Chanel Les Naturels de Chanel Glossimers Photos and Review


Waterlily, Unity, Bel Air

Though “old” news now, Chanel’s Les Naturels de Chanel was a brief reprieve from the transition from summer to fall collections as it debuted in June. I thought I’d share the Glossimers ($27.00 each), just because who doesn’t like to peep out Chanel?

Glossimers

  • Waterlily is a soft, shimmering pink with a bit of beige to it. The shimmer is a mix of peach and gold, and it transfers well to lips. There’s not a lot of color, but there is plenty of sparkle going on!
  • Unity is a bronzy shimmering gloss with multicolored shimmer in a sheer, brownish-peach base. This one was the most pigmented of the three when I applied them to my lips.
  • Bel Air is a semi-sheer, creamy mellowed out pink. It goes on slickly, makes lips look luscious and plump. I did get decent color out of this shade, despite it seeming like it would end up being pretty sheer. Instead, my lips looked like a nice, neutral shade of pink with an ultra glossy finish.

Of the three, Waterlily was my favorite, just because I love me some shimmering goodness, and if it’s gold shimmer, I’m probably already half-way in love.

Wow! Lovely!
But at the first picture, isn’t the first one bel air in stead of waterlily?
Really love the glosses though 😉

hi Avatar

Ditto, Wilcoa! 27 dollars for a gloss is CRAZY. However, Karen at MBB compares the Glossimers to Sonia Kashuk’s Ultra Shine Sheer glosses. Try Whisper (nude-peach with gold shimmer) for a Unity dupe and a thin layer of Beauty (hot pink) for a Bel Air dupe (despite the shimmer). Add some Reflects Gold glitter to a thinner layer of Beauty for a Waterlily dupe. 🙂

Love Unity! Waterlily’s cute too, but very sheer. I have some fantastic Glossimers already like Astral, Sideral, Big bang, etc., I don’t think I need Waterlily. But Unity is lovely… 🙂

Fine, looks like Bel Air isn’t at all that shimmering, right? I’ve gotta be putting it on my wishlist :p
Thanks for another great post!

I just got Bel Air today! It is so gorgeous. I like that there isn’t any shimmer in it. It sucks that it’s a limited edition color. I would always purchase it when I ran out.
