Chanel Christmas 2012 Makeup Collection

Swoon! How gorgeous is Chanel’s latest Christmas Makeup Collection? I could go absolutely insane with all the sparkle and the festive mood of this collection. Once again, Chanel has outdone themselves, and as much as I loved their 2012 Christmas Collection, this one is even more dazzling!

Last year’s collection was all about subtle romance, this year it’s all about golden bronze, sparkling jewels and an antique vintage luster!

Check out my hand picked faves from this collection…

I am smitten with Chanel’s REGARD SIGNÉ DE CHANEL limited edition eyeshadow quad called Harmonie du Soir. That gold is uber glam and comes out super sleek (the picture just doesn’t do it justice) and the pretty cranberry shade in bottom corner is to-die-for!

Chanel’s  ILLUSION D’OMBRE in “Apparence” is another glam gold eye shade, this time in a cream shadow pot.

POUDRE UNIVERSELLE LIBRE in “Revêrie” is a gorgeous face powder with subtle sparkle, perfect for the holidays.

Just one tip when using this powder; check your face under different light to make sure you’re not too sparkly! The key is to add a subtle glow, not turn your face into a Christmas tree. Less is always more!

LÈVRES SCINTILLANTES lip gloss, in the colour “Allégorie” will give you a perfect pout with it’s chic and once again, subtle sparkle! It reminds me a bit of SPARKLE D’OR from Chanel’s 2012 Christmas Collection, but this time around, in a soft, pouty pink. Chanel glosses are my favourites because they feel lovely on the lips without any stickiness and always look amazing!

All the products from this collection are currently available at Chanel counters nationwide, and are all limited edition products.
