Chanel Beauty has launched their limited edition Denim Makeup Collection and if you have your eye on something I recommend getting to your local stores or counters as soon as possible as things are selling out quickly. Some pieces can currently still be found at Chanel.com and Nordstrom.
I was lucky enough to receive a press kit from Chanel Beauty on most of these pieces. I looked up a few lipsticks so I can test them all for you.
Chanel hand cream
I think the La Crème Main + Denim Pouch ($85, Chanel and Nordstrom) is beyond adorable! I love the denim + pink colors, it’s so fun, I hope Chanel makes more fun accessories like this!
Coco Denim Illuminating Powder Highlighter
The Coco Denim Illuminating Powder Highlighter ($82, Chanel and Nordstrom) is the highlight of the collection for me. It’s a pearlescent blue-pink shimmer with a subtle duochrome shift. I would never think of wearing blue on the cheeks, but it has a really nice interesting sheen if you apply it with a light hand. I think this is really beautiful on the eyes.
Lesson 4 Ombres eyeshadow palettes
The two Denim Les 4 Ombres Eyeshadow Palettes ($90 each) seem to be the items most of you have been most excited about. I’ll be completely honest with you: I’m not a blue eyeshadow wearer, I don’t think I can pull it off, but the lighter one seems wearable for me! These are inspired by different denim washes.
Denim Dream (Chanel and Nordstrom) has an iridescent white gold sheen, a satiny pink, a silvery baby blue and a darker navy blue with silver flecks. Coco Jean has a denim blue with silver glitter, a medium silver shimmer, a peach shimmer and a satiny brown. I think they are super cute and they are perfect for the denim lover or blue eyeshadow lover.
Noir Allure mascara
The Noir Allure Mascara ($43) in Indigo was a pleasant surprise for me! I think the mascara in this size is a hit, but this one was a big hit for me. Extends and thickens the lashes in a beautiful way. The indigo is dark blue but gives a nice twist to the lashes.
Rouge Coco Flash
I’m the biggest fan of the Chanel Rouge Coco Flash ($53 at Chanel and Nordstrom) and they have four new shades. I feel like I can only really pull off one (beige wash). The others are beautiful, I just don’t think they suit my skin tone.
- Baby Blue is a pearly blue gloss
- Washed Beige is a soft brown beige caramel
- Faded Orange is a burnt orange peach
- Raw Brown is a cool, brown shade
Le Vernis Nail Polish in Legend
Chanel launched a new color Le Vernis in Legende ($34). It is metallic blue, but smooth. I can get full coverage with just one coat, but two gives the nails a more intense look.
Online Chanel suggested a layering combination to give a more subdued denim look by adding one layer of Ballerina over it. I think it’s a nice twist.
That wraps up my Chanel Denim Makeup Collection collection! I hope you can find the pieces you are looking for!
