My Picks...

Here are my picks (left to right in the above image):



and (a late addition, since I had to go to another store to get it as it was sold out already!)


Chanel Rouge Coco Shine in 'Saga' (#79)
The Chanel Rouge Coco Shine sampler includes: Fiction, Saga and Monte-Carlo, and a Rouge Coco in Le Baiser.

If you're interested, please stay tuned for more photos, swatches and my thoughts on these new Chanel products. ^_^  (But!  If you follow me in Instagram - you will have seen several swatches already of the more colourful shades in the new range). ;-)

    1. Good choice Dustyn! :) I've just added it to my collection myself (and updated this post) - I managed to find it in another store since it was sold out! Definitely have to be quick with Limited Editions!!!! >_<

      Thanks for sharing & reading my blog post! :)

    1. Yes it is indeed 'Suspense' that she is wearing. :) It's a beautiful colour, so I'm not surprised you fell in love with it as I did. ;)

      Thanks for your question and visiting my blog. ^_^

    3. LOL. No problem. :) 'Suspense' is not a limited edition, so luckily you don't need to rush. ;)

  3. EEEE you got Le Baiser and Suspense! Same here! Now I kinda want Saga as well! I've been impressed by both Le Baiser and Suspense. I hope you'll love them too!

    1. Hi Sunny! Woot! *high five* :D These were amongst the ones I was most drawn to after swatching and after trying several of the shades at the counter, I totally fell in love with these 3 ini particular. ^_^ I do love them indeed. SOOO pretty! I liked a couple more - Interlude & Liaison, but they're permanent, so I can wait! *phew* LOL.

      Saga is a great everyday colour - definitely check it out if you don't want to miss it. The Shines are one of my fave lipstick ranges & it's fantastic to have them more pigmented now! ^_^
