I think i'm going to buy my first chanel polish. Today i was looking for Mimosa, but of course it wasn't available anywhere. I gave my phone number at the last shop i went to, because they will get some more at the end of this week/beginning next week! They lady let me see the tester and i really like the colour. I love bright colours for summer! I'm also thinking i should try the Rouge Allure Laque in Dragon, because that colour looks gorgeous. I will try to be good and buy that one after my vacation.

I'm really excited about Mimosa! And now i really want Dragon, luckily that's in the permanent line.
i hope that they get it back in so you can buy it! i shall keep my fingers crossed for you!
guys i am so in love with the quad. i have been wearing it for the past 12 hours (nearly 13 now!!) and there is no creasing and minimal fading. i used the light green on my lid, deep green in the crease and the pink as a highlight. also i may be crazy but the pink is actually my favourite colour out of the 4! i swear this shadow as a highlighter on my really looks natural and makes my brow bone area look soft and glowy. the quad was a dream to blend too

[quote name="Miss QQ" url="/forum/thread/171803/chanel-summer-2011/1260#post_2122840"] ^^ That is the question I want to ask too. I think those who have BC really like it. I'm likely to be passing BC though, mainly because I want the guerlain bronzer.
Lou - we love to share your excitement! No one else can understand how we feel except for makeup fanatics!

It does look a bit more shimmery, which is why I haven't caved and bought it yet. But it seems like people who have it are loving it. I do love my Bronze Rose and don't know if anything can top it

[/quote] Thanks ladies. I think I let reason rule for once. And btw, BC was not shimmery on me, very nice, but I though how big is the difference to the BR?

I am debating on getting BR or Dior's Aurora. I've seen pictures of Aurora and it seems it leans a little on the orange side. I am NC20 so I don't know if it'll look nice on me.

I didn't find BC shimmery either - just right actually. BR & BC are BOTH so beautiful on!
Lou - thats awesome that you love it on. Chanel knows how to do it right & elegantly so.

bis, I have both and use them equally although I bu'd the Rose again just in case -- I tend to use it a bit more but maybe once I get some more colour on my face in summer I will use the Coral a bit more.. fickle. Do you need it -- I thought I did and with as many bronzers as I own, and I own at least 30 last count -- I found that I did not need it, but wanted it and would get good use out of it... It is not the typical bronzer for me.

[/quote] Thanks, them being not your typical bronzer was the only reason I looked at them. The normal bronzers like either like dirt or orange on me (Aurora!). So I guess I'll wear my BC a bit more and see if that will be enough bronzer for me. How are you doing? Hope you are not too busy and still enjoy life

I am NC20, too, and Aurora isn't orange at all on me. I love it, I use it every single day the last two weeks, I'm also thinking to get a back up, because the most of the bronzers go orange, or look unnatural ank like dirt. This one is very natural. I don't have BR, but the MUA at my Sephora tested on me and I didn't like it, it was very pink for me, more like a blush. I liked the BC better.

Lou - I'm so happy to hear you love the quad. I can't see it but I know it looks gorgeous on you. Coincidentally, I wore the quad today too! I know that you planned to wear it today, but when I was picking out what to wear this morning, I unknowingly picked Lilium too.
awww! i bet you looked beautiful too!Lou - I'm so happy to hear you love the quad. I can't see it but I know it looks gorgeous on you. Coincidentally, I wore the quad today too!

I'm so glad it arrived, Lou! You'll have to do a YT vid on it! I loved your last one!

That happens to me almost every morning! I always somehow pick Lilium. I think since the time I got it about month ago I wore other shadows maybe 3-4days. I had to make myself switch to spring quint this morning to break the habit. Lilium seems to be a to go shadow for me. tI goes with almost any oufit color I have, it is sooo universal and flattering.

Khaki D is one of my favorite eye products. So pigmented and effortless! It makes me want more Chanel shadows. I just love it and I'd wear it every day if I didn't have so many more shadows that need my attention.
