Are they worth the exorbitant prices?
I was looking at their new blush and it was 42 whopping dollars! But it was gorgeous!
Do you use it?
Is it worth it?

I recently purchased my first Chanel lipgloss and I L-O-V-E it. It's called Equinoxe. It's this pink glittery color and it's beautiful!! It was like $26 I think and I remember thinkin :perplexed but I don't regret it one bit. I get compliments every time I wear it.

I have a Chanel Blush in Fandango (LOVES IT!) and an Eyeshadow in Amethyst (VERY pretty when swatched...okay when on). I will definetely purchase more Chanel items, in particular I want to try the Glossimers.

I use their primer, I think it's called Base Lumière, I love it. I also use their lip gloss, very beautiful colors, I love it too. I've used their hair perfume too, it smells really good and all, but it dried my hair out, maybe I was using too much.
I have a couple of their lipglosses....LOVE THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have and love Sirop, one of their glosses. I have another one, but I can't remember the name. It's a semi-opaque nudey rose and I really like it too. The texture is really soft and creamy.
Oh and Sirop looks crazy bright pink in the tube, but I've seen women from Alicia Keys to Oprah type complexions and beyond pull it off.

I have not purchased anything from Chanel in several years...
Still hanging on to my beloved Lip Blush in Bizarre(too old to use -BUT I can not bring myself to throw it out) and Nail Lacquer in Navy(which I still sport)

Lingerie for the Lips: Whether applied dramatically for a look reminiscent of a '30s flapper or spread evenly for an all-over pout, Lip Blush by Chanel has a soft, velvety texture which creates a variety of stunning effects.

I have had a glossimer before. It was pretty good, not sure if I would repurchase. I like lancome lip products better for the price.

that new lancome lip gloss is very nice and it last. You only need to apply about twice a day

I love Chanel. I love the clothes, shoes, bags, and MAKEUP!
The powder products (blush and e/s) are extremely finely milled and I like that. I have irreelle (sp) blush in mystery (gorgeous red bronze brown). I also have several Joues Contraste blush in rose petale, rose bronze, and orchid rose. Rose petale is a baby pink with very fine shimmer, rose bronze is a glimmery pigmented peach that glimmers in an almost fishscale like manner, orchid rose is more peachy. I find their blushes last all day and have a great texture. I plan to get the new blushes. They look gorgeous.
I love the glossimers. Spark (bright sheer red w/ gold shimmer), red shine (LOVE! shimmery watermelony red sheer, so fruity and sexy), sesame (pale baby doll pink), and sirop (sheer petal pink, perfect for all complexions). Unity is a rich honey shade that looks great on many women. I ABSOLUTELY adore Chanel eyeshadows! The soft touch eyeshadows are amazing. I also love the quads esp. Beige de Chanel (I think it's called).

ooooh I do I do I do :pepper:
LOVE IT!! I think it's worth every penny (that of course could just be my inner bougie french girl speaking). I love all things CHANEL. I don't wear make up very often but when I do, it's mostly CHANEL. I own two MAC pieces - that's it. I love their bronzers and blush...very fine and they feel like heaven on the skin. I have five shades of lip gloss but I mostly wear Sirop. I know $26 is a lot for a lipgloss but it just feels divine. The eye shadows and mascaras are good too. All my brushes are by CHANEL as well. :drunk:

I love Chanel makeup. They discontinued my favorite Force glossimer but they have several lookalikes. The shadows are good too. Its worth the price.

I only have one of their e/s quads: Blue Notes. They are finely milled, very shimmery, and smooth. Not the most pigmented in comparison to MUFE and MAC but defintely provide that soft pretty look.
I'm not so sure I would buy many shadows from them but I have heard nothing but rave reviews about their lippies, foundation, and primer.....

I was really pleased with the Clear Glossimer I had. It's hard for me to find a long-lasting clear gloss. Now that I can't find my Mattese gloss (I think it was discontinued), I may repurchase this one.
