I looked at it, touched it, circled it, but unless I'm missing something major here, there was never ever so little actual material for so much money. The one thing I just couldn't understand was the lip palette.

The pigments were better than what you usually get in these Chanel quads. But that eye shadow compact is the one thing worth trying in the collection. Zoya came out with one several seasons ago), so I don't actually need either. The blush was also too light for me and looked unnatural.Īs for the items I liked, I already have very similar colors in my stash (including a violet nail polish. Even the bold reds are geared for women with rosier complexions who can pull of pink based and beige lip colors. The collection would probably look best on the cool-toned among us. The bad news for me is how most of the colors look on my skin: Not Good. It's darker than you'd expect, with the best item in the range being the deep violet nail polish and the chocolaty plum eye shadow in the Les 4 Ombres Quadra Eye Shadow (the silver gray is also very cute if less useful). The good news about Chanel Spring 2009 Bohemian Fantasy collection is the lack of any Barbieness.

They usually tend to be heavy on pink and other pastels which rarely agree with me. My expectations from spring makeup collections are always limited.
