CHANEL Makeup Collection Superstition for Autumn/ Fall 2013

Ladies, brace yourselves for Chanel’s new autumn makeup collection, Collection Superstition that launches in South Africa on the 16th August! Gabrielle Chanel believed in luck. Her private world was filled with talismans, which served both as good-luck charms and sources of inspiration. The Autumn 2013 Collection reinterprets superstition with a playful and surrealist spirit. Mixing sumptuous tones of bronze, taupe and khaki with the magic of a golden beige, intense pink or burgundy palette, like a joyful prediction of beauty. I got to play around with some of the makeup, and as always, I am in love! CHANEL makeup never seems to disappoint! Their products are such high quality and totally worth the splurge! The LES 4 OMBRES MYSTÈRE quad is gorgeous! It has both muted and slightly shimmered shades that can be used in many different combinations. The black shade (top left) has a gorgeous undertone of golden sparkle, as does the golden ivory next to it. The colours below include two shades of Khaki and are lovely. As with all Chanel Eye shadows, they are super high quality, highly pigmented and there is no fall out, so you don’t waste a single speckle! The single eye shadows, Ombre Essentielle are available in…

A Look at the Chanel 2013 Summer Makeup Collection

A Look at the Chanel 2013 Summer Makeup Collection

As if you didn’t know it already, I’m a huge fan of Chanel Makeup! On the 21st June 2013, their latest, (limited edition) makeup collection L’ÉTÉ PAPILLON DE CHANEL will hit Chanel counters nationwide! The colourful collection has been inspired by butterfly wings. Creative Director of Chanel Makeup, Peter Phillips used the most vibrant hues to compose a poetic beauty look that combines energy, playfulness and the carefree feel of summer! Such beautiful colours that will brighten up any mood, but keeping it classy and fabulous, in true Chanel spirit! To me, Chanel Makeup is the crème de la crème of cosmetics! I’ve never once been disappointed by any of their makeup. Their eye shadow palettes, although a little pricey, are the best quality! They are all highly pigmented with true colour. But, besides all that, there is zero fall out – at all! Which means you use every last speckle of eye shadow on your eye lids, and not let it go to waste by falling out. Les 4 Ombres in “Seduction” has the prettiest shades, that will look good on just about any eye colour! I absolutely love the purpley-pink (top left). This palette is so versatile, and just by wetting your brush before hand,…

Spring Harmony – Chanel Makeup Collection 2012 Review

Spring Harmony – Chanel Makeup Collection 2012 Review

Trust Chanel to come up with yet another lustworthy makeup collection. I absolutely love thier colour collections! Their nail polishes are always one step ahead, offering colours that are unique and true to the brand’s fashion forward thinking. We may be a season behind when it comes to fashion, but thankfully we can still get our hands on the latest, 2012 Spring Makeup Collection from Chanel. It launches at at all Chanel counters on the 27th January 2012! I got to play with the full nail polish collection and a blusher that’s to die for! Let’s start with the nail polishes (R235 each). I love the names of the three nail colours in the new Chanel  Spring Harmony collection; April, May and June – named after three months of Spring in the northern hemisphere. April is a highly luminous garnet of wild berries. It may seem like an unlikely “spring” colour”, but it’s really a pretty shade that looks great for any season. I guess it would be the perfect transition from winter into spring; when you’re not feeling quite as fun and flirty but still want to melt away the winter blues. It’s a true Chanel quality shade, and…
