Chanel

So those of you who use this brand, what are your fave products by them and why?

Anyone used their eye-kohl pencil? i believe they have two of those…which 1 is better, any idea?

My faves.

Make-up:

Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation
Eclat Lumiere Concealer
Poudre Universelle Compacte

I like these ^ cuz its light and gives you coverage without going all cakey on you.

Skincare:

Gel Purete Facewash
Purete Ideale Serum

^ These cuz they suit my skin type and keep my skin clear.

**Perfumes:
**
No.5
Chanel Eau Tendre

^ Unique and everlasting fragrances.

Since i have been using Chanel skincare for quite a few years now, i totaly love this brand and want to use it for other stuff too. I have used their Masque destressant purete but it was ok nothing great or maybe i just cant say much cuz i didnt use it regularly cuz my broke out during that time.

Now what i am basically wanting to buy from Chanel is an eye kohl pencil and maybe some lipglosses. I would love to try their bodycare but everything is just so damn expensive :(.

Any Recommendations :)?

Re: Chanel

Chanel makes great makeup products, haven't used the kohl pencil, but I think I will just to give it a try :) I use the foundation the pro lumiere in liquid for everyday wear and the compact for travelling only also I prefer their blushes, base, mascara and eye shadows over any other brands, even nail colours are so pigmented and last much longer, but as far as skincare goes I have never been fan of their creams, they are too perfumy, and I find em very heavy on the skin, perhaps someone else can share their reviews

Re: Chanel

thanks for sharing :biggthumb:.

how’s the mascara, which 1 do u use? :slight_smile:

Re: Chanel

I think it's called sublime, really like the brush, for a special night out/event if I ever apply two coats it gives lots of volume/curved look :)
I'll let you know about the kohl pencil too once I get it inshAllah :)

Re: Chanel

I don’t like Chanel’s foundations…none of them match me.

I love Mademoiselle though :wub:

Chanel

I tried there eyeshadows and they were bleugh. 0 pigment. So overpriced and looked like the stuff I used when I played dress up as a kid :-/ I've tried compact powders and illuminators etc too and didn't think much of them. Maybe there not meant for Asian skin :-/

Re: Chanel

I love Chanel Chance, very nice. Tried a few of their eyeliners, none of them stand out that much to me though. Am thinking of trying out their foundations, but can't imagine that it's better than some other ones out there like Bobbi Brown :/

Re: Chanel

Great :slight_smile: Looking forward to hear from you.

I have read this complain alot about chanel’s limited color range & the lack of shades for the asian skin esp with their new range of aqua vitalumiere which is said to be apt only for the european skin. But i use it and think it suits my skin tone just fine except that it turned a bit dark for me in the winters :frowning: but i guess thats my skin’s fault not the foundations :nono: Khair i used it mixed with lots of moisturiser and it works fine!

I am wanting to try other brands too like bobbi brown and ysl but a part of me doesnt want to bother :smack:.

Re: Chanel

I absolutely detest the aqua lumiere foundation, me no likes :(

Re: Chanel

kyun :confused:

Re: Chanel

The issue with their foundations on me is that they don't look like skin on me...they look ashy. They have this white cast or something else that contrasts starkly with my skin.

Re: Chanel

double post...

Re: Chanel

Chanel Chance is my favourite perfume!

Re: Chanel

I just can't bring myself to pay for chanel cosmetics :/

Re: Chanel

I am not a big fan of Chanel foundations - find them too heavy/sticky. But absolutely love love love Madamoiselle, one of my all time favorite fragrances.

Chanel

Tried to love the foubdation but breaks me out horribly. Sadness!!!
