Chanel Introduces Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss
Inspired by the classic Chanel Rouge Allure range of lipstick, Chanel has released Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss – um “new generation” of lip gloss. The Extrait de Gloss offers extremely rich color, intense shine, and a smooth, silky texture that feels luxurious and looks dramatic. I’m a big fan of lip gloss and I had a chance to try this at the makeup counter. It wasn’t sticky at all and I loved the shine – it gave a nice finish to the look. Rouge Allure Extrait de Gloss is available in nine shades and can be purchased at Chanel makeup counters and online for $32.

San Francisco Exhibit: Discover the Secrets of the Handbag
When I received information last week about a Chanel handbag exhibit in San Francisco my day was made. Usually the really good events are reserved for NY but once in a while, San Francisco gets a taste of the glamorous life.
This coming weekend Chanel San Francisco is hosting Les Secrets Du Sac, The Secrets of the Handbag, an exhibit exploring the iconic Chanel 2.55 Handbag. The presentation will include bags from the Parisian archives, as well as bags from the new collections. I will definitely be there – I’m not sure they’ll allow pictures but I will let you know how it is regardless. I can’t wait! For more information on the history of the 2.55 bag and how to spot a fake check out a previous post.

The Chanel Smoky Eye: Obter o olhar
One of the most popular beauty looks for eyes is the sexy, smoldering smokey eye. This look comes in all colors now, but the mother of smokey eyes is black and grey. Chanel has released a how-to face chart so that you can achieve this classic look without the help of a beauty entourage. In four easy steps (and presumably Chanel cosmetics) you can go from blah to glam. Only three Chanel cosmetics are used to get this look – Ombres Contraste Duo in Gris/Subtil, Inimitable Intense Mascara in Noir, e Stylo Yeux Waterproof Eyeliner in Ébène.
