​Hi Aradhana. So nice to see you!!!!! Glad you're loving 'So Close' I have a real weakness for Chanel JCs and this one does not disappoint.

Hi Medgal! What a wonderful surprise - so glad I popped into this thread! now i see where everybody's hanging out of late!

Hey ICL....where is everybody??? I purchased the exact same thing....So Close, the orange blush and the No 3 RL. I also ordered the Rosy Gold highlighter. I'm trying to be good, but when has that ever worked!!!!!

The Queen of Hauls has returned It is a pleasure to see you here again! It may be much quieter here, however it is so much easier to keep up with several threads at once. Hope we continue to see you when time permits

Hello & hugs, Miss Tania. It's so good to see you. Queen of hauling??? That title goes to my younger sister, Elegant One, from whom I've taken a few lessons!!!
I'm a bit rusty in the makeup department. I've been lax when it comes to keeping up w/collections but I have managed to keep up w/my Guerlain Balls & Chanel JCs.
It's good to be back.

I have been wearing the hell out of my Rouge Noir kohl....so glad I bought a backup at the time. It’s my absolute favorite, and I’m close to finishing my first one! I wish the kohl and mascara were permanent. I’m still sad I don’t have more of the mascara...that and the ultra Noir were the best!!

 

[Medgal07]

​Oh I'm right there with you on this one Allie. I LOVE Rouge Noir Kohl & the mascara & the IDO. I love just about everything that was in that collection. I think it was one of my favorites.

Medgal So good to see you again. I'm soo happy to hear that the construction of your makeup room is going well. I am soo jealous! I am running out of space but that doesn't seem to stop me! Just got a CP for the new Chanel lion and les chiffres highlighters. Also just picked up the Chanel No 5 Gold Fragments. It is gorgeous! Highly recommend it to all No 5 lovers!

 

[JerseyGirl]

Meddy!! So happy to see you hear again. I hope all your construction dreams come true...the whole process sounds intense. make-up is the happy distraction!

Hello Anahita It"s really good to see you too!! I'm embarrassed by the size of my makeup collection. Every time I try to purge /cull it, I convince myself that I NEED everything. I have reduced my purchases because at this point I'm packing things away. Enjoy your awesome Chanel purchases!!!!

Hi there JerseyGirl!!! Thank you!!! I hope all is well with you. So far, the worse part is waiting for building permits. The design process is fun but after awhile swatches and finishes start to look the same and we just can't make another decision and relinquish to our design team. I'm expecting to come out of this process w/ a few unwanted wrinkles.

My burnt coral blush arrived today. Haven't swatched it yet, but wowza is it pretty in the pan!!!

Have you swatched or worn Burnt Coral yet?
It's caught my eye...but I'd like to hear what you think of it!

I love it! I think I said previously it seems like it would be similar to Alezane and Canaille, but I don't own either of those to compare for you.

[Estereofonica]

The Holiday collection has finally arrived to my town and I've bought the only Silver Screen (soooo beautiful!) and Legendary Green (the Stylos Yeux are my favourites eyeliner!) they have brought. I've tried the blush (very pretty, I think that I "need" it) and the lipsticks (but I have so many reds). The eyeshadow is bright and elegant, I'm happy.

 

[Icecaramellatte]

I tried the No. 3 lipstick last night. I don't know how they are calling this a brown red. It is not. It is nice though. My lips have been very dry lately but this still felt quite comfortable on. I did like the orange red on but I don't know if I'll get it.

 

[Estereofonica]

It's very pretty, but I didn't fall in love at first sigth...
