I need to go back to catch up, but just saw the pics of Plumetis. Thanks Elegant. I love it! Although, based on Sabrina's comparison swatches, it doesn't look a whole lot different than Stunning, perhaps a touch more peachy, and looks like it may be a bit more pigmented? But that Coralline l/l is looking like it would be really pretty with it. Not on the list, lol! If I put that on the list, something else has to come off...

Do we know which of the three polishes are permanent (if any)?

Elegant, I have a feeling that Etole won't be quite as rosy, but then again, with the liner I can see it looking the way it does on her lips.

I read a post on MUA where someone said they were told Quartz would be perm but from what I see on Chanel.com it looks like all 3 are LE?

OK! Found someone with some information!

Shipping delays from France have caused a delay from the original 'go live' date of June 1. They are now expecting to go live ONLINE on June 29th, but I would start checking around the 15th, when stock is expected to arrive. Me, I'll be checking before that. Costs are as follows:

Topkapi quad: $65 USD
JCs (Rouge, Gold): $43 USD each
RA in Byzantin: $32 USD

Great! Now I want Etole

I wonder if it looks more pink rose on her than what it actually is? Maybe a bit more on the brown side than what its showing there???
I'm thinking the same thing. I think I can skip these because any of my lipsticks that tend to orange, brown, etc, look horrible on me. This will give me the opportunity to splurge on one of the cooler reds of Chanel that I need to go in and swatch at Nordie. The only browns I can wear are soft pink cocoa colours, like Chanel's Crazed.

Thanks for the prices Winthrop! As for the fall collection, Rose Cuivre and Etole are calling my name, but I fear they won't look nearly like that on me since I'm darker. I'm still debating on a red lippy to throw in my cart along with my Byzance stuff next week...something wearable and work safe. Any suggestions? Been eyeballing Talisman, Vendome, and Rivoli...hmm.

The quad is definitely the stand out product from the Byzance collection!


I'm considering purchasing the spring quint, does anyone who has it feel the shadows are frosty? They seem frosty in some pictures I've seen but fine in others :S also are the shadows easy to work with?

I'm sure you'll love the quad! Hoefully it arrives on tuesday - can't wait! Btw where did you find the spring quint? I've been wanting it ever since I saw swatches on the beauty look book!
[/quote] It would be amazing if it arrives on tuesday, I just can't wait to see it! I hope it's beautiful in person as it looks in pictures! I got the spring quint from boots.com of all places, it's £39 :)

Thanks, I'm debating whether I should get it or not, I think I should ring up Debenhams and see if my loacal store has it in stock so I can use my £5 voucher on my beauty card

[/quote] It's definitely worth a try! I fell in love with it after seeing swatches and it looks really versatile plus some of the colours look similar to the new gel shadows which I don't think I'll be purchasing so it's a nice way to get some of the sameish colours for me

If its still there at the end of the month I'll get it but I know I shouldn't now as Semi Precious is out soon!

[/quote] I know exactly what you mean! Another naked palette owner here, and several Dior quints that are neutral but this is so limited and special you have to own it ;)
