Rogue Eyes For Autumn

When I first saw the Quadra Eyeshadow Palette in Candeur et Experience from the 2016 Chanel Fall Collection, Le Rouge, I was besotted. Chanel have released the most Autumnal makeup collection with the new Global Creative Makeup and Colour Designer, Lucia Pica. It's no doubt that Lucia is a big big fan of the colour red, injecting red hues all throughout the collection, making it one of the best Autumn makeup collections I have seen in such a long time. The deep reds, the orange tones, the edgier darker rogue shades, they all contribute to a more sexier, sultry makeup collection, something daring for Chanel, and something daring for those of us out there wanting to revamp our makeup for Autumn and Winter.

The first all matte eyeshadow palette from Chanel, Candeur et Experience, is so unusual for Chanel Beauty. Gone are the shimmery subtle lighter shades that are so familiar in the Chanel Quads, the new all matte palette encompasses all red undertones mixed in with caramel beige shades as well as darker cocoa brown, and of course the main attraction of the palette, the deep red that is just so intriguing. All 4 colours are so gorgeous and buttery and blend seamlessly, this is the most perfect eyeshadow palette for Autumn and Winter and I cannot wait to use this to its full potential over the coming months. 

There was one other item in the Rouge Collection that I just couldn’t not get, the Stylo Yeux Waterproof Eyeliner in Agape, a sultry bronze eyeliner in the creamiest of textures, ideal for smudging along the lash line for a smoked out alternative to plain black or brown. The eyeliner teamed together with the eyeshadows are just Bellissimo!

I ordered my products online from John Lewis (that free next day click and collect delivery is my saviour) but the collection is also available from Selfridges, Feel Unique, Boots and a few other places!
