CHANEL LES SAUTOIRS DE COCO COLLECTION - NOW AVAILABLE AT NORDSTROM!

I absolutely adore the Les Sautoirs de Coco collection from Chanel! Typically Chanel will release a few select pieces from their Asia exclusive spring collection, such as this, for purchase online only. Then during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale the items will be available in-stores. However I just checked the Nordstrom website and the highlight powder is available online. Hopefully we will see this collection in store at Nordstrom beauty counters real soon but if you can't wait and you are a "must see in person before you buy" then two Chanel Boutiques (Chicago and New York) did receive the entire collection. So you might want to plan a quick trip there if you are in the area.

P.S. The gorgeous highlight powder (which is calling my name) is "FINALLY" back in stock and available for purchase.

Availability: Nordstrom, Chanel

"Inspired by Gabrielle ‘Coco’ Chanel’s love of pearls, a new makeup collection glimmers with iridescent and luminous shades of white, pink and soft grey, while classic black elements bring an unexpected contrast to the soft colour range."

This exclusive palette lights up the complexion with delicate pink and luminous white shades. An embossed design resembles stands of pearls.

MY PARISIAN SHIMMER CUBE LANCOME SPRING 2016 COLOR COLLECTION - NOW AVAILABLE

Spring 2016 Color Collection – From Lancome With Love

This spring, the collection is inspired by Playfulness. More than an ephemeral attitude, it is a state of mind, the art of twisting the use of an object to create something completely new and surprising!

Lancôme 'My Parisian' Shimmer Cube - $59.00 USD

This smart yet glamorous palette inspired by a Rubik's Cube contains nine shimmering pastels in removable cubes that can be used individually or blended together with a brush to highlight and illuminate your facial features for an effortlessly French-chic look. Each shade can be used as an eyeshadow, blush or highlighter.

How to use:

• For face makeup, use a flat brush and take the formula from each horizontal line to correct, blush and highlight.
• When using as an eyeshadow, take each cube individually and apply the formula directly with your fingers on your eyelids for a beautiful shimmery finish.
• When using on your lips, tap a cube directly on the heart of your lips for a trendy, velvety, shimmering finish.

LE MAGNOLIA CHANTECAILLE EYE AND CHEEK PALETTE - NOW AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER (LIMITED EDITION)

Keep the wild, wild. Chantecaille represents its commitment to the FairWild Standard (which helps support efforts to ensure plants are managed, harvested and traded in a way that maintains populations in the wild and benefits rural producers) and has embossed each limited-edition eye and cheek shade in this palette with a magnolia—a popular, wild-collected plant used in traditional Chinese medicine and in many of Chantecaille's formulas.

Chantecaille Limited Edition Le Magnolia Eye and Cheek Palette - $83.00 USD

A portion of the proceeds from this palette will be donated to TRAFFIC, which aims to ensure that trade in wild plants and animals is not a threat to the conservation of nature.

Shades include:

Leaf (a unique, pale, pearly green that instantly brightens the eye area)
Magnolia (a delicate and slightly iridescent white)
Bark (a semi-matte, rich neutral brown to define and contour)
Wild (a fun, playful coral that adds a natural flush to the cheeks)

PLEASE NOTE:

Almost every year across many makeup brands we typically see price increases with the launch of Spring collections. This year Chanel has implemented their price increase on a few of the products listed below.
