Chanel Holiday 2012 - Eclats du Soir de Chanel

[Haven]

I just received my Notorious today. Fortunately I don't work tomorrow, so I can play around with it a little.

My shipment of Notorious is supposed to arrive Wednesday. Can't wait. I love contouring from the most subtle effect to the full drag queen effect.

I'm considering picking up Notorious. Im kind of iffy about it. Im really fair but warm (i think.)
What do you ladies think? Is it something that i can easily make work?
I can't wait to order the palette!

Woot! All of my Holiday is on Pre-Order & GUARANTEED to be secured for me as soon as it arrives. They've been checking every day to let me know as soon as it shows ups. She did this for me because they are anticipating a rush on a few of the items.

Exciting! What did you decide on?

Sorry we missed the BP

Katred would love this blush too.

I think everyone can make it work. But, it may be so subjective as to whether or not you will like it on yourself. Its very easy to work with. You just have to start with the tiniest amount. If you have the warmer tones, then you should be perfect.

I don't know if y'all have seen this.

Funny how Elegant and I always have the same shopping list.

OT but I am so glad to have my friends here. I have to take my senior dog in today and have him put down. It breaks my heart and no amount of retail therapy will help for now but I am thankful to take solace in friends here who understand and are supportive. Ah, the power of the Internet.

 

[Winthrop44]

Oh I'm so sorry April........

If you are looking for a diversion later or Monday you might try calling the Belk in Charlottesville VA at 434-973-7878 to ask about the BP. It's a slower counter and I have gotten some HTF MAC things by calling there before. They might be able to search other Belk stores for you too...not sure whether or not Belk has that capability.

Elegant, I ordered Kate's Notorious this morning so she will be all set.

Aww, April that is one of the hardest things in life. hugs, dear.

Its so true about our friends here. Winthrop has been holding my hand through tough times

Its so comforting.

Is that your list too! Not surprised

I almost wasn't going to get the quad, but yeah I will.

Funny...or maybe not funny. I'm getting my first iphone so I wanted a Chanel case

I called the Boutique where I got my cuff to see if they made them - $800

Good heavens - really.

 

[Winthrop44]

Geez.......Let me know if you find any nice looking ones that are also protective and not slippery. I have yet to find one I love. I have the 4S though.

 

[CartoonChic]

I'm sorry about your dog, April.

So tell me, do I need to get a BU of Notorious since it's so magical or is one enough? I don't know how much product you get or how long it would generally last. I'd like to know while it's still in stock on the website.

Yes, I do know of one. Its a GREAT case. I have it for my Samsung now so I am getting the clear one for the iphone. Its slim, light-weight, you can grip it without it feeling to be too much. Its not slippery. The have it for the 4S too.

I have the Barely There (first link) now but I am going to get the second one - Naked for my iphone

You are the sweetest

She'll love it

 

[Winthrop44]

Ooohh...the naked one looks very interesting! Thanks

Notorious is not coming to Canada My SA showed me the colour story for this collex and Notorious was not included. It sucks too coz it sounds like the perfect contour. I use MAC Sculpt sculpting powder (have been for 4 years now) and I love it but in the winter it's a bit too pigmented for my skin and I have to be careful with it.

I guess I satisfy myself with what I can get here. I've learned over time that I don't need or use half of what I buy. So no point being upset over an item that's not available here.

Whooooooo Notorious is RIDICULOUSLY AWESOME. I have a full review on my blog. I've never seen/used anything like it. The fact that it goes on so sheer makes it MUCH more universal than I first thought. I tossed the applicator though. Makes the formula more 'powdery' than I like. I thought it was the formula at first, but then I used my contour brush and I got much better results.

Is it worth getting a BU? The only Chanel items I've bought are lipsticks and nail polish. I don't know the life span of a product like Notorious and if it's something that will get used quickly.

I talked my good Nordies SA into ordering it yesterday
