 hey guys what is up welcome to my channel for today's video i'm going to be playing with some items that i picked up from the chanel spring and summer collections i'm a chanel lube i know a few of the items that i picked up are from different collections or different launches not a chanel expert here i'm honestly not sure what came from what launch so i'm just gonna link everything that i got down below but all these are brand new items to chanel you don't know i'm in a journey to slowly but surely really familiarize myself with the chanel makeup line i have a hard time picking up what launches are what what's limited edition what's not but i just knew there was a bunch of new stuff and i wanted to play with them because they looked gorgeous so i have the metatranny and quad i have the pish rosé blush and i have a couple lip colors to play with so if you want to see all that then just keep watching now of all the new launches there was a lot that i did not pick up chanel's expensive so i really just wanted to pick up the pieces that i felt that i would wear there were a number of formulas that i wasn't a big fan of i did not pick up the obama central that launched in this collection because quite honestly i'm just not a fan of that formula i have a few of them in my collection i'm disappointed by them every time so i didn't waste my money with that i didn't pick up any of the nail polishes because i i don't take care of my nails it's a big flaw of mine but i just don't and there was also a liquid eyeshadow in the collection that i didn't pick up because i have a couple and the lighter shades are good the darker shades that i have i'm not a big fan of and i don't really reach for them that often so i thought i could pass on the liquid eyeshadow as well but i got at least one shade in the rest of the formulations available i also will have a video eventually with the comment blushes um the star blushes they're absolutely stunning i did have to preorder them so they're not on their way to me yet but when i get them i would definitely play with them because they look stunning because i am obsessed with the way that they look and i love chanel blushes but let's get into what i did pick up i'm gonna zoom us in a little bit closer oh by the way everything i ordered is from the chanel website i love ordering from the chanel website it is such an experience opening up the box i feel like i'm paying for this box here and i'm okay with that love it love ordering from the chanel website i would choose to do it over nordstrom any day because of the experience of opening it up straight from chanel first things first let's get into the eyeshadow quad that i picked up now this is my first ever eyeshadow quad from chanel it's the Mediterranean quad i had a few of you tell me that this is one of the best quads that chanel has come out within a while and i have heard not so good things about chanel quads again i'm not really that experienced with them so i thought this would be a beautiful first one to try i really was into the vibes of it i have swatched it i'm really excited to put it on my eyes here's the box that it comes in you can see that it does say it is limited edition then here is the back the eyeshadow quad is made in Italy and it has an 18 month shelf life this is 65 dollars on the chanel website and it is still currently available if you are interested it's going to come in the chanel sleeve and here is the back of the product if you need to look at it and oh my goodness you guys this is absolutely stunning and this is one of the rare cases where i feel like just with this formulation you might actually get used out of the sponge tip applicators i feel like they just would pick up the products good so let me turn the lights down a little bit for you so that way there's less reflection because this is very very reflective now i'm going to refer you to alice and chase's channel she is a chanel expert she also speaks french so she can pronounce everything that i can't she does a great job and i've learned a lot about chanel from her and i did watch her video before this i normally don't watch videos before i review products but i really don't know anything about chanel and she does a great job explaining it she explained the collection itself the inspiration why the colors were the way that they are why the embossings are the way that they are really great resource that i'm going to link for you guys but here's what they look like as you can see it doesn't seem that there's much depth in here and all of these kind of stay within the same depth but let's see okay let me swatch them for you feel a lot more pigmented than they look i've been dealing with dior shadows lately because they've launched so many honestly these are a little bit refreshing i love the way that these feel and look how reflective they are i didn't know chanel had it in them to create such a pretty reflective palette and you can see this shade is going to add depth here's what the shades look like i'm very optimistic about how this quad is going to look on the eyes because it's reminding me a lot of the charlotte tulberry pearl quad that just came out that i really love actually let me go grab that real quick it reminds me a lot of the charlotte tulberry celestial pearl quad that came out in 2021 that was one of my all-time favorite palettes the color stories aren't the same the charlotte tulberry is obviously more pinky but similar vibes similar looking finishes so let's see i'm actually going to do this i first to get my bearings and then we'll do this side together okay guys i need you to know that i am in fact a fan of this quad i'm happy i picked it up but this is certainly not going to be everybody's cup of tea it's that formula similar to that of the charlotte tulberry that i was talking about in that it's not about the depth it's about the ethereal soft glow that you're going to get on the eyelid you don't always need depth there's a difference though like some of the dior palettes that i recently reviewed they didn't have depth but i felt it was due to not very good color choice decisions with this you can tell that not only is it intentional but it is also well done let me show you so i'm going to start off i'm just going to use my finger this shade right here is almost like a lid top where you can see that there's lots of glitter and reflect i have the milk makeup eye primer by the way on my eye right now so i'm just going to use my finger and pat this in the inner corner and you can see the effect that it gives