Those nail polishes are all lovely. I'm especially loving the brown shades. They look sophisticated and perfect for the fall/winter!

Great blog! :)

Thanks so much for comparing the Trace to Le Bronze--that was really helpful.I finally got a chance to try this out. I'm still on the borderline on trace. It's pretty but a bit too shimmery.

Lina, you're right that the eye colors are the best in this collection. Nice to see some warmer stuff after all the cool collections.

Just want to say I LOVE YOUR BLOG, I visit every day, and love the color combinations you post, I have gotten tons of inspiration! You have exquisite taste, and I look forward to your new posts, keep them coming, you're doing an AWESOME job!

Thank you for the amazing post!

#505 Particuliere looks like Metro Chic by Opi for Sephora, too. At least on the photo
And #141 Maline Glossimer reminds me of my beloved Mica.
I like #80 Delicieuse lipstick the best. I'll be sure to check it out myself!

I totally agree with what's said before me, "Keep doing what you do and don't mind the nonsense comment. There're always biotches and mean girls."

i had some very uncalled for comments every now and then too but i just delete them or laugh at them with all my readers (who might appreciate with those ridiculous stuff.) :P

i love your blog and many others do.

2009-12-18T12:49:21.507-08:00

Thank you Lina! Love your blog and I get excited everytime you have new post too. You take gorgeous pictures of products. Keep doing what you do and don't mind the nonsense comment. There're always biotches and mean girls. Hope you did well on final and can't wait on pictures of Mystic Eyes, Kaska Beige, and Demure side by side.

2009-12-18T09:40:33.302-08:00

Thank you so much for the nail comparisons between You Don't know Jacques and Over the Taupe with Particuliere. I might pass on that and go directly to the glosses.

2009-12-18T09:40:02.305-08:00

Katia - I'm not sure if the singles are LE or not, I am always hesitant to ask the SAs b/c I know 90% of the time they will say "yes" just to close the sale or try and make me buy a backup.

Anonymous - I will do a comparison to Mystic Eyes for you soon. I think it's different enough to have both. Mystic Eyes has a more cool-toned finish, Kaska Beige looks warmer on me.

Joey, Ariana, Marce, Evelynn, Milkyway, Catherine, Julia, Resham, LipstickChic, R, Grace, Jess, Jojoba, Blinkydaisy - thank you for your kind comments and support :)

Lakshmi - I will send you an email later today, I still have to check on Nars Brousse v BB Java for you!

Sophia - Demure is more neutral, Kaska Beige is a bit more dramatic, I'll do a Chanel quads post for you too very soon.

Evelyn - I'm not sure if Imprevu is LE.

Jojoba - yes, I think the new blush might be too dark for you.

Sorry if I missed anyone!

2009-12-18T09:26:58.406-08:00

I might skip this collection. Everything looks lovely, but the single shadows look boring, and the blush too shimmery. I like the eye shadow quad, but no matter how pretty, many neutrals look the same on me Will have to see in person.

I love Zoya Jessika! It's going to be my Christmas...

2009-12-18T07:32:33.692-08:00

I love Zoya Jessika! It's going to be my Christmas Day shade :) Love ya blog!

2009-12-18T07:23:05.848-08:00

If I cared about my wallet, I would ban myself from your blog ;)

I need the quad, Impertinente lipstick, and Particuliere. I think the blush is going to be too dark for me.

I totally agree that Chanel has gotten back on track after some not-so-great collections. I loved the Venise collection this autumn, beautiful stuff.

Your comparison pictures are so helpful.

i love the way you positioned the items. very classic and tasteful. your knowlege of makeup is top of the world. i just love coming to your blog to look at all the beautiful stuff and learn about makeup the way i will never know. thank you!

spring joues contrast is too dark for me. but thank God for that or else it's one more in my collection. ha

2009-12-18T00:23:24.130-08:00

Love the swatch comparisons, now I feel a need to buy Chanel Particuliere, I liked You Don't Know Jacques but I felt that it was too dark for me. The quad and lipsticks look absolutely gorgeous too. Thanks for the eye candy and the swatches!

2009-12-18T00:10:41.038-08:00

Lina, I'm not sure what I missed, but never doubt for a second that your pics are simply TDF. The lighting is perfect, shows the products/colors incredibly accurately, and dammit, they make me want every stupid thing LOL. And I can't HAVE every stupid thing ;-)!

I had one of the same hauls tonight, but I didn't get to see the new golden Glossimer you picked up (it was shoplifted from the display *rolls eyes*). Is it similar at all to Beige Guitare, if you have that one?

Keep on keepin' on, Lina ... I'm always so excited when I find a new post of yours! :-)

2009-12-17T23:58:55.830-08:00

Woooooow, everything looks so gorgeous! I love the look of Tendresse on your nails especially! I have been looking for the perfect pink like that one!

2009-12-17T22:50:09.329-08:00

thanks again.

Thank you so much for sharing your pictures! I always enjoy reading your posts, and I love how cute your nails look on NP swatches :)

#18 Kaska Beige quad look gorgeous! I have been thinking about buying Demure (#85?) quad, but now I am not sure.. May I ask which one you like better? How would you create the whole look with #18 Kaska Beige?

2009-12-17T22:44:07.949-08:00

I love your blog, Lina! (Especially since you share my affinity for all things Chanel. I am positively drooling over Particuliere!)

Don't change a thing!

The quad is amazing....
I also liked the OPI nail polish in "over the taupe" shade. so very prettyyy....

2009-12-17T20:48:10.607-08:00

Wow, this collection is gonna hurt my wallet! Everything looks fab! And I can't believe someone said your blog is "worthless without swatches." That is so rude! I personally like seeing swatches, but I also know how hard it is to take accurate pictures of them, plus, swatches look different on everyone, so it's very YMMV. For the record Lina, you do beautiful swatches. And you take beautiful photos. I read your blog everyday, it has become my favorite! Keep up the good work, and don't let the haters get you down. You rock!

2009-12-17T20:20:40.576-08:00

=/ That was quite rude. Swatches are always welcome but it really is a difficult chore, and hey, everyone blogs about what they want. As you say, there are heaps of blogs out there that the person could visit, and maybe criticize aswell.
Anyway...I die! Everything looks stunning! I need some Chanel in my life. I don't care how, LOL
Thankyou for these beautiful pictures! XO

Lina, first, thank you for another amazing report, and while you are coping with final exams, no less.
Your blog is superb because you have an encylopedic makeup collection and a very good and discerning eye. From your early, thorough posts on tools and brushes; to your fascinating color studies with numerous examples, clearly photographed; to your recent efforts to highlight smaller, independent lines; your blog is an original, of very high quality. Kudos, and let the critics go elsewhere.
