Collection Superstition (Fall 2013)

[elegant-one]

This collection is amazing! I'm new to this thread, so forgive me if I mention something that's already been asked. I'm nc15 and was wondering if fantastic would work for me? I already picked up presage and mystique and LOVE them!

Absolutely! They blend out beautifully & the color would be lovely on you. I'm nw15

Plan on putting an addition on your house because CC's nail polish collection can fill a boutique----a very large boutique.

So I should just build a nail salon

Great! I'm probably going back to my Chanel counter tomorrow and purchasing asap! While I'm there any other must haves?

Ok, I am in LOVE with Rendez-Vous! Its SOOOOOOOOOOOOO pretty on. Today I got to try it on fresh lips.

Running out today for some fun errands & I did not want to do full face makeup.
This morning I used the Smashbox CC cream all over even under/over eyes
Dior Bronze glow ))1 - Pink on apples of the cheeks with just a teeny tap on the bronze side blended back the cheekbones
Rendez-Vous on the lips

It looks so fresh & pretty that I cannot rave about the combo enough. Plus, its like 5 minutes & out the door.

I noticed that Nordies took Affinite off the website. I called almost every store yesterday & no one ever got it. They say manufacturing delays.

So Josephine - I got all but Destiny & Affinite blushes

base on all the swatches, I really like affinite and revelation! I swear affinite was on nordies site yesterday but it disappeared LOL

Gorgeous, LiliV

I wore Mystique last night, it's a really nice gentle color that I think will match with a lot of different make up looks

Very pretty  LiliV !

Gorgeous, LiliV :eyelove:

Thanks ladies!

I picked up Fantastic, the khaki liner and the khaki mascara. I am debating on going back and getting Presage for summer (or what passes for summer here). Someone (I think my skin twin Elegant) mentioned RC in Amant. I have been wearing this alot lately with Bois De Rose l/l and and Idlye RCS. It makes such a pretty combo.

Sounds lovely.

I can't wear Amant enough

I purchased inspiration yesterday from my local Nordstrom. Wore it today with a little bit of contour and MAC blond msf to highlight.

I ended up just with Fantastic and it is absolutely stunning!! However, there was a new person working at my counter and tried to tell me that everything in the fall collection was limited edition and that I should buy it all. Crazy! I'm going back for esprit as soon as I can.

Ahh, thats soo bad the SA tried that on you. I'm happy you liked Fantastic as it really is that beautiful. You will love Esprit too

You can come live with me.....oh, & bring all your nail polish

That sounds like it would be a lot of fun.

Gorgeous! I received my quad, Fantastic and Presage blushes today. Still waiting for Mysterious nail polish to arrive. I already received Elixir and Alchimie. I haven't swatched the quad, but I played with the blush. I'm very happy with them and I think the smaller compact is cute. When I first applied Presage, I could see the color, but then it looked like it started to fade away right before my eyes. I applied a second layer and it did the same thing. After the 3rd layer it was fine. Fantastic on the other hand didn't fade at all.

I'll test out the other blush colors and the lipsticks in person, but no idea when that will be. Maybe some time this week or next. I'm still interested in the khaki mascara. I'll probably exchange Lime Light for it. Lime Light isn't working for me, which is a shame as I do like the color. It's just too light on me and makes my lashes look thin and sparse.

You can move into the large nail salon I'm building you

and yes, we would have A LOT of fun

thank you
I went to pick it up yesterday. When I ordered it, 3 chanel skincare samples were included. Of course when I came to pick it up, no samples in my bag. I kindly asked CS about it and they told me just to go downstairs to chanel counter, he will call them and let them know to give me those samples. I waited for like 20 min and finally when I explained I was told no one called and they have no idea what I am talking about. I mentioned three skincare samples and was told that they do not have any. Literally customer before me got those samples, saw it with my own eyes. wtf ?

It's been my experience that when you select store pick up, you don't receive the samples that you selected online. It's mentioned in the details at the bottom of the sample selection page.

The Chanel SAs at my Nordstrom are stingy with samples. I don't think they ever gave me any samples when I shopped there. I prefer to just order online. I only select in store pick up if I'm really impatient or if I'm already headed to the mall for something else. Grant it, I never asked for samples, but I feel like I shouldn't have to ask if I'm spending my money at your counter.
