Chanel Collection Reflets d'Été de Chanel - Summer 2014

[Medgal07]

so funny!

I'm wondering if I'm making a mistake in not getting cheeky. It looked so muddy when I swatched it. I wanted it to have a bit of pink undertone to it like Mac's Blushbaby

Elegant, Cheeky is a blush that you can wear on it's own w/just lipstick & nothing else (well clothes of course

) I wore it today w/a smokey eye & nude lip. I love
the way that it looks and it has the same creamy consistency as my other Chanel blush crémes. It does lean pink/mauve on me...like MAC Small Vanity.

So my Les Beiges N01 got delivered today and it's lopsided. Probably happened during shipping? I am bothered by it but wanted to ask your opinion. Should I return and get a new one from a department store come May 5 or keep this one? Sorry for the bad lighting, here's the pic.

I was worried about the exact same thing, so I bought it. I need to apply it lightly (emphasis on lightly), blend really well and add a bit of highlighter to make it work. I find that if I add a little NARS orgasm illuminator (or any peachy pink illuminator) then it looks great. When I apply it alone on my skin meh - def can enter muddy/poopy territory.

BTW I have read some posters are having issues with the texture of this product. It applies on me the same as the other cream blushes, but I use my fingers and not a brush.

The texture of my Cheeky was no different from my other Chanel blush créme. I use my MAC 131 to tap it on and blend it out.

Oh my Timmi. It's hard to see what you're referring to but I would exchange it in a heartbeat!

Hi Medgal07. I'm probably just OC. The middle line where it says Chanel I'm thinking should run straight across (like 3:00 and 9:00 on the clock) but mine's more like 2:30 and 8:30.

Hahaha . I ordered from chanel.com and I'm so lazy when it comes to returning stuff.

ooohhh, all the Cheeky discussion makes me want to wear it tomorrow!

Oh yes I see that now. I've never returned anything to chanel.com but I would if I needed to. You paid good money for the
product and you should be totally happy with it.

I'm wearing Cheeky today and I love the natural sunkissed healthy look. I also have a bit of rosiness on my cheeks and some pink blushes emphasize my pores. I know I said I'm not going to buy a BU but wearing it today, i already know this will be my summer go-to blush. I may buy a BU, lol! I love it that much.

Hi Medgal! I lost focus on this thread for being distracted with another lol. How are you feeling? Hope all is better! Did you receive your ido's yet? If so, what do you think of Mirifique?

Awww thank you so much!

I'm feeling better thanks!
I did get my IDOs. Utopia which I hadn't planned to get arrived today. I LOVE them all but Mirifique is the only one that
I've worn so far. It's beautiful---mind you I applied it with my left hand---quite carefully. I can't wait to really use them in the
coming weeks as I gain more use of my right hand.

 

[Medgal07]

It appears to pull pink on you too---is that accurate?

 

[ALivingDoll]

Thats great! Im glad you really like them!
