Chanel Summer 2011

[Shypo]

I'm in for the glossimers, and maybe the Rose polish....and maybe the highlighter compact......but will likely pass on the quad and the other polishes. Would like to know more about the eye liner - the color itself sounds pretty, but for the eyes??? Really? Pinkeye anyone?

 

[User38]

Cool! So far I can pass on everything...my bank account will be very happy!

Agree with mrslid.. and I hope you feel better ! Told ya Chanel would still be here when you got well.


Shypo.. biggest hugs and wishes for a great new year and decade.. Good lord we need it!

funny - we were watching an old Dean Martin & Ann Margaret movie last night - & AM was wearing that yellow nail polish!

she was also wearing large dot pants, feathers, bright green squares, & reallllly low hippy pants

 

[Winthrop44]

Hmmm..that sounds about right to me with the yellow polish! I wonder when this will come out?

 

[strix]

I am loving the idea of yellow for spring/summer, but I think only a select few skin tones can pull it off, mainly tan or olive. I am pale so I'll have to pass.

The three summer polishes appear to be on evilbay already.

^ Go figur!

Karin - I feel like we haven't seen you in forever

Strangely I like the yellow

 

[purrtykitty]

I've been super busy, and now I've come down with a cold. I'm waiting for an ebay auction to end before I head off to bed.

 

[Susanne]

Karin, feel better soon!

Thanks for the links.

 

[Miss QQ]

Karin, get well soon! It's the season for colds, take care!

elegant, I like the yellow too lol! I have a neon yellow from Essie, Shorty Pants. The formula isn't that fantastic but I like the colour on my toes in summer with white sandals! I can't wait for reviews on Chanel's yellow np.

 

[2browneyes]

I'm thinking Aurore glossimer sounds really pretty...wanna try that. And Susanne, I'm with you- I yellow nail polish added to my list

 

[mrslid]

OMG!! That seller doesn't just have the polishes, she the whole collection!! She even has Rouge Coco Shines!!! How is that possible??!! Is this authentic? It certainly looks authentic.

 

[Winthrop44]

The quad looks different and interesting!

Ooh!

I actually really like the way the quad looks there (minus the round pans...I always like the look of the square pans more for some reason). I could do without that pink shade, but the 2 darker shades look really beautiful! I especially like that taupey-purpley-grey-brown color in the bottom right corner.

I still can't see myself working the yellow polish. That's going to look just terrible on me, lol. Oh well, I'll just stick to bright orange, coral, pink and turquoise shades this Summer like normal.

 

[Camnagem]

The seller has 2 versions of the bronzer palette: Soleil Tan Bronze Corail and Soleil Tan Bronze Rose. They both look really gorgeous...I can't wait to see how those swatch/feel.

Also, WOW...Rouge Coco Shine in Chance looks like a great bright medium pink for Summer!

[Honey&LemonGirl]

The only item that's really catching my eye in this collection is the Bronze Corail powder. It looks absolutely lovely. I can't wait till the RC Shines come out though. The colors that the eBay seller has look really interesting! It's too bad I really dislike that sort of twist-up packaging (like the YSL RVs and the MAC Slimshines). I always feel like it gets messy too easily.

Looks like my first Chanel haul of 2011 is probably going to be Bronze Corail, the Vitalumiere Aqua, and Peregrina!

 

[mrslid]

The RC Shines on eBay almost looked like they had a frost finish. I really hope that's not what they meant by "shine"? Looks like another quad I won't be able to pass up though...go figure LOL.
I'm thinking that Bronze Corail powder is likely a no no for my pale skin so at least I can save a bit on that ;-)

 

[RedVelvetX]

I love those two dark colors in the quad too

Can't wait for the swatches already. She seems to have a lot of sample sizes for the lipsticks.

 

[mrslid]

Ooohhh lots of sample sized lipsticks sounds fun! We're all going to be in bidding wars against each other now LOL

 

[elegant-one]

Personally, I would not pay the same price or more for a Chanel lipstick that had a sticker (not for sale - LMAO) on it. I would have to have a pristine one