it's a sophisticated glitter i would say and glitter is a strong word but you can see the amount of reflects in there it's absolutely stunning pop this all over the lid with a little bit of mascara and you have the prettiest glowy eye awakening look i love that then i'm going into the shade next to it which is slightly deeper very similar a little bit more gold and i just want to show you the difference so i don't think you necessarily needed both of these in the palette but you can see this is almost like the same shade as this slightly more gold and deep and without the glitter so there is a place for this i really do think if you don't want the glimmer which not everybody is feeling i think you will like this and then the next shade that we have is kind of this pewter gold you can see it leans a little bit more cool now this is a quad where i feel like you're not going to use all of the shades at once on your eye you're going to pick the direction that you want to go and do a simple wash all over the lid and it's going to be gorgeous you have something a little bit more glittery you have a lighter gold and then you have more of like a cool tone shade depending on the cheek products that you are using so when it comes to this quad i wouldn't necessarily recommend using all four because i mean they don't look all the same but you can tell the formula is so well done now let me show you this i'm going to use a morphe m562 funny i'm using such a cheap brush but this shade makes the palette worth it and shows what good quality it is so i just picked up a little bit and you can see this transforms the look it adds the depth that you need in case you do need it just going to run this along the lower lash line so this right here is exactly what the quad needed i'm so happy that they added this and it blends out really easily and you can blend it out to be nice and soft like i did or you can pack it like i just did on this eye and leave it for the depth but i actually am not going for depth here just running it along kind of blending it out to give that soft ethereal glow now you guys know i love the glimmer so i am going to just put that all over i think that this quad is very fitting for the chanel clientele however definitely not going to be for everybody if you're looking at this and you're unimpressed it's a waste to you you don't like washes of color or an all-over glowy ethereal effect this is not going to be for you but i for one am very happy about it i'm trying to articulate why it's okay for this quad to be like this and why the dior quints i just came for when they also gave kind of a lighter look to the eye kind of but there's just something about this where it feels more intentional and there's just something about this quad where even though it is lighter you don't get too much depth it just feels more intentional and the formulations themselves are so well done no i really like this i'm very happy with this as my first chanel quad i've already gotten rid of the embossments which i'm really sad about but if you like the celestial pearl from charlie tilbury i really think you will like this as well they're definitely in the same wheelhouse so i'm going to put on some liner and lashes and we're going to move on to the next few products with liner and lashes i am fizzling this eye look it's so pretty and soft obviously you know if you are shopping at chanel you're not looking for the same type of makeup as say pat macrath or natasha tenona where they are packed with pigment and impact this is a different vibe it's very sophisticated i love both spectrums of makeup beautiful okay let's move on to the blush lumiere this honestly was what initially started this order that i have for you today i had to get these blushes i love chanel blushes i've tried enough to know that um so anyways this is what the packaging is going to look like again you can see that it is the limited edition on the box this product itself is made in france and it has an 18 month shelf life now there are two shades that came out with this launch i got pesh rosé i passed on that this deeper terracotta one for two reasons one it just did not look like it would be flattering for me though if you have a medium to deep skin tone i feel like this could be really really beautiful and two these blushes are 70 dollars 70 and i bought both of this comet ones so i was like let me just get let me just get the one that i think will look good and that will i will actually use i also forgot to mention while i was doing my eyes i was watching erin nicolle's review on this collection and i'm also going to link her video down below wealth of knowledge when it comes to chanel she used to work at a counter as well as she has all the swatches of every item in this collection and again another go-to for chanel education for me okay let's let's actually get into the product though so here is the little protector sleeve it comes in and then again just a simple chanel packaging very clean very streamlined still wish it wasn't plastic though but that's the back and here we go so you do get this little dinky brush that i don't use and look at this i've swatched it but that is about it how pretty is that you can see it has a golden glow to it which it's supposed to be that way it's an illuminating blush powder so let's swatch it actually let me get a little closer so that's what it looks like and you can even see on my hand it's this peach with a very subtle golden shift to it here is what it looks like swatch i like a peachy blush this almost needs a touch orange which i'm not the biggest fan of but i think i'll like this one so i'm going to use a refer number four to apply this this is completely clean so we can see the true color here i'm going to tap in a couple of times and let's see you know so you can go heavy-handed in this blush which is nice because i'm a heavy-handed individual oh it's very soft very pretty i do like this i am building it up to get a lot of color i like a brighter blush but i much prefer that it is more sheer but has the option to be built up i think that makes it more versatile and easy to use and as i turn i can definitely see that glowy effect really pretty let's put it on the other cheek so if you like a subtle blush you will love this formula because it is so easy to use but if you like more of a bright blush you can absolutely build this up as well i love this i've been liking warmer blushes lately i used to not like warm blushes on me this is super pretty the soft illumination is also very pretty now