Just give me some kind of color description. She has been really nice, but...

I thought you would love reading the Holy Grail comment ;) They are shipping fast, however, they also had tech glitches. Fortunately mine got fixed before it shipped. I always wonder if they look at my order history & think...lady, please...why can't you just order everything at one time

I just checked my tracking for the blush etc. & it will be here Wed. - so 2 day shipping!
LOL! I'm surprised they don't just take the initiative to charge our cards for the whole collection and send us everything!

So I am thinking about ordering Hyde Park, Chelsea, and Brompton Road. I am hesistating on Brompton Road b/c it costs $80. Should I get Brompton Road or the new harmony blush from the spring collection? I can only get one right now.

Also I want some of the other products from the spring collection, but I need to wait until after the holidays. Hopefully some of it will still be in stock.

The Brompton is a very very light pink

The Harmony Blush is going to be much brighter in color

So, I think it depends on what color you would wear more.

I would probably wear the spring blush more. Part of me though is lemming for BR b/c it is limited, exclusive, online only, etc. etc. I know that this is not a good reason to purchase, but those buzz words tend to suck me in.

Fortunately (believe it or not) it is so pricey which stopped me from buying right away. Forced me to actually think about it. LOL.

Plus 4 of my close relatives have birthdays w/in one week of Christmas, so $$ is always scarce right about now.

Thanks for the links elegant! Saw crystalis007's pics the other day, and it cinched me not getting Flirt RCS. It barely shows up on her. Grenat is a pass now, it looks more purple than I'd like.

Ernie - I hope you come back to read ;) Is the darker color shadow in the quad like a raisin or burgundy brown kind of shade? The chanel lady said it looked purple to her & I don't think so from what I've seen???

Just got off the phone with Chanel CS who told me that the RC Baume is exactly the same as the RC Shines, except that it is colorless.

Where did we read there would be colored baumes? She said no to that.

Well, on the web site they both say they contain "Hydratendre Complex". But nothing extra in the baume...according to this lady anyway.

I think there was speculation on there being colored Baumes due to someone's early report on the May and Summer collections, but I saw the pamphlets for those myself and confirmed that we're getting a bunch of new Shines instead. Which I guess is the same as getting colored Baumes, since they're the same.

Just got my shipping confirmation from Chanel, yay!

I haven't wanted a lippy so badly recently as I have wanted Hyde Park, and I will be seriously bummed if it doesn't work on my skin tone. Is Chanel.com pretty good about exchanges/returns?

Yes, they include a free return label but you can't exchange, just return (and place a new order sparately on the web site if you want).
