I'm so mad because I went to the mall today and I had a few extra seconds on my way out so I zipped around the Chanel counter in Saks and saw this collection hidden in the back section (holy run on sentence). It wasn't in it's usual place for new collections which is right in front when you walk by. It's probably been there for a week and I've walked by it thinking Saks was slipping in their game :eek:hboy: . I had to leave in a hurry so I only got to swatch one of the glossimers and one of the Illusion D'Ombres. I'm pretty sure I'm skipping all of this even though the blush looked nice, but next week I'll have to stop and play with it properly. What rookie put the new collection on the back counter? :nono:

Got to see everything today. I only bought New Moon which is GORGEOUS!!! Its a very sparkley deep Brown with Mauve undertones. I don't mind the sparkles because its so beautiful! You could dab it just above the pupil & it would be stunning. I didn't have fallout. Didn't like the creme blush Cheeky.
The liner is really really pretty. I may get it. It showed up fairly well. It will be beautiful just below or above your regular liner! I will get a couple nail polish I think - Pink Tonic, Tutti Frutti & maybe the lilac. No gloss - too sheer

I was thinking of you the whole time I was swatching the eye liner

The liner is very pretty.Its kind of a soft almost platinum gold. It gets lighter or darker depending on how the light hits it. But that es is so beautiful in person.

I just finished my run & workout & I had none 0 fallout. Not until I took it off with mu remover was there any. I kind of feel like this es has a bit more adhesive base quality to it.

Bought the IdO's, Creme blush, purple mascara, and gold eyeliner. Favorite has to be Mirage, which is just so unassumingly gorgeous. New Moon has that wow factor, but it's not an everyday shade for me like Mirage. Utopia is a nice seasonal color for a light wash on the lids, paired with the gold liner... I will eventually buy the glossimer in Sunny, the orange one, which actually gives a pink grapefruit tint. The cream blush I'm 99% sure is a tweaked formula from the previously released shades. It's less velvety and more creamy. And a little more sheer. I would encourage you to try it out with a bit of Chamade mixed with Soleil liquid on the apples. That said, I hope this is specific to just this release and they switch back for new shades. Has anyone tried layering the polishes with Eastern Light?

If I buy one of the glosses it will be Sunny as well. I love those kinds of shades. I'm anxious to see the IdOs in person. I wonder why no one online seems to have the nail polishes yet even though the stores do.

I can go for sheer sometimes...just not invisible. I may try to find out what liner they paired it with in the promo pic.

Macy's does!!! I bought all the polishes and Mirage from there. I never shop there, but was literally dying waiting for the polishes. I thought I was done, but elegant seems to have convinced me to go back for New Moon and Ambre Dore. Sigh. I've spent WAY too much money the past few days. Oh, and I saw four of them at Bloomingdale's (minus Eastern Light), with some insane wait time before shipping. Which makes sense, since they are part of the same company. I should have my stuff tomorrow I think.

Sure, not a problem. It'll take me a few days to get my actual review done. I'm not sure if I'm going to do them individually or all together. But I can upload a couple pictures here - lol, once I figure out how. I will for sure put them on Instagram.

Mallory 1712 has video out on this collection and she's wearing Cheeky blush and she has a lighter skin tone. Check it out.

Thanks SO much for that! Her cheeky looks much more pinked than the one I saw. The one I swatched looked warm & muddy. Maybe the lights, or too many dirty fingers swatched it

Its really pretty on her. I also like the soft violet iDo which Nordies did not have out..unless it ran off. I'm going to go order the eyeliner