it's not the most flattering as no illuminating blush is if you add an illuminating glowy effect you have pores or texture it's gonna slightly emphasize but i don't notice anything on flattering wow i really like this i wish it did have like a little bit more pigment because i like a brighter blush but that's just like a very very faint complaint i am very very happy with this blush now it is 70 i'm not gonna tell you to spend 70 on a blush but me i'm a chanel blush fan this is limited edition i normally don't like warmer blushes this is a very pretty corally peachy warm blush looks really nice so i'm happy with it hey let's finally hop on into the two lip products that i picked up so we'll start off with the rouge coco bombs there were seven shades that launch in this collection again you can see all the swatches on erina coles video i picked up the shade my rose because i love rose lip colors these are 42 each which is why i only picked up one but here's what the box looks like that they come in so i have 9 18 my rose this product is made in france and it has an 18 month shelf life i absolutely love the white component it's super summery and springy white and gold i think it's just a beautiful combination and you open it up it is a snap closure and here is what my rose looks like it looks almost a little bit more coral and you can see that it is a sheer formulation and it is going to take some layering to get the color to show but let's see my lips are looking dry and crusty right now so we'll see how it looks over over that no lip liner so this essentially is just with one sweep that's subtle color to my lips honestly that is really pretty i love this color it has a subtle brightness that is bringing my face to life without it being too garish okay let's layer and as you layer it the brightness comes through even more this is a gorgeous spring summer lip color and it's a great way to add brightness to your face i really like this formula it's comfortable it's hydrating it's not too glossy but it's not completely flat matte as well you can see there's a slight sheen on my lips but it doesn't make the lips look thick or anything it's just really great to keep in your purse you don't have to have a mirror to apply it i really like this color i think i'm gonna wear this one today but before i do that let's get into the la comet la comete this kind of goes with the star blushes that i also ordered that are on their way i believe this was a whole separate launch there were eight shades total and all of these shades are a little bit more on the dramatic side so they're a little bit more red and deep and that's why i almost didn't pick this up but i did want to play around with this formula which is a luminous matte those are contradictory but okay lip colors 42 dollars each as well i'm not going to even attempt this shade name but it's 108 and here's the back if you need to see made in france 18 months shelf life and i love the packaging of these these are super luxe so this is what the component looks like and i love the little star detail here at the bottom i think that is so beautiful so this is shade 108 and to open it you press and then here comes the lipstick and there is chanel embossed on the lipstick itself so you can see this is a darker color but i want you to look very closely do you see there's some glimmers in this shade from when i swatched it earlier take a look you can see it's kind of sheer but it builds up pretty quickly and again you can see there's some glitter reflex in there let's see how it looks on the lips i haven't tried this one on the lips yet i'm normally not a fan of when lip colors or lipsticks have those glitters in there because i feel like sometimes it can make the lips look extra wrinkly emphasizes those let's see so here's oh wow that's nice just with one swipe it's not too dramatic which i really like and this is definitely more of like a neutral color comparing it to the brightness of the cocoa bomb that i just put on which typically tones like these are what i'm wearing i feel like this is an interesting launch of colors for the spring and summer because this is very fall like as well as the other colors in this collection build it up wow this shade is really pretty i was expecting it to be a little bit more dramatic but i'm happy that it's not i actually really really love this lip color i didn't think i would and i don't really see those glitter reflex on the lips which i like but i can definitely see why they call it a luminous matte i think because of the glitter in this there is a little bit of reflection but not flattering but it definitely has a matte finish as well it definitely feels drier than the cocoa bomb but it's very comfortable it doesn't feel like there's really anything on my lips and i applied this without a lip liner so the fact that i can get this precision without a lip liner with this lipstick really really great i like that i do have a couple lipsticks from chanel that i adore so i expect nothing less of these two and i'm very happy with the colors that i picked up i wasn't sure i would be okay guys so here is the final look it is quite chanel-esque to me i'm really feeling it quite sophisticated and neutral you know as i've been experimenting with chanel there's been a lot of hits and misses but i have to say now that i'm a little bit more well versed i was able to make some really good decisions this round i actually really like everything that i picked up i am loving the quad while it's not for everybody it's for me i really really love it the blush is really really pretty it's definitely the last thing that i needed in this video i did not need a peachy blush but it's gorgeous i will say it's not my favorite chanel blush though i have some chanel blushes that i like better than this but this one is still very pretty the cocoa i really love this formula it's super comfortable very trendy formula for this spring and summer i think you guys will like this and i'm super surprised at the rouge allure velvet lipstick that i picked up i love this color i think it's super mature and sophisticated and it's extremely comfortable so a small but mighty review loved everything that i got so i do recommend well at least what i picked up from this collection i think the items are really nice so that is all i have for today's video i hope you guys enjoyed it if you aren't subscribed to my channel already go ahead give me a little subscribe i would very much appreciate it and i will see you guys in the next one bye guys have a good one
