You have certainly given me a bigger dilemma! Now I cannot choose between Caresse and Angelique I'm NC30 olive skinned, it does look more natural compared to pink blushes (which stand out a bit more). AAAA, what's a girl to do!Chanel has some lovely pink JC blushes. One of my favorites is Pink Explosion #64, a blue pink. Sakura is also a pretty yellow pink but it might have been limited
edition, and the finally, Innocence is a beautiful pale pink.
Love the way you made 'a believer' out of the BF!!!!
OR the Camelia blush, which when you use the two colors together (so not just the light only or dark only) the kind of pink I go for.
I'll definitely look into Innocence, but overal I don;t love pale pinks too much, they either do not show up well or can make me look a bit washed out.

caresse is very light and probably you would have to build the colorYou have certainly given me a bigger dilemma! Now I cannot choose between Caresse and Angelique I'm NC30 olive skinned, it does look more natural compared to pink blushes (which stand out a bit more). AAAA, what's a girl to do!

Hi everyone!
For those of you who got Envol: what type of brush or applicator do you use? I'm not really wearing it much until spring, but I've done some experimenting with it and found it tricky to apply smoothly (definitely harder to work with than other illusion d'ombre shades I have). Is that just its nature or have you guys had any luck?
Thanks!

I happen to have Evol. I apply it with a small concealer brush----in small amounts, building to my desired amount, if I'm wearing it as a shadow.
I'm less careful it I'm wearing it as a base and in that case, I use less product .

I got almost the whole collection a couple of weeks ago, and I'm quite happy with it, there are some very interesting pieces such as la flamboyante and phenix,ttwo high quality showstoppers. I also like the camelia plus caresse combo. The eye palette is quite a miss, in my opinion: the colours don't work well together, and the overall looks is strange, with too many colours. But or blanc is A-mazing. Med, any suggestion for a glorious smoky eyes with the palette?

We made some of the same selections!!!! It seems like this collection happened so long ago, perhaps because the spring 2015 collection is front & center right now.
As for the E/S quint, I've worn it two ways so far. Once with the gold as the primary color and and once with the black as the primary color, in a classic smokey eye looks.
I'll have to document the details beyond the lid colors (gold/black) because I construct the look as I go, and as my mood dictates.

It's true, we are thrilled by the new collection and forget that the correct time to wear the holiday collections is right now. Anyway, you've just reminded me a tutorial by mallory, she started her make by painting her lid with the gold nuance and the built her smoky: I'll try this way. But you have some ideas, please share!
