Chanel fall looks ridiculously gorgeous (and I’ve heard some folks in NYC have already been able to purchase… Â Am I jealous? Â Yes I am). Â The focus is bold eyes, delicate lips… I think I’ll just have my paycheck direct-deposited to Chanel.
Which item to lust over first?
There’s Enigma, the new eyeshadow quad ($56). Shades are described as shimmering peach, chocolate grey, violet grey, and deep plum.
There are also two new eyeshadow singles ($28.50): Taupe Grise (chocolate grey), and Vert Khaki (khaki). I also really like the sound of the eye pencils: there’s a Crayon Kohl (intense eye pencil, $27) in Clair (beige, sounds like it will be lovely on the waterline). There’s also a Stylo Yeux Waterproof eyeliner ($28) in plummy Cassis.
There are THREE new Joues Contraste blushes coming out: Pink Explosion (shimmering pink), Rose Temptation (shimmering rosewood), and Plum Attraction (shimmering plum). Joues Contraste blushes are still $42 each, and most interestingly, the blushes are the only items that are designated as limited edition at this time.
There are also three new shades of Chanel’s new Rouge Coco lipstick ($30): Chintz (peach rose), Rose Dentelle (rose pink), Chalys (luminous coral). From the descriptions, I think I could love all three.
There are four new Glossimers ($27): Petite Peche (pale peach), Coral Love (coral shimmer), Rose Dilemma (soft pink), and Pink Teaser (vivid pink).
And finally, there’s a new nail polish: Paradoxal ($23). A few pictures of this one are already floating about the internet.







I can’t help but wonder how Vert Khaki is different/same as the standard Khaki in Chanel’s single line. Also, whether Rose Temptation is the same or different than the non-US Joues Contraste. Does anyone know?
A lot of these sound VERY tempting! Do you know when the official release date is?
I only know it’s in July, so SOON, I hope! (Plus, there are those folks in NYC who have already bought stuff…)
I’ve been bugging my SA about this collection for weeks! =P Was it already released in nyc? no fair!
i would give my 1st born for these! of course shes 13 so thats not saying much, but these colors are GORGEOUS!!!
Gorgeous. The Rose Dilemma glossimer sounds perfect for me. Chanel has put together a stunning collection for fall!
Simply beautiful for fall. I’m hoping the plum JC is really plum. Thanks, Karla.
Karla, any idea what she is wearing on her lips in the promo pic? Could you pretty please maybe ask your MA when you go to swatch?
Will do! (But I’d guess Rose Dentelle + Rose Dilemma)
Thanks Karla! Can hardly wait for your swatches!
Between Chanel Fall and Guerlain Fall, my wallet should be empty.
I’m looking forward to those 3 blushes, they look wonderful!
I wonder which of these (aside from the blushes) are limited edition?
This looks so good I could cry!
Saks has a preview of this collection -15% off. Today & Tomorrow & I think Sat.
Does anyone know who the model in the promo pic is?
Oh – the Cassis eyeliner sounds wonderful, hopefully it will be a true plum. I’m also looking forward to the lippies, they all sound like fabulous colors. Yep, just what I need (like a hole in the head) more makeup! Thanks Karla, always love your sneak peeks
