Pearls and Chanel go hand in hand. Coco Chanel’ s belief that „the light-reflecting property of pearls enhanced a woman’s natural beauty by bringing a delicate luminosity to her skin“ inspired Peter Philips, the Global Creative Director of Chanel make-up, to design the S/S 2011 Les Perles de Chanel make-up collection. He used the iridescent reflections of pearls to flatter face and fingertips.
Some products were seen already on the runway, please click here for my previous post.
There is no doubt that the three limited nail polishes will be absolute bestsellers.
511 Pearl Drop – white pearl
513 Black Pearl – pearly grey shimmer with deep blue and green reflections (so hot!)
515 Pêche Nacrée – soft tender peach
The limited edition Ombres Perlées de Chanel eyeshadow palette is also among my must-haves.
It includes beautiful shades that you can play with, perfect for summery smokey eyes: Blanc Perle, Rose Porcelaine, Violine Clair, Gris Vert and Gris Noir Scintillant.
Another gorgeous product is the limited edition Poudre Universelle Shimmering Powder in Rose Merveille – a pale pink with subtle sparkles that will make your skin look fresh and radiant.
The Glossimers are available in two new shades: Nakkar (raspberry) and Aragonite (iridescent white).
The S/S 2011 Les Perles de Chanel make-up collection is available now in the US, other launch dates (depending on where you live) are January 8th and January 28th, 2011.
Please contact your nearest Chanel beauty counter for further information.
