Completely agree with Miss QQ -- this thread has gotten me so much more interested in Chanel! It is amazing how fast your collection can grow when you share that passion on this board!

I have Mythic and I love it! It's such a pretty nude color. But not at all chalky looking thanks to the little bit of shimmer!

Hi Shypo!


Hi Elegant! How are you? Have all deadlines passed, at least for now? How was your Mother's Day? I hope you had a fabulous weekend.....I'm heading to Boston so will likely be 'absent' for a few days, but will look forward to catching up on the posts! I'm also hoping to visit the Chanel boutique while I'm there

..... if I can get a few minutes to myself!

Well, the major deadline is over, but there are always more down the road. I wasn't able to be with our son, but spent a lot of great time on the phone with him

Hubby took me shopping to cure the blues a little.

Well, have fun in Boston! I'm glad you're here

Re: Chanel Discussion & Must Haves

I popped by a Chanel counter today to pick up Riviera n/l and happended to swatch Mythic. On its own, it looked like it might be a bit sheer on me, but then I layered it over Natural l/l. That is on my list now, but need to take a break, so I'll have to wait a few weeks!

Also had a look at the serums. Anyone here tried out any of these? If so, which one? There are a few, so it's all kind of confusing! Years ago I used to use a pink one that I loved, actually finished it off. It's been long discontinued, but wouldn't mind trying something else out seeing as there are a few of you here that really like the skincare products.

I really want Riviera! I love hot pink toes for summer!
Is Natural l/l kind of like MAC Stripdown liner? I need to check out Mythic, too . . .

I have worn Mythic with Natural and with MAC's Naked. Natural is very close to my natural lip colour whereas Naked is much paler. Depending on how pale I want my lips to be, I will use either of the l/l. I have Mythic test card but I want the full sized lipstick to bring out. Mythic will be mine by the end of this week!

And I love Natural l/l!

I wore Mythic with Natural and topped off with Fashion Scoop last week and my eye makeup was done with Smoky Eyes. For my cheeks, I wore Prim & Proper and Shell Pearl.

I really hope you enjoy your goodies, and you'll have to let us know what you think!!

Oh awesome, you have to let us know what you get! I'm really interested in the skincare, too. I've been using a few NARS products recently and I like them, but the price point is about the same as Chanel and I could easily transition over if need be.

I love this thread!! You ladies in this thread in particular are so joyful and full of life it's a pleasure to come here daily and "catch up". Besides, it's wonderful to find a home with other people who are as enamored/obsessed/easily enabled with make-up and skincare as I am.
yes.gif


A Chanel smiley would be awesome!! Or one of these with the logo:

Natural has more pink in it than Stripdown. Love it and Mythic too! Actually...Mythic and Naive are the only 2 RAs I force myself to deal with the RA scent for!

I was on the hunt for Naive a while ago. I was sad to find out it had been discontinued (or maybe it was LE?). It looked like a great pinky nude color. I will have to get my hands on Mythic for sure!!

I picked up Rose Petale today, to use with Mythic, in hopes that it will make me look like Emma Watson.

I'm getting Mythic
lol.gif
I'm so happy you got Riviera np - its the happiest color!

I love the Ultra Correction Serum in the smokey grey/brown containers. I mostly love how it makes the
decolletage (upper booby chest/neck area
th_LMAO.gif
) look so soft silky & youthful. Youthful being the key word for me. Actually I love the whole Ultra Correction line the best. Get lots of sample packets to try first, thats what I did. I LOVE LOVE the Chanel skin care products - they are worth every penny imo.
