Hey Shypo, YES I am another Chanel addict.. much to the extreme unhappiness of my wallet. Sad, but MAC just hasn't been doing it for me lately... thankfully there is always Chanel!

Really hoping we get more swatches soon, I keep combing the internet waiting for more swatches to pop up... I'm dying to get a look at those bronzers

Forgot to say...I love peonies too...in fact I planted some in the fall and they just started to peek out from the ground last week. I'm excited to see how they'll do for me!

Peonies are so beautiful! I have 4 or 5 planted around the house - one in the back (that was planted by the previous owners) gets HUGE. It's white - not my favorite color, but it's still pretty. I have a couple of the fuchsia color, and one in pale pink. I just love the blossoms.....

I found this, which seems to represent the colors well, at least in the pan.....

I actual really like the looks of those quad colors....at least in the pans. Why don't they swatch them if they are going to post pics.

Your Peonies sound lovely! I would love them in any color.

^^ I know! Why go to the trouble of photographing them if they're not going to swatch them! And that quad had clearly been swatched before the pic was taken.....

I'm sure we'll see something soon. In the meantime, Lilium is tentatively on my list, along with Peony and Rose Bronze.

ty C! .. with the little hair I have I do so much
lmao.gif


yea travelling is a pain in the arse now.. argh. I can't imagine doing all the travelling that I did when I was a youngin..lol

Elegant & C!.. they don't do swatches cause they usually nab the pic from someone who nabbed it from someone else.. and they don't have actual samples so they can stick their fingers in it.

This is one of the reasons why I don't post my pics anymore -- they wind up all over the net with some blogger's name on them -= and my fat fingers

^^ I did - I haven't tried them yet - what are you on the fence about? I like the blush color - the lip pencils look interesting - I'll have to go try them. I did a Peacocky look today with Quite the Thing SS.....I have so many new things I don't know what to try first!!

Update: I do like the Punch Lip Magnifier - the color is pretty and it's very smooth. Don't know how long-wearing it will be, but that never matters to me. I have to reapply all the time anyway.

I also used the eye pencil. LOVE the color! It reminds me of the Sue Devitt pencils, which I like quite a lot.

HG, I hear ya about the pics....guess I hadn't considered that before.

I have a backlog of things to photograph now - swatches galore and peonies! Now if I could just figure out how to get the pics to show up in the post, I'd be good to go!

Well you like the same things I liked. Yes, it reminded me of the Sue D pencils too. I love the el pencil,& the shadow pencil colors a lot but the es one seems a little hard to blend. Love the lip pencils a lot too. Very cool. The powder seems too yellow for my skin tone. & the highlighter doesn't really show up. The blush is so pretty but turns a bit on the orange side for me. My brushes this time were scratchy which they never have been before. I guess all in all not too bad.

Ahhh, where is Chanel summer when you need it ;)
