Chanel Summer 2011

[Hikaru-chan]

I got a chance to see the full collection in person today and it's beautiful.

The bronzers look amazing so do the glossimers but the stand out product by a mile is Mimosa, it's stunning. It's a bright lemon yellow shot trough with a very fine orange shimmer and I can already tell its gonna be an instant sellout.

Quad and eyeshadow duo are nothing special, pretty but not particularly unique.

I also saw the testers for the new fragrance body shimmer gels and new moisturising body mists (eau tendre and eau fraiche) and they are also releasing a limited edition 200ml of the Coco Madamoiselle EDP.

I can't wat to get my hands on the bronzers! Thank you very much for the info Hikaru-Chan!

Thanks very much for the info Hikaru-chan! I'm not much of a summer collection girl, but I'm definitely lemming Mimosa and the Beige n/p- those will be mine for sure!

Hello Hikaru-Chan! Thank you for the info! I must check out the bronzers, and sign me up for Mimosa too!! I agree, I've been a bit lukewarm on the quad....

Thanks for the link, MarionneB! Mimosa looks like a great yellow and it does not appear to be streaky. Great find!

I'm reserving judgment on the quad, but really can't see myself wearing Mimosa. It is a beautiful yellow though. Thanks for the link!

 

[purrtykitty]

Beautiful yellow! I'd definitely wear it as a pedi polish!

The yellow polish looks so pretty -- not sure if it would go with my skintone, but I love how fresh and summery it looks. I am getting impatient to see what the glossimers look like!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

wow I'v been gone so long and now there are swatches I'm getting excited about summer already. I want Mimosa for sure (though I've never met a yellow that works on my peachy undertone, but this might be the one) and I also light the sound of the bronzing powders, especially Bronze Rose

I thought I'd never like Mimosa, but now I can see maybe using it on my toes. I like the micro shimmer. Probably would clash horribly with my skin tone though-- seems like it would look really good if you have tan skin.

After seeing Mimosa (thanks for the link, Marionne B!), I'm not sure it will work on me - it's quite pretty, but not sure I could pull it off. Like Karin, I'd probably do it as a pedi polish, but I don't think that justifies it for me.

The bronzers, however are a different story (Bronze Rose has my name ALL over it!), and I'm anxious to see the glossimers (Aurore, Pink Peony, and Pensee all sound amazing and will probably make it to my list)!

You lovely ladies have probably already seen these posts, but just in case:

And I have to know what color that RCS is in the second post!!!! Still reserving judgment on the quad.....

[RedVelvetX]

I can't wait to see the swatches of the glossimers and bronzers. For some reason i'm just not crazy about the nail polish colors.

 

[User38]
