I agree so much and I’m mostly a luxury shopper. I do think it’s going to get worse now because Chanel and other luxury brands aren’t doing as well financially and have much more competition. Their strategy appears to be cutting back instead of innovation. It’s interesting that Prada isn’t giving us a dozen palettes but a handful with a fantastic formulas even with exciting color stories and pops of color. Paying top dollar for lesser quality is ridiculous 😡

I love luxury makeup and my favorite brands are Chanel and Chantecaille. I used to buy more Chanel before the Collective took over; I feel they’re trying too hard with gimmicks now and color stories that don’t work for my very fair, cool toned complexion (BR12). As far as Chantecaille is concerned, I still like a lot of their products, but they’ve gone nuts with their pricing! The new duo eye shadow palettes would have been in my collection already, but the size of the product and their price point has me waiting for a big sale, even though I might miss out on them. I’ll live…Oh, and Guerlain’s colors are awful right now and I’m boycotting their new Rouge G lipsticks. I’ll admit I did buy the Chantecaille Cheetah eye shadow and 2 lipsticks from that collection as well as two of the new Chanel cream to powder blushes, which are excellent. Summary: I’m way more deliberate with my purchases. Great video today!

Beautiful looks Sofia. I’m not into these Chanel palettes at all and definitely no on the matte blushes. I did get 3 of the new Chanel crème to powder blushes that you recommended and they are pretty great. I’m tempted by the Hermes eye shadow. Only because I recently bought the bronzer (totally influenced by Nikki LaRose) and I love it!! Best bronzer ever! It’s like silk going on the skin. This makes me want to try their eye shadows since you like them so much.

You are so spot on with your analysis!! I returned my Chanel Divination. It was dusty! I like that they did something different and want to support that, but the quality stunk imo. I wish they had used the matte formula of the Eclat de Nuit quad. That would have been amazing. It would have been great to have a brown blush instead of another orange-and I love orange blush! I bought the fall Hermes palette and all 3 lipsticks-I love it all! I probably shouldn’t have gotten the golden balm…but I regret nothing! 😂😂😂 I have one of the new Tom Ford lipsticks in Understated. The shade is beautiful BUT I hate the way it wears. It may just be me, but it wears off my lips in a patchy way. I’ve tried no primer, different primers, lip pencil, no pencil …it still does it. I much prefer the reformatted Dior satins or the Mario. They wear beautifully! You mentioned that the TF is more sheer than the Mario, so maybe that’s why it wears off me in an unflattering way. I haven’t tried the TF lip liners. Pat McGrath, CT, and About Face (Yes, About Face) are my 3 DO NOT BUDGE lipliners. I’ll stick with them, I think. You did save me from lip liner FOMO!! 😂😂💕💕

Just saw the eye and cheek palette from Chanel Holiday collection. 😳 My opinion is: Not even for free!😁 Fuchsia pink, bright mauve and mustard orange are never on my wish list for eyeshadows/blushes.😂 Definitely is something different and I am sure many people will appreciate this. I do appreciate but in a different way. All these 2024 Holiday collections (Chanel, Dior, Gucci, Guerlain, YSL and few others) help me to save a lot of money. TF Soleil Neige eyeshadow quad is still on my radar but the quality must be exceptional. I am a bit disappointed that you didn’t do a dedicated review for Hermes limited edition collection. I was expected to see at least 2 looks with the eyeshadow quad. But I understand the reason: you will never get the same number of views like with this video today because Hermes is way too expensive even for luxury makeup consumers.

Yes! Merit lipsticks are the best! I discovered them a month ago when I was looking for a fall color. I picked up L’Avenue and it is gorgeous. I’m pretty sure this is the most comfortable lipstick I’ve ever had. I bought a Tom Ford lipstick the same day and I barely use it, but I’ve since bought two more Merit lipsticks in Tiger and Maison. These somehow have a way of feeling hydrating without being too slippy, and then drying down to a nice matte that stays on for hours. Don’t sleep on these. I’m going back to get the color Baby soon. Great video! ❤

Personally I love more the formula of this chanel tarot blush versus the winter glow blushes. I like that matte blurry not hardly pressed . It looks very nice on the skin. Kinda like the matte guerlain blushes. In general the blushes on skin are pretty quite repetitive in color. However, i much enjoyed the beautiful cream blushes they released. I for one feel that Chanel is getting out of boredomland . Hits and misses but it's a bit more creative. How do you like the purples in the tarot vs lilas poudre? I personally don't have any more purples in a palette ( my old huda was old 😂 ) However to me purples, green are more suited to singles and / or colorful liners to accent a look, so I'm in no hurry for this quad

