Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
Meg -- thank you -- how did you know I was plotting my next Chanel order??
A girl's gotta plan! haha
Cheryl -- I loved your FOTD on the other thread -- so gorgeous -- you are a PRO!!
Bis -- thanks -- you ladies inspire me every day! I am trying to break out some colors I don't use often!
Susanne -- someone recommended Plumage to me a while back -- so glad because otherwise I don't know if I would have picked it out. Do you find it easy to work with?

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
Hi ladies! What a busy week it has been here. Not much computer time and I have been dying to check in and chat with all of you.
I finally picked up my Nordies preorders and I LOVE the Rouge Noir Inimitable mascara. The formula is amazing and the color is great for making my green eyes pop. My MA told me the color is similar to the old Vamp shade they used to do in one of their mascara formulas (I don't know which one). She said she never understood why it was dc'd as they couldn't keep it in stock.
I also got some samples that I am loving. One is for the makeup remover and the other is from the new Line Correcting line (I got the day cream in that one). I can see now why y'all love these products.
It's ironic that the subject of Izzys came up. I stumbled upon their website a couple of weeks ago but have not placed an order yet because I am concerned about product authenticity. For those of you who have ordered from them, do you know if they guarantee product authenticity?
As a side note my other preorder purchases this week were all of the LE Lippmann polishes (All the Jazz trio, Across the Universe n/p and Bad Romance n/p). They are all gorgeous and probably highly impractical but I love them. This girl can't get enough glitter sometimes.

Hi April! Glad you're back!
As far as I can tell, they are authentic! I don't know whether they guarantee product authenticity or not, but I've ordered several Chanel items from them and have no complaints whatsoever.......
I cannot remember who was looking for Silex, but I picked up an extra one today - if someone wants it, I'll ship it for cost + shipping......so let me know!

I've only gotten 1 order from Izzy's so far, but my item was authentic. I found this on Izzy's FAQ section:

Oh wow, that lipcolor is so gorgeous!
And your eyes look amazing, too! Thank you so much
I need to add that to my list along with Rose Comete! Do you love the Chanel lipliners? I've never tried them (but I have a bazillion of MAC, etc).

Aw, thanks!
This was fun to do cuz I'm such a pink girl!
I have to say that I am not loving the Chanel lip liners. I have Nude (which I like the color of) and Pink Sugar, but overall they just don't do it for me. I much prefer my MAC and MUFE liners!
Exquise and Rose Comete would look sooooo pretty on you!!!

Hi ladies! I've been lurking because I am busy and also don't have much to update. I enjoy reading your posts and seeing the pictures.
Today I finally use my sample of Dragon RAL and it is such a rich red on me, a little dark, and makes me look pale and I kind of like that.
I also like that it is neutral and wearable, not warm or blue based, which can be tricky on me.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
Cheryl, beautiful as always...I love Exquise on you!
Miss QQ - Glad to see you! Hope your busy days get a little less so soon.
bis - That sounds like fun! What's on the list?
So I mentioned a while back that my Chanel gift box was different and here it is (don't mind the NP swatch project happening on the left, or the water packs that need to be put away after grocery shopping, lol):
It's not made from normal clothing/gift wrapping box stuff either. It's STURDY and super thick, smooth, shiny (the bottom is shiny gold!) and...awesome!

So far Amethyst. And I want to look at the Murano quad (is it too close to the Photorealism quad?) and the Dragon and Phonix RAL.
Wow, I thought it was worse.

Wow, what was in there? Looks very expensive and shiny and I-want-it.

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves
MisQQ -- you are lucky to be able to wear Dragon. I can't seem to pull off reds! I love the way they look on other people though!!
Bis -- I hope you end up with some fun things -- keep us posted!
Meg -- that box is beautiful! I just want to open that box! I always keep the packaging
I'm off to go get ready and go enjoy some cheesecake later with the hubs . . .
