I'm floating on
right now. My Holiday order from Saks arrived today. I wasn't expecting it until next week and was afraid the approaching Hurricane would delay the shipment.
I love everything. Malice looks like the shimmer version of Rouge Noir to me, probably more so than Vamp. On me, L'Impatiente and La Provocante are not the same. La Provocante is more opaque and more purple. It takes many, many swipes for me to build up L'Impatiente to the same intensity as La Provocante. They do look more similar at that point because of how deep the color is, but I still see a bit more red in L'Impatiente. If anything, I would say L'Impatiente is the matte version of the new Rouge Noir RA. Those two colors look the same on me.
Holiday and Tentation nail polishes were included in my order, and the new Passion RA. Passion is the last of the new RA reds that I needed to get. I should've made it the first one. When I tried it on, it instantly reminded me of MAC Ruffian Red. I LOVE Ruffian Red. It's the lipstick I'm wearing in my avatar and I think it may be HG status for me. I'm overjoyed to now have a Chanel version of the color.
I also got my order of Notorious. I've only looked at it. I'll play with it later when I start playing with the quad I picked up last night. I can't sop starring at the quad. I don't even want to swatch it yet.
I almost forgot to mention my GWP. It's a black patent leather looking cosmetic bag with deluxe samples of Chanel No5 body lotion (it smells nice), Sublimage Eye Cream, Sublimage Skin Cream, Lait Confort Cleansing Milk, and Inimitable Intense Mascara. I also got these really cute Chanel post-it notes.
