I bought some Chanel Vitalumiere foundation today....

[harpsichordcarrier]

it ROCKS, really.
makes me look like I actually HAVE had some sleep in the last six months
have chucked my other stuff int he bin
and dd1 was playing with the Chanel lippy testers and when I stopped her she had a massive strop, yelling "BUT I NEEEEEEEED MAKEUP!!!"
she's not three till next month

any more chanel gals?

Spots here too. Been vitaluming on and off for 2/3 weeks and normally not spotty. Hmmm.

I have some, I like it but it is quite greasy - use sparingly.

No spots here but my skin is pretty good atm and I'm putting that down to pregnancy.

Have to admit though, the last couple of times I've been out I've just used touche eclat and blusher

Am loving my vitalumier liquid in cendre. Have had loads of compliments, preen....

I lovethe liquid in clair - great for my winter skin tone, but will be too pale for me soon. Any ideas on what the next shade up will be? No time at the moment to go on long shopping trips.

Am also (newly) spotty...

maybe I should try this stuff. I'm a touche elcat and powder woman in the main. re the spots - I don;t notice make up making me spotty as such, but if I don;t where any for several days my skin definitely looks better

cendre is between clair and beige I think.

glad its not just me-I really like it on the whole but could do without spots!

I have also got some vitalumiere.
When the makeup lady tested the colours on my skin she recommended that I took the darker shade, but when I went to put it on myself the next morning i thought she had made a big mistake as it looked too orange,but I blended it in well and it looks great, I've had a few compliments too. So can't be bad

I also treated myself to a Chanel nail polish (english rose) which is lovely and lasts very well and does not seem to chip off.

All I need now is for someone to recommend a really great lipstick,one that lasts, but not the type that you have to keep putting the gloss on top of the colour. (if you know what I mean)

I've sampled the fluid in Clair and the creme in beige. One's a bit too light and one is too pale. Think I prefer the creme though to the fluid.

Hmmm.

so?

I got some cod

it is called clair

and?
fgs blood oout of stone

looks extra fab applied with my MAC foundation brush

weeelllll
at first I quite liked it but though I use a tiny amount (really like half a pump)I thought yesterday that it maybe was a bit silvery adn too shiny looking a la pat butcher

I got a sample - the Chanel lady was absolutely crap - I think they'd sack her if they knew how useless she was.

I asked for a sample,
what colour she says,
I don't know
well I've only got beige (or summat)
don't you do it in different types
yes
which do you recommend?
its just a matter of choice really
she hands me the sample and that was it!

AND - its rubbish - well for battered old skin that needs all its imperfections hiding anyway.

Sorry cod I won't be buying it - I'm sticking with my Estee Lauder!
