I should totally be vacuuming right now, but I couldn’t wait to snap a few pics of Chanel’s upcoming Holiday 2009 makeup collection (available in November).

What do you think of the colors? They’re kinda summery, yah?

    Ha Karen – I should be in the shower right now and cleaning up my messy room but here I am getting caught up on your blog! I want the tweed highlighter just to look at it – sad, huh? Are you going to try to see the new Chanel film? I love Audrey Tatou – I am hoping it’ll release in more theaters. It’s showing at the Clay just this weekend – SAD!

    Galapagos looks beautiful – that one will be mine! The shadows are pretty too – kind of summery, but I might have to try them too!

    OMG, thank you so much! I’ve been dying to know what some of these look like. I got the Trapeze nail polish from the holiday set and love it. You photos have confirmed that I need that powder and lipglosses and 2 of the lipsticks.

    Those *are* very summery… but still tres pretty! Not that I would expect anything less from Chanel! 😉 I especially like the second row, all the shimmery pinks.

    The Bird of Paradise quad is very pretty and it looks very Mediterranean too me. The Maldives Lipstick and Hirondelle lipgloss looks so lovely too.

    I really like the lipsticks in this collection. I’d love the quad too if I didn’t have a near-dupe for the blue and green…

    Hope the rest of your move goes smoothly 🙂

    Oooh I want colibri gloss and either maldives or galapagos lippies, lovely collection, I’ve seen pics of the nailpolish for this release (Trapeze) and want that too!

    Very pretty, but none of it is calling my name! I like the Tasmania lippie, and Grenada (didn’t you do a lip look with it?) looks like something I might pick up and hoard until June, but honestly I’m still more charmed by some of the remaining lacque lipsticks than these! *Wallet breathes a huge sigh of relief* Finally, something I don’t want! 😛

    I am loving the quad, def. going to check it out. The lipsticks and glosses are pretty but not really jumping out at me.

    That completely screams “summer” to me! I wonder if they were thinking more of a tropical holiday vacation when they created the collection?

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
