Chanel describes the collection as, "A palette of flower-garden-inspired shades brings a fresh vibrancy to face and fingertips". On first glance, this collection contains a fairly even mixture of bright shades and pastels. Many of this shades appear to be pinks, almost equally split between warm and cool shades.
Here is the newest Chanel collection...
Soleil Tan de Chanel Moisturizing Bronzing Powder - The four go-together shades of this sun-kissed palette are all you need for a just-back-from-the-beach look. Worn alone of blended together, they highlight or 'tan' skin for a subtle, natural glow.
- Bronze Coral - shades of corals and bronzes (best for warm complexions)
- Bronze Rose - shades of roses and bronzes (best for cool complexions)
Soleil Tan de Chanel Sheer Illuminating Fluid - Sheer, weightless liquid instantly brightens skin and evens out skin tone. Light-reflecting pigments provide radiance and luminosity. Botanical extracts soften, smooth, and moisturize. Oil free. Fragrance free.
- Sunkissed - bronze liquid targeted for light to medium skin tones
Les 4 Ombres Quadra Eye Shadow - One essential compact offers unlimited eye looks, with shade combinations that range from matte to satin to shimmer. Versatile smudge-proof formula can be applied dry for subtle shading, or dampened for more intense colour, all with long-wearing results - even in extreme climates. Dermatologist tested.
- Lilum - deep warm burgundy/pale pink/cool gray lilac/medium cool taupe
Ombres Contraste Duo Eye Shadow Duo - This foolproof pairing of complementary shades - in two unique textures - is housed on one convenient compact. The softly shimmering light shade is a creamy powder, which can be worn alone for a luminous effect, or as a base to extend the wear of the accompanying deep-toned shadow. The dark shade has intense micronized pigments for true colour application, and a matte finish to create depth and contour. Two applicators are included: a foam-tip to apply the shadows and a brush to blend. Available in six essential shade harmonies designed to take the guesswork out of harmonzing and applying eye shadow.
- Khaki Discret - deep forest green/pale green shimmer
Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eye Liner - Waterproof, smudge-proof eye liner delivers long-lasting definition with a twist of the wrist: Colour winds up when you need it, winds down when you don't.

Inimitable Waterproof Mascara - The mascara that delivers it all - volume, length, curl, and precise separation - in a long-wearing, waterproof formula that won't flake or smudge. Pro-Vitamin B hydrates and conditions lashes to keep them supple and healthy-looking. A unique brush design provides perfect definition of lashes, even the finest.

This is such a pretty collection and I can see why people were so excited about this one! My favorite piece of the collection is the Glossimer in Pink Peony, the brighter pink shade. I have read in several places that these Glossimers are very sheer so I bet that I could very easily pull this one off, even with all the shimmer in the formula. I like the Eye Shadow Quad but it's not my favorite one that this company has done so I think I can easily skip it this time around. I really like the concept of the Duo Eye Shadow, but the deep green combination would not be my first choice this time of the year. I will be paying attention to this product and the shades that it is available in throughout the coming seasons.
To finish off my sun-kissed look this summer, I want the Bronzing Powder in Bronze Rose. For some reason, I have been obsessed with bronzing and self-tanners for the past week or two and I want to start getting color even though summer is weeks away (this is not my normal mood). For the finishing touch, I love both the Morning Rose and Beige Petale nail polishes.
