I'm late to this party but the collection only gets released tomorrow here in the UK...

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should purchase? I'm a pretty pale Dior 010/Chanel Vita lumiere aqua 10.

Also has anyone tried or tested the glosses?

I'm the same shade of ghostly pale as you but so far I've only tried the two nail polishes which are amazing! Lovely Beige and Precious Beige are both gorgeous shades for us pale gals. And the formula is so much better on these than the other Chanel polishes I have. If you loved Rose Cache which seems to have disappeared, these are a must

I'm in the UK, I haven't headed out to see the collection yet, but the blush sticks seem to be a favourite here, specifically the pink one which will suit your skintone I think. I want that, and Beige Rose le vernis.

I have to agree, although I'm not a pale girl (LOL) I'm loving Lovely Beige---the name really suits the N/P.

I am serious Pink Casper. Dior 010, MAC NW10, YSL BR10. I got the glosses, all the nail polishes and the pink stick blush. Love them all, no regrets.

I thought I was done with this collection, but now i'm pining for the bronze color stick. I'm so happy with mine in coral.

Someone convince me to get (or not to get) either way.

I have been thinking about the pink strip powder after seeing it 2 weeks ago with the summer collection. I tried it on my cheeks, so beautiful and smelt so nice. Its too pink for as an all over powder for me. Is it LE or perm? Do you apply the blush stick over foundation? Does it rub the foundation off? I haven't had much luck with blush sticks, they mess up my foundation when I apply them straight from the stick.

According to the Chanel web site, the Les Beiges powders are LE.

I apply the blush UNDER my foundation, giving me a look of cheek--color--from--within. For me, it's a fail-proof way to apply any cream foundation.

Meddy is correct the powders are LE. I use the blush stick on top of my foundation. No problems with it getting on clothes.

I agree the product is very nice on the lips as far as feel and moisturizing. Just not worth the cost of a basic lip balm with no color payoff. I did not get the color you got on my arm. But it could be a keyboard back issue (as in my fault)
Yeah the lip balm is not a must have. I won't return it because laziness but no one should feel remorse for skipping.

I didn't get a blush stick but I either use a beauty blender or my fingers to apply cream blushes. When I use duo-fiber brushes or apply straight from the stick it always takes my foundation off.

I use a MAC 130 Duo Fiber Mineralize Foundation brush to swipe the blush stick and stipple the product onto my cheeks. Precision is not required because I'll be then
stippling my foundation on with a Chanel Blending Foundation Brush(Stippling) #7 or MAC # 187 Duo Fiber Liquid Foundation brush. I put foundation everywhere else
on my face, saving the blush area for last because there's less foundation on the brush at this point. I stipple lightly over the blush to the desired degree of coverage or
how much blush I want to show. Easy Peazy! The look is polished and pretty and blush doesn't look like it's just sitting in your face. This technique was been life
changing for me as far as cream blush goes.
