclat compact today, and it is amazing! I've never had so many compliments

Any reviews on the Inimitable Intense mascara?

 

[FleurDeLys]

^^It's the best mascara I've ever tried. I have quite long lashes, but they are very sparse, and this mascara gives me a lot of volume without clumpiness.
