Chanel London Madness Collection for Summer 2009

Chanel London Madness Collection for Summer 2009

May brings a brand new reason to step in to Selfridges for the opening of the new Chanel Makeup Counter. To celebrate the occasion, Peter Philips, the Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, has designed 3 limited edition must-have products – The London Madness Collection – which will be exclusively available in the Oxford Street store and then launching nationwide at the end of June. This collection was inspired by Peter’s love of London and has been expressed in the creation of the exclusive Union Jack Palette.

Collection Includes:

  • London Madness “Pearly Banner” Highlighter with an ivory, gold and silver union jack on the surface
  • Rouge Allure in ‘Enthusiast’ Bright, young, fresh red shade
  • Le Vernis in ‘Enthusiast’ Complimentary red nail colour

Available: May 2009 at Oxford Street store, late June elsewhere in the UK — I do not know if this will be launched outside of the UK area at this time!

Normally yes! According to my little sources, this collection will be released in May in the UK and will be available worldwide in July.

Christine, i just read from a magazine (I’m in Hong Kong), and they’re going to release it on 1st June. I think it’s pretty but it’s ridiculously over priced, as usual LOL so I’d most probably not splurge on it.

As far as I know this highlighter will be available at studios only for all international locations. I’ve seen this image for about a month now, and every time I went to a Chanel counter the SA’s either didn’t know about this highlighter at all or told me to go to the makeup studio.

If it doesn’t come out in the US, I will have to call a few friends and have them buy it for me!
