Chanel Joues Contraste blushes

[elegant-one]

hmm, no I didn't. I'm thinking the chanel one is more violet toned. I will check though You are very welcome my dear!

Thank you very much for the pics & swatch! Have you compared this (colorwise not texture) to MAC Prom Princess from the Archie collection? Are they similar?

I just swatched them side by side & yes, the chanel is more violet. PP is more rosy pink in comparison. They are definitely different. HTH

I was debating whether to order it. PP is the only blush that I have which is close. Since they are different enough to have both, then I will get it. I am excited, but my wallet is not. LOL

It's very pretty on & different. I don't think you'll regret it. I'll want to know what you think.

OK when I get it I will post my thoughts. I am going to call around to see if anyone local has it in stock. If not, then I will order from Saks. Last time I checked in store, none of the major retailers around here had it.

Is Sakura available to order? I haven't seen it come up yet. Did I miss the boat?

I think it was exclusive to Chanel online & has not been available again for quite some time.

Okay, this may be in the wrong thread, but what is the foundation everyone's raving about? I need something new, but medium &/or buildable coverage. & I'm also looking for a new concealer they d/c'ed the Josie Maran one I randomly bought. But I need a concealer I can wear even if I'm not wearing any powder or foundation, which is more often than not the case b/c I've been feeling so bad...but my eyes they need coverage. Especially with my bday coming up in a few days. I'm looking tired, old, exhausted. No bueno. So any brand for either a preferably awesome powder foundation & any type concealer, please. Thank you.

It was part of the Jardin De Camélias collection. I just checked online again and the pic is no longer there

Star Dust I saw recently here in the UK on boots.com. But I don't think it's worth a chase, it's a glitter fest with no colour payoff.

I agree with LivN- when I tested it, Star Dust was pretty to look at but barely there colour pay off and glittery. I resisted it and I have little resistance to JC's, especially pink ones. Unless that's what you're after, I wouldn't say it's unique or extraordinary.

That's why it shipped so fast for you - they just go to your shelf and throw the JC with the crater in!

Hysterical! They have notes on her just like MAC

I think you're probably referring to the new Chanel Perfection Lumiére Velvet. Those who have it seem to really
love it. I've ordered it, so I can't tell you objectively at this point, but there are some very comprehensive reviews in
the thread that you'll find very enabling helpful.

I just posted my review on Canaille yesterday am and my Vivacite should arrive this pm. Here's a swatch for u ladies!

 

[Medgal07]

It looks great on you. I'm enjoying both immensely! Have you compared Canaille to Tom Ford's Ravish & Savage. It just occurred to me to check and they're not to
far off in color, but there are subtle differences in intensity/shimmer/no shimmer, etc.
