Chanel Fall Colour Collection: Shimmery, Sexy, Superb!

By Laura Miller

New eye shadows, lip glosses and nail colors, oh my! The New Chanel Fall Colour Collection is brimming with sultry shimmer in a highly wearable collection with something for everyone.

For me, the showstopper in this bunch of “I want it” products has to be the Pink Lame eyeshadow. It weaves together gold, silver, and rose powders to form a majestic trio reminesant of the most luxurious lame. Best of all, it’s dazzling on everyone, any age, any skin tone.

When it comes to blush, the newest Joues Contraste colors are sure to light up your cheeks. Turbulent is a limited edition bright pink that works perfectly on medium to dark complexions. These powder formulas go on smooth, never giving you a dry or chalky looking complexion.

With Chanel’s fall lip colors, you know to expect lip service of only the highest quality. The Levres Scintillantes Glossimer lip glosses have always been my favorite. A lovely fall collection addition is the Magnifique Glossimer: a medium-toned pink with a hint of gold sparkle. It is beautiful when worn alone or over lipstick.

As a former manicurist, I love nail polish and the Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colors for fall are truly inspiring. Black Satin is a glossy black that is a stunning, sultry surprise that particularly intrigued me. All of the It Girls will soon be wearing this one, I promise.

Chanel cosmetics are available through the Chanel website at www.chanel.com or at Bloomingdale’s stores.
