I'm not exactly a purple lover but there's something really pretty about these purple items---guess I'll learn to love it now
I loved the way the products were presented there too!!!

Yeah the purples would look awesome on hazel and green eyes.

Nice swatch! So I take it this is an actual highlighter rather than a bronzer. I didn't get Dentelle Precieuse because the colour didn't show up on me (just the sparkles) so I'm hoping Lumiere d'ete one would work better.

It's an illuminating blush.
Highlighters got more shimmer. This one is a very subtle sheen.

Great pics of the bronzer! Has anybody purchased or swatched the RCS? I'm only excited for the lippies because the other items aren't really my kind of color. But I guess they are easy to dupe? Thank you.
Went to Bergdorfs today, they had the collection out, sorry didn't label anything, here you go!
I posted them, didn't label them but you can see the 4 RCS.

oh thanks, I must have been blind. The one on the top right is the only color that would really suit me, but idk. Maybe I'll rather try one of the new rouge cocos, Cecile and Edith have really caught my eye. Although RCS is my very favorite formula, this time the colors don't really call my name. Summer collections never really contain a lot of things that I want.the bronzer is super pretty, but it won't work with my skintone.

I got the purple stylo and Terana too. Got a chance to swatch three polishes and there are notable differences in formula which I thought I would mention. Terana, as a somewhat metallic does show nail flaws though top coating helped that a lot. Lavanda is a crelly-- first coat a bit patchy but second coat smooths it out. Mediterranee is practically a one coater-- super formula. Terana is most unique color-wise in a way that does not come through in photos. Through described as a chocolate brown-- it is more of a chocolate malt, with silvery, pinky undertones. The blue was most dramatic and flattering on me, but I still love the subtlety and color shifts in Terana. Debating whether to keep Terana and get Mediterranee or choose between them.
Thank you for your review for Terana. That and Mediterranee are 2 that catch my eyes. Now that the collection has launched, I'm debating with myself if I should splurge for another chanel nail polish. But your description for Terana sounds really gorgeous
The peach one is Intrepide. I hae. Cecile RC, it's gorgeous!

Thanks for telling me which name it is. So the color description, "shimmering violet", is kinda off, huh? Didn't expect that to happen to Chanel 'cause inappropriate color descriptions are rather Mac's thing, lol.
I'll have a look at Intrepide in person, then. The last summer collection launched pretty late here because of the Collection Variation that was released around April/May. So I'm not sure how long I'll have to wait to make a decision. Otherwise, I'll just go for Cecile. I've already swatched it two or three times and it's beautiful indeed.

Those are the two I am most drawn to as well, Figarro, and btw, nice cat photo. I'm a big tabby fan. There is no doubt that Mediterranee is more striking, but more dupable probably. Terana is subtler and understated. Some might see it as meh. The way the color looks different in different lights makes it interesting to wear-- it's neutral with an element of surprise. Other people will probably notice Mediterranee more.
I also picked up the YSL Full Metal Shadow in Taupe Drop which is the same type of shade, dancing between taupe, silver, and mauve. It is similar to The GA Eye tint Shadow, which is cooler and leans more purple. I was trying to decide between the two.
