Collection Superstition (Fall 2013)

No surprise that these are all too warm/ brown for me, but I think that they could work very well on others. Quality seems there.

At the moment, I'm just having to deal with the fact that my makeup is going to melt within minutes of me putting it on and nothing can save it. This is CANADA! We're supposed to be COLD! Not that I love winter, but 95 degree heat for days on end- especially when it doesn't drop below 90 at night- is killer!

Tell me about it...I'm in the east coast of the US and we're experiencing a heat wave as well.

Must. Get. Those are the exact two colors I want and they're both beautiful.
In my cream blush experiment, I was attempting to use a brush to apply the cream blush. I think I'll still use my fingers to apply, but will try using a brush to blend to see that effect.
also try fantastic (or any of them) under foundation, you can use a little more and it looks divine - i did it by accident and liked it better! i don't often wear foundation but i thought it was a cool look!

thank you for posting this! i love destiny and it looked much different on me that her - i am a little tan right now so it brought out more of a brown tone, i used with soleil chanel make up base and they worked well together...on me it was def not as orange as in her pic and i have both yellow/pink undertones

Sorry about the warm weather. The weather is just odd this year. I like Icone but not Destiny.

I went out on a limb and purchased Destiny before swatching it or seeing T's review. I'm just in love with the formula of these blushes---I now have all but one. There was just something about the color of Destiny that appealed to me---I'm glad it did. I'm wearing it today and it looks like a warm peach color on me. It's really very pretty.

I bought GriGri because it swatched beautifully on my hand. Wearing it today and it's SUPER sheer...this is my first Chanel eyeshadow so not sure if it's supposed to be like that. It kinda reminds me of a soft version of Coco pigment....I have 2 jars of Coco so this may be going back.

Now those blushes...oh man i NEED one in my life lol just gotta narrow down to which color first

T's review of Presage (62) Le Blush Creme de Chanel:

http://www.temptalia.com/chanel-presage-62-le-blush-creme-de-chanel-review-photos-swatches

I was just coming to ask how this compared to MAC's Ripe for Love...only difference is the simmer and of course RFL is powder. I have RFL so I may skip but I don't know...decisions, decisions...
I think I am going to purchase it if it's still around next month. I'd like to have a creme version of this color so this is the one I'm planning to get.

So far, the blush that tempts me the most is Fantastic. I've been looking for a deeper rose shade of blush with some red in it (but not so much that it just looks like a red blush). I guess since that's one of the limited ones, it makes sense to go for it first.

Still tempted by both Gri Gri and Hasard, although I'm now re-looking at my must-buys from all brands since I got a look at the Armani collection. A lot of stuff I want there. Of course, I wanted Esprit as well...

Katred -- you would love the Esprit RCS. I just bought it while on vacation. It is so pigmented and gorgeous! A deep shimmering raspberry. I don't usually go for the darker shades, but this is wearable. Perfect with your skin coloring!

Do you have Esprit also? Of course you do!! You would look amazing in it! (or amazefest, as my oldest likes to say

)
I kinda have to admit, I partly bought Esprit because it reminds me of the clothing brand that I adored all though middle school!

Remember the cloth Esprit totes?

You had to have a tote and sweatshirt. Now this also has me thinking of Esleep pajamas... Ah, the 80's!