I do love the undertone of the green that is in the Chanel palette better than other greens that I have and would purchase it if it were a single color but the remainder of the palette is just meh to me. I love luxury beauty but I have paired back my purchases dramatically this year and doubt that I will even be a rouge next year, LOL! Surprisingly, for someone who wouldn't really even look at drugstore makeup, I have found some wonderful products that rival the high end, at my local CVS. I have a new found appreciation for NYX and love their lip liners and Lip Lingerie lipsticks. I think that as luxury beauty prices have surpassed reasonable price points and their quality has become questionable, it has allowed drugstore brands to close the gap and I don't feel the need anymore to whip open my purse and put an Hermes lipstick on just to show off my Hermes tube! Having said that, I might pick up the Hermes e/s quad because I do like those colors all together. We will see!! Deborah

I agree with the Chanel eyeshadow palettes. I got the purple/green Divination palette and I was disappointed because it was so dry. I had to get it because I don’t have any cool lavender/purple duo shades. The colors are nice, but they are not luxury quality. Also I don’t get Chanel’s obsession with orange blushes either. Chanel had that awful limited pouch collection, and they keep releasing products that are not really classy at all.

The Chanel fall eyeshadow quad is like IPhone 16: just provide different color, minimum or no upgrades, no accessories comes in the box and charges $$$$ which banked loyal Apple fans will totally buy everything Apple sells. That was the good old Steve Jobs days long time ago. Despite Chanel tries to put different color schemes, the formula is all matts. There are no shimmers and topper sparkles which cost more than matts eyeshadow. I would like to wait for Chanel holiday or spring/ winter eyeshadow quad since I heard that formula is baked gelee. For IPhone leather cases: Apple uses recycled leather and is prone to wear and tear which charges $60.00 which contains Apple logo on the back.

Just my opinion, but here’s my long analysis (so sorry it’s long) of my experience 😊❤ -The chanel purple/mustard mucky quad looks fantastic on me - the colors look much nicer on skin and actually kind of “natural”’ even though the colors seem, odd - they come across like shadow-n-contour, similar to a natural brown/purple look would , but not using the typical neutral contouring shades - I don’t know how or why this works…. Maybe bc it’s “bruisy” colors - it also seems cool toned but pulls warm-ish (even the purple pulls warm for a purple) and this contrasts well w my blue eyes - it contrast like an orange would (the green and mustard do), but isn’t the typical orange, so it looks unique - I don’t like orange personally, though it does of course contrast very nicely - and I’m not edgy or artistic, but it looks *mellow adult* edgy on me - I didn’t really think it would work - I have mucky yellows/mustards (wasn’t that a trend at some point?) and they don’t look as good as this Chanel - there is something to these colors that I don’t understand why it would work - contrasting the purples w the mucky mustard or green looks super The purple blush doesn’t work as a blush but it does blend all my makeup and makes my skin glow underneath-in between my freckles - I have a few finishing powders and nothing gives this translucency to my skin - I don’t have any purple powder though, so maybe that’s the trick - but, it does matte down any shiny glow, so I have to go with either a matte look w this or not use it - it doesn’t matte out like chalky powder, but it does overpower any glossy look I also think the brown/orange eyeshadow quad looks really good on you and everyone I’ve seen - it doesn’t look unique in the pan , but something in the undertone is coming out interesting and looks really nice on people I see on KZitem - I don’t know if it’s one of the colors in there or what - something about it looks different to what it appears to be and different to usual brown-orange looks - it’s subtle though -so I didn’t get it and probably won’t bc I can’t understand what is making the undertone look so interesting and good on everyone - so it’s a chance I can’t be sure of The orange blush also has this interesting tone … I think - I don’t have this either so I don’t know - but I don’t really want another matte blush - it looks good on everyone and something is unique w this too - I’m not sure how much orange blush is for me though 😊😅

Chanel released something more appropriate for spring imo. I love lavender blushes but that is veeery light. I know in Asian beauty they like the super light blushes to make their cheeks more full. They put it more in the front of the face. It’s really not something we do here.

I’ve found that the Lisa Eldridge Insanely Saturated lippies are a straight formula dupe to my matte Hermes lipsticks. Unfortunately the colour range is terrible, but it’s pretty incredible to see something so comparable for half the cost. Even the packaging has the gratifying magnetic closure.

I like soft elegantly shiny ✨eyeshadows. By elegantly shiny, I meant that will improve the look of a 50 year old hooded eyelid. In 2024 I do not think that Chanel, regarding eyes, worths the money. I still like their cream complexion products, this year’s summer face palettes and the setting powder. Do I use Chanel everyday? No! There are for me better price+quality+packaging luxury and non luxury option out there now. The same applies to Tom Ford.

I am a stricter judge of luxury makeup than I am of a drugstore brand. The formula, packaging and colour have to be exactly right. It’s my money ❤ I tend to prefer the mid-luxury brands. I am flirting more with Asian brands than with French fashion houses these days.

