Has anyone tried the Les Beiges new glosses or the lip balm? I want to know if they're worth it! x

I love the new Les Beige lipglosses. I bought the nude one and then bought a backup of it.

I purchased the glosses. I like them, would I purchase a backup? No, but they are a nice delicate color for summer. The lip balm was no great shakes at least for me.

Thank you both! I guess I'll have to go and see them in person now

Awesome Monsy!!! Mine arrived today and I had to test drive it-----I got many compliments!!!

Which of the 4 is your favorite?

Eau fraiche. I love love love it. So unique and wears amazingly on me.
But i get most compliments from others when i wear tendre - i am not crazy about it. it has some very annoying note

Do any of the UK girls know why the glossimer's have disappeared from the Chanel UK website? I've noticed that they're disappearing off the stands in stores as well... :/

Do you have restrictions against parabens there by any chance? They do contain parabens so that could be a reason.

I presume not because the glossimer's in the les beiges collection are being released here and you can still buy ones that are still on the shelves, but i've noted that there have be no re-ordering of glosses.

I'm thinking outside the box with this but... laws have been passed in Europe that products tested on animals can no longer be sold here, but the companies can still test on animals, those products just have to be sold outside of Europe. Maybe it has something to do with that? Or not... I have no idea

That's a thought. Or maybe Chanel is just reformulating them in general and the new formulation isn't ready yet. Are there any SAs you could ask?

Or it could be as simple as that! I have asked but they've said to me that the head offices haven't mentioned anything, the only thing they know is that they can't order the stock.

So typical of Chanel not to inform the people who work for them. I just don't get that, but I've heard similar things from the online CS folks about various things over the years.

I may need to get Eau Fraiche next!!! I wore Vive again today and upset my dentist's office--the staff went nuts over it and a few were going online to order it before I left.

I'm so impatient too! I've already ordered Eau Fraiche, but I ordered it from Nordies instead of Chanel. I'll get the 6% cash back and a GWP that I wasn't expecting!!!! I love hearing that it's your fav too. Monsy pushed me over the cliff and you just confirmed that jumping (on the Eau Fraiche bandwagon) was a great move. Thank you!!!!

About Eau Vive---when I wore it for the first time yesterday I ran errands and the young man at the market who was bagging my groceries said, OMG, you smell really good. As I left the store he yelled, "keep smelling good." He was just beside himself. The cashier and another patron just laughed!!!

We're patient---as long as things happen RIGHT NOW!!!!

I got Eau Vive from Chanel.com because at least for now, it's their's exclusively. Cash back always makes the medicine go down----a lot easier!!!
