New: CHANEL Ready To Wear S/S 2021 Backstage Beauty
The recent CHANEL Ready-to-Wear Spring/Summer 2021 runway show was once again set in Paris’ soaring Grand Palais, but this time the theme bore a laid-back LA aesthetic, complete with the brand name spelled out in giant letters evoking the iconic Hollywood sign. All that glamour aside, what really stood out for me was the comeback of the smokey eye … but trust CHANEL to soften up this look to make it so absolutely wearable.
New! CHANEL Joues Contraste 40th Anniversary Edition
In 1980, the CHANEL Makeup Creation Studio developed Joues Contraste blush, and since then has gone on to create more than 140 shades; 40 years later, this formula is still considered one of the best in the biz. For 2020, the brand has launched 3 of their most iconic hues in limited edition packaging to celebrate this milestone … and much like the blushes themselves, it’s absolutely irresistible.
New! CHANEL Fall-Winter 2020 Collection, Candeur et Expérience Act II
Back in 2016 and for her debut launch, Lucia Pica — Global Creative Makeup & Colour Director for CHANEL — created a collection around red, her favourite shade. For Fall/Winter 2020, she revisits this iconic hue with the Candeur et Expérience Acte II Collection … but with a pink twist that explores variations and tones, and still keeping it all within the brand’s recognizable signature. For the record, I’m LOVING every.single.piece.
CHANEL · Les Beiges 2020 Summer of Glow
Without a doubt, CHANEL’s Les Beiges is the collection I wait for all year round and have done so since its inception. The fact that it seems to launch around my birthday just makes it sweeter (coincidence?!). Something about the sleek beige packaging coupled with the whole summery vibe just speaks to me, and the 2020 iteration is no exception to that.
CHANEL · Le Volume Stretch Mascara & Le Liner Rouge Noir
Out of all the makeup products in the world, the one that I’d say can make you look instantly “done” & wide awake, has got to be mascara. And while not all mascaras are created equal, CHANEL’s Le Volume has been my go-to since its launch years ago. Recently added to the range is the new Le Volume Stretch* … it’s got quite a lot to live up to, so I put it to the test. The iconic Rouge Noir* family also has a new addition in the form of liquid liner, and even though I tend to reach for pencils, you can bet that I’ll be giving this one a whirl.
*Graciously gifted by CHANEL for my unbiased consideration
