Chanel Summer 2011

[Monsy]

I want both bronzers Not that i need them....

Karla's scoop on the summer collex just popped: http://karlasugar.net/2011/01/sneak-peek-chanel-summer/

Ugh, I cannot love that promo image more. The beach hair and the lips and the nails, LOVE!! My only issue would probably be that I know I don't need more pinks in my stash.

My list is probably Bronze Rose & Aurore glossimer. And if I have no self-control, Pink Peony glossimer too.

I wonder if the glossimer in the pic is Aurore....if so I must have it!

 

[euphrosyne_rose]

I think I'm on the Mimosa bandwagon UNLESS it ends up being just a cream. I like my n/p to have a bit of shimmer or iridescence to it. As for the rest of it, all 3 glossimers are calling my name, especially Aurore. I think all 3 would look very spring/summer like and would go well with my skintone. I'm trying to get out of using MAC glosses b/c regardless of how I like MAC, the texture (i.e. stickiness) of alot of them just isn't my favorite. I'll be looking forward to trying some new things.

I'm really looking forward to this collection. I even want to try the Bronze Rose bronzer and the glossimers. Still loving Morning Rose, can't wait to see that one!

Love the promo pic! The model is the same as the one for Spring. Why is the duo named Khaki-Discret instead of Khaki-Clair?

 

[Winthrop44]

I'm loving the promo too!

the light side looked more cream/yellow to me than the Khaki duo does irl (Clair is really white):

I was thinking it was just the photo, but now I see in Karla's info on the summer collection the light side of the Khaki duo is described as soft green!

 

[Miss QQ]

Thanks for pointing that out. It would be interesting to know if this duo is perm or LE or it is replacing Khaki-Clair.

I am drooling over those glossimers! The quad looks gorgeous on the model, but I don't know that I could pull off that green color. I am dying to see the polishes also

 

[stv578]

Ugh, the summer collection is stunning! I will have to cut my list down for the spring collection! My preliminary list based on Karla's pics...

Corail bronzer
Pink Peony glossimer
Pensee glossimer
Lilium quad
Morning Rose n/p

That means my spring haul will be limited to the peach polish, Jersey Rose, the jc and the quad.

I know I have far too many glossimer's already, but I've been so happy with the last few that I've purchased (Pleasing, Charming and Pink Teaser) and actually use them a lot! (Have Pleasing on right now!).

Michelle, you could totally pull off the green in that quad, it looks quite light, and it'll be stunning with the brown.

The SA at the Chanel counter told me the other day that this promo pic was the one for the spring collection!!! I knew what the actual promo pic looked like, so I was confused, but didn't say anything to her!

 

[Camnagem]

Oooh...so much pretty!

On my list so far:
Bronze Rose
All 3 Glossimers
Bronze Corail (maybe, I think this may be too dark for me)
Morning Rose NP (maybe, I have a ton of pink and rose polishes, this will have to be amazing!)

The glossimers look gorgeous! I'm pretty sure I'll have a hard time narrowing down my list.

 

[Almus]

Besides, if you zoom in the image at karla's you can see a little legend on the left bottom corner about what products are limited edition and which ones are repromote. The duo is not set as neither one nor another =D

My list is comprising Bronze Coral and Aurore Glossimer by now. Let's see what happens whaen the swatches arrive!

 

[pinkrose398]

Allglam has the nasty habbit of taking pictures from other blogs and put her own watermark on them as if they were hers. Bad bad bad.

I found the photos on eBay and posted up on my blog too: http://maddyloves.wordpress.com/2011/01/18/preview-chanel-summer-2011-collection-with-photos/
But I didn't watermark them. How unethical of her to do that =/

 

[Shypo]

I am just 'meh' on this collection - I tend to like more true or blue greens as opposed to yellow-greens......but the glossimers and the bronzing powder are maybes. Perhaps I'll save some money on this collection

. I am, however, stoked for the RC Shines......

 

[stv578]

Is there a tentative date for this collection?

 

[greatscott2000]

^ last year Bloomies got the summer collection in April.
I'm really looking forward to the Bronze Corail and Mimosa nail polish.
I was hoping for more punchy bright lippies like Genial and Super with this collection. I love Genial and didn't snap up Super fast enough because its long gone.

 

[User38]

I ordered Super.. long ago and far away, and got a the wrong colour.. Superior.. or something.. lol.

When I tried to send it back they told me it was gone too.. so I kept the Superior something and it is a good colour for me surprisingly.. ohwait maybe it is called Surprise.. hell I never know names of products just textures, smells and base colour.

Anyway I have Genial and its not too genial on me.. in fact it's kind of ordinary peach. My skin needs a touch of pink in whatever to make my complexion zing a bit.


back to zinging.. lol.. techissues again.. grrrrrrrr

 

[lunadestella]

I was wondering if one of you sweet ladies in the know could help me out.

I just saw the description for Pensée on Karlasugar and I'm pretty sure that's Pensée in this picture:

http://karlasugar.net/2011/01/sneak-peek-chanel-summer/chanel-summer-products/

My question is, for anyone who's been fortunate enough to see Pensée beforehand, how does it compare to Nakkar from the Spring collection? Are they really similar? Or not at all?

I like the way Nakkar looks on me but I haven't gotten it yet. I don't know whether to wait for Pensée and get it instead or to just go ahead and get Nakkar.

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

 

[Bonitinha]

^^ It might be tough to tell until the swatches come out. Pensee looks like it has much more of an orange tone to it. Temptalia described Nakkar as a reddened watermelon with gold shimmer.

 

[Miss QQ]

I wasn't fast enough and couldn't get hold of Super too. I agree, I think Pensee looks more orange, maybe more pigmented than Nakkar too, but we have to see the swatches first!
