Ok...double bummer here. My Initiation IdO arrived as a hockey puck and Accent irritates the heck out of my cheeks, as if it contains bismuth (except that it doesn't, so it must be the shimmer particles). Sigh. Accent just looks brown on me anyway. I would be much more disappointed that it bothers my skin if those pretty mauvey tones had shown up on me. I guess the yellow in my skin is to blame on that one. Geesh. Hope I love Radieuse!
So sorry to hear this!

Yes, its gorgeous, perfect for fall. It looks like a more intense Rivoli from her swatches. I'm very happy that I can pass Desiree because I like the RC formula more. I love Rivoli!

I just came here to say the same! It has been AGES since Chanel has brought out something that interests me, but Desiree! Must have it!

Oh bummer! So sorry it irritated your skin. So frustrating. How did you end up liking Radieuse? I liked it when I tried it on in the store, but the lady totally talked me out of it! She said it washed me out. I was thinking it was a pretty soft nude lavender pink. So I just ended up with Suprenante and a liner from the Moire collex. I am loving Precieuse from Cafe Makeup swatches, too . . . . and I might order Radieuse online :)

My Radieuse won't get here until Friday, but washing me out is exactly what I'm afraid of. I think both of the Velvets look stunning on Liz on Cafemakeup!

That sounds like a good reason to me. It's also the name of one of my favorite Keith Urban songs so I think I need it too.

I don't think Radieuse will wash you out at all. I mean it's light--but it's not that light.

This may already have been answered... What color lipstick is on the model on Chanel's page for this collection? I adore it.

I'll be anxious to hear what you think of it in person Miss QQ. I'm looking for some fall ls shades that are a bit muted/softer without being too brown.

Here's Sabrina's review of the IdOs. I hope my Initiation doesn't arrive as a hockey puck because I do like the color.

Thank you for this link ! The two new Id'O look great to me, I think I will get them.

All your swatches make me want everything, but I cannot afford all.

I also wanted to ask you ladies if you have any idea of how Accent compares to MAC's Lavish Living mineralize blush from Divine Night ? Any of these two are out here in France, it would be very nice if I could avoid buying both lol. Thanks in advance !

Lavish Living (Temptalia):


I don't know which one I prefer

Now the palette is no longer available for preorder on Saks.com.
I don't think it EVER was, if that makes you feel better. I think I saw it right after they did it--like w/in a few hours or so anyway, and that's what always kept happening to me. It said 'exclusive' to Saks and pre-order and when I would click on it, it would say 'Sorry, this item is not available'

It just allowed me to add it to my shopping bag. But I didn't check out though. My Nordie SA called me today to say it would be available Oct 21 and she would ship it to me then.

Thanks for the info. I went to Bloomies, Nordies and Neiman Marcus today and no one had any info on it.