I do not like Chanel in general, but I think they are just milking the market because the Chanel customer is fine with it. Let's remember they lowered the quality on their bags and increased prices absurdly, and people still go for those bags. They are reading the market and giving customers what they want, in my opinion, which is just "branding". While I do wish Hermès make up was not so expensive, I like how they conduct their launches: not too many, few products for each launch. I think it respects the image of the Maison well. Let's see how long they keep that up.

Sounds like a rant. Can’t say that I blame you. Regarding the Chanel eyeshadow palette, I believe the desaturation is by design because Chanel has had pigmented products. I believe the beauty of the palette is in the layering. The green layered over the darker purple->violet which is stunning with the amethyst liner. Also, the darker purple layered over the lilac color creates a more pigmented purple. With an unconventional color story, I believe the brand wanted a buildable formula.

I skipped this whole collection from Chanel (the nail polish, which is a similar shade to one they did about ten years ago) is sold out. I have skipped everything from Tom Ford for the last several years bc who is paying almost $100 for a 'limited edition' eyeshadow quad that (sometimes) doesn't even have .20oz of product in it? The Rose Veil palette has .18oz of product and the Insolent Rose quad has .35oz of product, what is going on here?!?!?? I've also stopped buying luxury handbags bc just bc you CAN raise the price doesn't mean you SHOULD.

Yeah they could've made the blood orange blush a nude or a pink or something that's considered more wearable,but that wouldn't go with the theme of fall/Halloweenish collection,this collection is beautiful & the formula in the blushes is so creamy so smooth & I think the eyeshadow formula is also smooth & nice...I'm glad Chanel did something different and unique bc we can get all the everyday colors anywhere anytime but this is totally different & I think it's fun as well so we don't get bored..the blush formula on these is so amazing that I'm actually considering getting a backup of the lavender shade..if it's 2 light 4 u u can use it as an eyeshadow,it's very pretty on the eyes & is lighter than any purple or lavender eyeshadow u probably have so I like it that way,but I also like it as a blush topper on the cream to powder blushes specifically the granat profund,it's beautiful over that blush,I also like it on the tips of my nose & chin..if ur creative & u look at makeup as artistic expression as well as improving ur appearance,u will find fun & interesting ways 2 incorporate this unique collection in ur makeup routine or just something different 4 once in awhile.

I skipped Chanel fall. Love Hermes fall quad. Now lipsticks. I am little bit disappointed. I got burgundy one, it’s not really so dramatic. I might still keep it, cause I do like that interesting texture, and can be worn as stain. So it’s great to wear as addition to fall makeup, but definitely not a star, like wearing as a main focus., like Chanel 31 Le rouge in 2.55 , from last year. I just picked up, and I love it, it’s dramatic, but still very wearable. I thought that it’s cool tone, but on me, it’s quite warm, and the color is just perfect, not that brownish burgundy, which is a big no on my complexion 🤪 I have enough lipsticks, especially reds, so I am not buying anymore , well at least this year lol Lip liners, I don’t really use them. I have a few from Chanel, but my favorite is Lisa Eldridge new one in 2c paired with Chanel 6 a.m lipstick Have a blessed day🙏❤️

Absolutly. The new divination quad isn’t great. The dark purple is super patchy to apply and doesn’t wear at all well. That lavender blush doesn’t not look great on you . Orange is pretty. But it’s all so blah. And I love Chanel (usually)

I disappointed by Chanel eyeshadow formula and if I didn’t make a mess on the quad, I would send it back. I have one Mario lipstick and my issue with it is it has some taste or certain smells that make me feel bad, I had same issue with previous Tom ford lipstick and new one doesn’t have it or it has more pleasant smell or taste. That’s why I prefer buying TF but I look for discounts.

Thank you for making a video about the things I have been ranting about all year. The last Chanel palette I bought was Eclat de Nuit. And I feel like Chanel has given us mediocre quality more and more. For fall I bought that nail color, Phenomene, when I found it in stock. It's fun and different. But that's it. Those useless fall blushes are $72 each. At least the cream to powder, which is a lovely formula, was better priced and more wearable. But I have grown out of having to impress my girlfriends by pulling out the latest high priced thing. I want quality for my money. I have a ton of luxury makeup. And I really need very little that's new. Chanel and Dior are skating by on their names. But a few more poor quality high priced collections won't buy them any new fans and are driving the rest of us away. Their loss. Thanks for the video.💚

Hi Sofia, So you are not ecstatic about the new TF lipsticks and lip liners. 🤔I think the friendship with Jen will be tested for the first time.😁 You are spot on with your analysis. This year I didn’t buy any eyeshadow from Chanel and I got only one blush: the duo peachy blush. On the other hand I have 5 of the permanent eyeshadows plus the limited edition one ($184 in Australia) and 3 blushes from Hermes and I love them all. I can’t wait to see the new eyeliners from Hermes. Also they will come with a new limited edition pink highlighter in November. I like the eyeshadows from Chanel 2025 spring collection and if they are not glittery and/or too sheer I will get at least one. Thanks for sharing!🙂
