Thanks, you are too kind. My veins look huge! Are you getting any of the new lipsticks?


Sounds great, I will start with either Saga or Suspense. Do the new RCS leave on stain on your lips when they dry up? My old ones do, even the lighter shades like Chance.
The new ones yes certainly but Chance ? Well I'll try it again to check this out, the formula is so different ( in my opinion ). Suspense is beautiful, worth the splurge I think ( I just took Saga )

So very frustrated right now! I stopped by the Chanel makeup studio yesterday (yes the actual makeup studio in Southern California where the SAs are supposed to be "in the know")....

Me: I heard that Chanel will be releasing new RCS for summer separate from the summer collection. Do you know when you will be getting these in stock?
SA: No that is not true. The only new RCS are these two (pointing to summer display w/ Pygmalian and other RCS in that collex). Are you sure that you don't mean these?
Me: So you do not know if you will be getting colors like Saga, Suspense, etc?
SA: No we are not scheduled to get any new RCS or lipsticks for summer.
Me: OK. Will you be getting the summer eyeshadow quad?
SA: There is no eyeshadow quad with the summer collection.
Me: I thought (trying to be nice to her) that I saw one on the Chanel website. Will you be getting that one?
SA: Sometimes products show up on the web in blogs long before they are released.
Me: Well this is for sale on the Chanel website.
SA: You must have seen a quad from an older collection.

I said thank you and walked away.

Ugh. That is very frustrating. Well I think Metamorphose may really be online exclusive, but you might try calling the boutique at Nordstrom Seattle. They might know more about the boutique/studio locations than the average boutique/studio SAs? Not sure. As far as Saga et al Chanel.com told me they would have those mid-May or so. They said they were supposed to be shipping May 6 (if I remember correctly) and that it would be up to 2 weeks after that. I think ship dates can change but I suppose that's something anyway. If you want to see them in person, well...............

Mid May, I hope this will be the time Europe and Asia gets Taboo and lip glosses because those are still missing here... Avant Premiere was released here once the lip glosses were released in US now I suppose it will be vice versa :)

I just ordered Saga. I kinda wanted Idylle from the summer collection more, but it's still not available here and I was tired of waiting. Needed my Chanel fix.

I hope it's subtle enough for my liking.

Saga is really a pretty pink shade, subtle and classy ( and quite pigmented ). Idylle and Pygmalion are pretty too, for Europa l'Eté Papillon is arriving soon ( May 17 so far I know ? )

I just ordered Saga, Suspense, Liaison, & Le Baiser
I'm sure you will love Saga :) I was thinking about Liasion too, but I'm not sure. I never bougth a Rouge Coco, I just had a sample a while ago and wasn't a big fan of the formula. But I think I want to give it another try.

every girl needs saga in her cosmetic wardrobe :)

I would described it as a perfect blue pink , but it's absolutely no cool colour. You really have to try it in person, it's so lovely and weareble
