Les Impressions de Chanel for Spring 2010: What Would You Get?

December 17th, 2009 by Karen 44 Comments

chanel spring 2010 makeup collection

Oy vey! Who’s ready to pounce with me on the spring 2010 makeup releases? I’m already stalking them, like a jungle cat hunting for makeup prey, mmrrow

OOH! Like Les Impressions de Chanel for spring 2010. We weren’t supposed to see it in stores until January, but the word on the street’s that it’s already on counters at Saks Fifth Ave.

chanel-spring-2010-mash-up-1

The 19-piece collection leans toward neutrals, which means totes up my alley, with shades of pink, beige, warm brown and khaki for eyes, face, cheeks, lips and nails.

Could we be looking at Les Naturals de Chanel part deux (incidentally, one of my fave Chanel releases to date)?

I hope so! 🙂

And I’m itching to get my paws on that new Kaska Beige Quad. It looks like it might complement the Beiges de Chanel Quad from holiday 2008 quite well.

Ready to play another installment of What Would You Get?

    My top choices are the Particuliere nail polish and the eyeshadow quad as well. The colors in the quad are so pretty! For some reason, I’ve been into plum colors lately and that purple looks gorgeous. How do you like Chanel palettes in general? I’m brainstorming what to get my mom for Christmas, and I’m considering a bit of Chanel.

      Hey Shontay,

      That highlighting powder looks fun!

      Have you worn their pressed powders before? I’m using the Poudre Universelle and I really like it.

        No, I’ve never worn their pressed powders or any pressed powder for that matter.

        I just got back from bloomingdales and I bought the powder!!! I am flipping out because it is amazing! It’s lay down and die beautiful. LOL

    I think I would get:

    1. the Blush: you don’t really see too many copper shades for a cheek color unless its a bronzer
    2. Particuliere Nail Polish: gorgeous grey color!
    3. Kaska Beige Quad: I’m loving the neutral colors.
    4. Delicieuse lipstick
    5. Incognito lipstick
    6. Fultile glossimer

    I’m loving the natural feel of this collection. Nothing too crazy and unwearable but really still stands out.

    Oh god, I saw the top picture and knew I was a goner!

    How could anyone not accept this mission?!

    I want practically everything! I love the highlighting powder – so cute! And hmm… let’s see… only 5 left… I’m liking the idea of grey nails – at least in an abstract way, so that’s a keeper… And then… the quad, the crayon in Khaki, Rose Agate lip color, and Delicieuse lip.

    Thats a beautiful collection …. and this is my list:

    1 – Empreinte de Chanel –Its a beautiful product and anything that says ‘radiant” has got my vote.

    2 – Imprevu – Pretty blush, which I think will go well with the Empreinte de Chanel.

    3 – Kaska Beige – I think its a must have for eyeshadow addicts (like me!!!).

    4 – Khaki Dome – Will for sure go well in combination with Kaska Beige, plus its got glitter – im always a go for glitter!!!

    5 – Insouciante – I love the name of this product. Its so devil-may-care; and its an awesome color that I think goes well with my skin tone.

    6 – Maline – Its GOLD – `nuff said. Plus, its another pretty name: if I ever had a daughter, I would name her Maline.

    It may be weird, but the name of the product would be a determining factor for me in deciding to buy a beauty product or not. 😀

    I would love the highlighting powder, the quad, and to try out the khaki eye liner! That quad is calling out to me… I don’t think I can resist the temptation……. xD So yes, those are the only three I want… for now 😉

    By the way, is the first sign of becoming a crazy cat lady syndrome spending 4 hours at home just randomly taking pictures of my two kitties (sleeping, eating, sleeping some more, playing)?

    After our move, hubby and I thought to adopt two orange kitties and I can’t get enough of them! 🙂

    I’m not digging any of this. I like neutrals, but the eye quad is too muddy for my olive skin tone, and I’m waiting for Nars, Givenchy, and Dior instead. The real test of a good e/s for me is when I wear it without blush. Without some color on my face, the shadows would do nothing for me, so it’s a no-buy.

    Think I have to have the quad – Had my makeup done by a Chanel makeup artist & he used all of these things – The highlighter is nice but check out the holiday one before its gone – The holiday one will be a highlight & bronzer when the top is used up & it can be used to highlite & contour vs. this one will only highlight. Love everything as usual.

    I think I’m more drawn to the top 3, than the bottom 3 though.

    I love the eye quad, the eye pencil, the blush, the rouge allure lipsticks in the apricot shade and maybe the mauve one–in any event, the best ones for a fair-skinned, blue-eyed blondie, which I am–and the darker nail polish and the nude one, plus the new base and top coats. I have the last 2 highlighters so I don’t need another one but what the heck i will see it and go nuts for it and get it. I think the Chanel makeup is simply the best. I put it on very early in the day and it stays through work and workout at the gym.

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).
