Me too!
Anyway, that burgundy shade in Eclosion-- it's awesome. The waterproof eye pencil in Grenat is a perfect match for it as well (on my skin tone anyway). The look was quite similar to this gorgeous woman's look on her blog. http://shahadakarim.blogspot.com/2012/04/fotd-smokin-burgundy.html ^^okay I'm posting from my iPad and having issues with the link. Sorry. You may have to cut and paste. Have fun playing with that palette! I love finding new looks with the quads.

Oh yes I know this blog. She's a member here named Ingenue.
The Ombre Contraste Notorious wil be available in September after all:

I would really, really love to get my hands on this. but I don't think it will happen. I would have to get a CP and also I don't think I can afford it in Sep.

I am still wondering about Notorious........I think I'd have to see someone using it - not the result of the use, but the actual placement on the face, which brushes, etc - as it just seems like such a counter-intuitive color for the cheeks (it doesn't look like a contour color to me). So I guess we shall see!!
tiramisu, congratulations on your first anniversary!! Glad Chanel was there to help you celebrate!!

Thanks Shypo!

According to the UPS tracking, my Blue Illusion collection is out on the truck for delivery. I am waiting, with my face freshly washed, for it to arrive so I can try it out.
I am way too excited about this.
I think I may have a problem. ;-)
EDIT.... I just uploaded the pictures. I'm loving the silvery baby blue that is Destination, and the Bleu Aerien crayon (even though I've never been a fan of this formulation). I may even use a bit of Fantasme on the center of my eyelids -- because I love the sparkle. This will be a fun set for experimenting!

I posted pictures of the products in a personal album. (Being new here, I don't know if I did it right, or if anyone else can see them.)
Alas, time did not work on my side today, so pictures were as far as I got. Tomorrow, though! ;-)

Chanel National MUA John Fussell was in town today. I love him! I had my make-up done by him and my absolute favourite Chanel MUA, Annie Deaver-Faustino.
Feeling spectacularly beautiful, I picked up the reformulation of Sublimage eye cream, Beaute des Cils (mascara base), and the new eye/cheek/contour Notorious, which I have been eagerly awaiting. I am seriously considering a backup of Notorious, because it is such an unusual shade -- it's the kind of thing I love. It is certainly not your average look for cheek/contour... and it is a mysterous surprise on the lids.
Looking forward to the Holiday collection!

Oh, love it! It looks great on her, cannot wait to get it. Naynadines link said September? Did I miss it?
ompom: Weirdly very excited about this one. In MessyWands post it looks like it is in the US Blush formula? I wonder which version we get here, if at all. Did I mention I am excited?!

Best Things in Beauty says it was on chanel.com and sold out very quickly. I find it hard to believe that no one on here saw it, but maybe that's just me. It's a skip for me either way but I think it will be great on you!

Yes, I thought that was odd too. But I ended up going to Saks and picking it up anyway. I've been on a contour kick yesterday. The SA said they were the only ones that had it. Don't know if this is true or not but I went to Bloomies earlier and I did not see it. This was the Saks NYC store if anyone is interested.

I have developed a lemming bordering on an obsession with this. I need to find it, but it hasn't shown up yet at my Chanel counters that I've seen. Unfortunately, I can't hit all of them every day...

I got mine at my Sak's counter. If you have one near you, it may be worth a look.I have developed a lemming bordering on an obsession with this. I need to find it, but it hasn't shown up yet at my Chanel counters that I've seen. Unfortunately, I can't hit all of them every day...
If it's so difficult to find, I'm going to call my Chanel rep to be sure I grab another before they're gone.

If anyone wants to get their hands on Notorious, I just spoke with my Chanel rep at Sak's. (I have her on speed dial! LOL) She has a few left; and if you would be interested in ordering it, she will be happy to help. You can contact me for her number.I have developed a lemming bordering on an obsession with this.
