Chanel Canaille (89) Joues Contraste Blush
Chanel Canaille (89) Joues Contraste Blush ($45.00 for 0.14 oz.) is a medium-dark, slightly muted, orange-brown with a soft, satiny shimmer. MAC Pleasure Model (LE, $25.00) is lighter. MAC Bad Girl Gone Good (LE, $21.00) is less shimmery. MAC Sweet As Cocoa (P, $21.00) is a bit darker. MAC Stylish Me (LE, $21.00) is less orange, browner. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
The texture was incredibly soft, finely-milled, and silky without being powdery or dry. It had rich, true-to-pan color payoff that could be applied at full color coverage or built up in layers if you preferred a lesser intensity. The blush applied evenly, smoothly, and it was easy to blend out the color so that it looked natural and effortless on the skin. With the satin finish, it looked glowing and luminous on the skin without emphasizing pores. Canaille lasted for a full eight hours before I noticed slight fading along the top of the cheeks.

Nice shade, perfect for summer 🙂
Agreed!
I absolutely love this color…Its looking so fab on you..what brush did you use to apply?
Tom Ford Cheek Brush!
Hm, I can’t figure out if it’d be too dark for me or not.
I think it’s buildable, so you could definitely work it!
I don’t know how fair you are, but I’m a clair/beige tone, I normally wear Chanel foundations in 20. I passed on this at first thinking it would be too dark, but this week I had to wait till my makeup gal was free, and found myself trying it out. Yep, bought it, loved it. Definitely buildable. What I love most is that for me, it’s like an orangy glow bronzer minus the bronze.
Too orangey for me, but I can really picture this looking absolutely stunning on dark skin tones.
Yes, definitely!
This is a gorgeous color on you Christine!
Thank you!
How pretty, both in the compact and on your cheeks! It definitely translates to a much lighter, peachier, less brown color that I expected
It’s very blendable + buildable!
Christine, have you reviewed/do you plan to review the Guerlain Les Voilettes Loose Powder that you are using here?
I haven’t! I’m not sure yet!
Great post, such a gorgeous colour. I need a new blush in my life.
Enjoy!
Pleasure Model and BGGG are my favorite blushes so I think I would love this too, but that price tag!
BTW, is Guerlain Gems being repromoted? Please say yes!
It’s not! I only had it on to compare against MAC Lip Blossom!
I just love orange blushes! This looks so pretty!!
Yayy!! 🙂
Thats a pretty shade! Shades like this look good on my tan skintone! 🙂
It would be amazing on you!
This looks stunning on you! I think this would be the perfect warm bronzey blush for me for summer 🙂
I think it would be lovely for ya!
This looked so scary in the pan! looks lovely on you!
Thank you!
Too orange and brown for my taste.
Aww, that is too bad!
You wear it nicely yet I must say I’m not as impressed with color as much as others you’ve recently worn and reviewed. It just doesn’t impress me much as it looks easily duped.
I think it is more readily duped!
At the very least, I’m certain we can be assured that Chanel will never go down the Mac spiral! 😀
Pretty, but way too warm for me!
Aww! I didn’t think this one would appeal to you!
I bought this blush a week after its release at Dillards. This is absolutely beautiful against darker skintones. I’m a nc45 and it looks beautiful. I love it so much I bought another one since its L/E. Super pigmented its worth every penny.
Happy to hear that you’re loving it on your skin tone!
Ooh, this is almost like an apricot bronzer! It’s very pretty on you 🙂
Thanks a lot, Sylirael! 😀
Beautiful! It’s like a slightly lighter, peachier version of Brume D’Or <3
Ooh, good to know!
My kind of shade! 😀
YAY! 😀
Beautiful! I’m in love with this color xx
Happy to hear it, Coco! Think you’ll be picking it up?
Hi Christine,
how does this one compare to MAC Modern Mandarine and NARS Gilda? Many thanks ^_^
Both of those are more orange than brown!
Christine, I love this color so much that I have every single dupe you referenced to and I wear them all for different looks. I would love to have this as well. I’m searching for a creme blush version of this color preferably by Chanel or Guerlain for a future birthday haul.
I don’t know that Guerlain has more than two cream blushes right now? And I think those are LE… Chanel Destiny or maybe the new Cheeky, but they don’t have shimmer, so they’re not going to be quite like this.
Thanks for the info Christine.
You’re such an enabler. I bought Reflex instead of this and i LOVE it. Now that I see this am like, “NEEEEED! *drool*
Sorry 😉
Hi Christine! How does this color compare to Burberry Tangerine?
Tangerine is not quite as warm-toned, browner, not as shimmery!
Shall I pick this up ? Or skip ?
its looking gorgeousss on u dear 🙂
I think it would be nice on you, if you don’t have something similar already!
