Chanel Neapolis Spring 2018

[Haven]

We talked about it here last year but I've been seeing even more of that package theft on the news. So terrible

There are stories on the news not only about all the packages being stolen but also about people stealing Christmas decorations off/in front of homes. It is getting beyond ridiculous.

On a much lighter note... My local Nordstrom got in a shipment of the hand cream everyone is raving about. So I got one to try. I also asked about this collection and was told that shipment to stores is being delayed. They didn’t know why.

Unbelievable freakin Grinches! No morals anymore.

Funny, I was just putting my elegant hand cream on right before reading this.

This collection is not for me. If all four lipticks turn up in my country I'll buy the one with a hint of blue (far right).

Has anyone seen any swatches of the blush yet? I'd love to order it, but would like to see it first!

Eh, I couldn't resist the free overnight shipping so I just went ahead & ordered it LOL! It will be lovely I'm sure. I was going to wait & place my order from NM or Nordies but who knows when they will get the collection.

Winthrop - Did you get your order already?

Same here-I ended up ordering it without seeing swatches.
The worst that could happen is I don't like it and end up returning it!

It’s up on chanel.com now. Anyone ordering anything? Any idea how this aqua polish is supposed to compare with Nouvelle Vague? Or is it more like Jade?

Anyone besides me disappointed they couldn't come up with something different?

If you are referring to the polishes, then definitely yes. I think that I already have some close variations of those colors from Chanel.

Even the yellow. Will have to dig it out.

that's my overall feeling about chanel since pica took over. with exception of brow stuff, highlighters, some blushes maybe everything else and especially nail polishes have been disappointing.

Yeah, the aqua looks just like NV but with not as nice a finish, at least in that pic. Oh well.

Added Chanel's demo video to the first post.

My blush is out for delivery! I'm just hoping it isn't the late delivery. It's so awesome that all of my orders from all over the place that were scheduled for delivery for Friday, updated to be delivered today because I won't be here Friday Hubs is so relieved lol

I gave my Chanel yellow np away (unused) to a cute little checkout girl that always loved my Chanel np. She was so happy you would've thought a gave her a million dollars

I just got my order and .... everything is too orange for me. Maybe you'll have better luck on your skin tone @elegant-one.

Yep, sadly I think I am done with them for now.

Oh NO! That's not good. So the blush is not rose!?

Maybe your skin tone can bring some out, but I am neutral to yellow and on me, no.

I just got it. It's more of a pinky coral on me with a light application. So I guess skin tone will make a difference with this blush. I do like it. Stinks it didn't work for you. Not like there won't be another blush.

I'm glad it works for you!! Maybe I'll give it another try tomorrow in different light. In any case you wouldn't have put anything relating to "rose" in the name, would you???
