Yes, on me I prefer Mystic Eyes.

Thanks, I'm pleased with what Mystic Eyes do to my eyes, so I've decided to pass Stupendous. Money is saved!

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but this collection has arrived in the UK. I spotted it at the Chanel counter in Selfridges London yesterday. I assume this is probably exclusive to Chanel boutique counters as I haven't seen it on any of the regular counters. (I won't be buying though as I have so many things on my holiday collection wishlist already!)

^^ I wore Enigma in the day and it wasn't overly dramatic. IMO it is office friendly. Do you think I need Stupendous?

I wouldn't call Stupendous a must have, but I do really like it. I prefer it over Mystic Eyes on me, it makes my eyes pop more.

*cries* I was just talking to a online beauty advisor at Neiman Marcus and they will NOT be carrying the Soho collection :-( I was so hoping it would show up there eventually so I could get Stupendous and Stunt. Grrrr why can't Chanel.com just ship to canada or have a Canadian website!

mrslid, sorry to hear that MN will not get it. Maybe someone else in Canada does?

If other counters in the US are getting it, does that mean that the collection could make it to Europe this time?

I'm pretty sure we won't be seeing this collection again in Canada. It was only available at the Holt's flagship store and the boutique, and we didn't get Stunning and maybe Stunt as well.

I wouldn't count NM out yet. When I called Nordstrom the other day I was told NM has exclusive rights to the collection. Today another Nordstrom told me they'll be getting it in the next couple of weeks. I don't think anybody really knows what they're talking about. lol

You know, I just don't get the no shipping to Canada. Chanel.com should ship there! So sorry

There are quite a few sites that still don't ship to Canada, both make-up and clothing. Even home stuff. Pottery Barn doesn't ship here, and that really bugs me because they have a lot of online exclusive items.

So Bloomies has the collection over here. The rep insisted that the collection was exclusive to Bloomies (poor uninformed woman)...

I tried everything.

Still love Stunt Laque. Getting a backup.

Stunning skips like La Pausa. Not impressed. pass.

Quad is pigmented, but what the heck do I want with a sky blue shimmer eyeshadow? Really? No. I haven't cared about that color since 1980. The other colors are dupeable. Actually, should I ever need to step back in makeup time, that blue is dupeable too. Pass.

I WILL get the blush. I like it. It's not anything to write home about, but I do like it. So I'll get before the year is out. Not pressed though.

Nordies is having a 'pre-sale' of those massive perfumes. OMG. Now THAT'S something worth writing home about. I don't understand the hoopla about Beige (yawn). Cuir De Russie is quite noteworthy.

This is pretty much my reaction to the quad based on swatches. Of course, my skin is very warm with strong yellow undertones, so I couldn't rock that color even if was 1980!

I am seriously considering the blush, though.

My counter didn't have stocks of the quad anymore. Money is saved, and I don't have to think if I still want the quad.

Ingenue, I don't like Stunning too. I wish we got Stunt so I could at least give it a swatch. Enjoy your Stunt and the powder!

It definitely went blue on me, which likely means that it's a blue based silver (the way MAC White Frost is a blue based white shimmer). It's the same concept that causes a lot of 'nudes' go pink on darker skin tones (because they're a pink based nude). It looks very retro... and not in a good way. lol
