The eyeliner is the same formula used for the last release. Much better then the old. I had no problems with it.

Weird, I couldn't find it on Saks. Come on Nordstrom! Release the collection already so I can use my notes!

You have to type in Chanel in the search bar then look everything up separately (blush, eyeshadow etc...). Hope that helps!

So Saks in NYC had this out, they are so unpleasant there but I bought the shadow set, blush and highlighter. I wore the e/s set yesterday, perfection, and they go on so smooth, not like some of the previous sets. The highlighter is very pretty but a little goes a long way. Caresse j/c very pretty, very peach, looks nice with a bit of the highlighter over it. For me Volage r/a was too sheer and the or blanc pencil was too hard, I actually have a few of these and they all are a bit rough on my eyes. Didn't see any glosses, were there supposed to be those new click style pens? Anyway I just ran in and out, I hate the cosmetic floor there, they are very pushy, I would buy more if I didn't feel. Harassed.

I just returned my Dior foundation and stopped at the chanel counter. They had just gotten the collection. I took a pic of my swatches in the sunlight, and my face with the blush and highlighter on. The swatches are la flamboyante, volage, and the liner. The liner is mostly gold on me, but I like it anyway. I'm not sure about the blush. Not sure I have the patience to make it show up on me. 'Scuse the crazy look on my face.

Thank you Elegant! I'm a little disappointed. I was dead set on the highlighter, but it is so glittery. I have damn glitter all over my face. I think I'll pass on it. La flamboyante is gorgeous, but I was hoping it would be less pinky. And I'm scared of how light volage is, and I also don't like the glitter in it.

It's definitely a shimmery collection. I felt the same way about the highlighter. It is very pretty when its buffed lightly. Flamboyante is super pretty on your skin

Wow, I think the only thing I wasn't dubious about was Flamboyante, and now hearing it's noticeably pinky is turning me off - I got La Maliceuse RAV earlier this year thinking it was a "pinky red" and it is totally pink on me, no red whatsoever. I think Flamboyante looks pretty swatched on you though.

I do not own the poudree signee, I do remember it though. The new one has more gold/silver vs. poudree had ivory tones in it. I thought the new one would be like the silver highlighter from 2001, and I was totally wrong. Think of the Armani eyeshadow for Fall 2014 being mixed together but about 4 shades lighter. It truly does match the white gold eyeliner perfectly. To me, this new one is very versatile. Hope this helps. The neutral lip should be here tomorrow. I will post it when I receive it.

Phew, that's good to know. I was debating between Dior's and Chanel's, so hearing that it's very sparkly/glittery, I think I'll pass. I'll still check it on in person, hem and haw over it for days, make my husband look at my swatches countless times, and then I'll probably walk away.

The red lipstick is not pink, it is a red-orange. Volage is a sheer nude. Barely shows up on my arm. The red lipstick looks pink due to my super pale skin. It is not. The highlighter is very sparkly. But it is so cool.....The Dior has more sparkle, especially in the lip glosses. Think of glitter on your lips....
