We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

Quite beautiful, as expected. I do have MAC Shaft Of Gold, which looks close enough to this to where I don’t feel the need to get it. But; that other shade Rose Or is something that I hope to snag!

Thank you, dyslexia for the embarrassment! 😳

I swatched this in Nordstrom and it’s really pretty on my complexion. I just hesitate to spend that much on a highlighter. So pretty but Yikes $100

Does anyone know if Chanel makeup/perfumes is ever discounted by any retailers?

Light Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin.

I can’t think of any instance of it being at a regular retailer 🙁 Chanel seems to be excluded from most promos!

this one looks really nice… I used up my healthy beiges luminzer .. so maybe time for a new one!

Very Light, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Combination skin.

I can’t recall how Chanel highlighters usually look, or illuminating powder to call it what they do. Both of the ones in this edition are on a richer, warmer shade unless my memory is very off. I think they will look lovely on rich, deeper skin tones, can that be right? If so I think it’s a good thing as I always have a feeling Chanel historically haven’t been a very inclusive brand.
Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong and have mixed higher end brands with each other here. If I have I blame my least favourite season, fall! That’s my excuse for every and anything! 😉
