I am a 42-year-old former educator and makeup enthusiast. I love discovering the subtle nuances that exist between formulas, shades, and so forth. If you are like me, you have had some makeup regrets in the past - either from missing out on something you still can't stop thinking about or from giving in to the hype and buying something that you don't love. My goal is to provide information on luxury beauty products to help prevent these regrets so you can curate a collection that you truly love.
I am always on top of the latest sales and new releases to keep you informed. I post everything on ShopMy and recommend bookmarking this page and checking it regularly: go.shopmy.us/lexijong

I like the look of the blush formula in these, I like that the coral especially has that golden half shift. I will probably still get both blushes. I really wish the stylos were not so glitter, but that dahlia color is definitely worth the glitter.
Came back for all the comparisons! I think I'll wait for the Dior blush/hi-liters to drop first, *and* your review of them (of course!) Thanks again, Lexi. Have a great weekend ❤
Omg Quartz is definitely your shade!!!It’s perfect with your eyes!!! I got it and I love it so much but Gravitational !!!! 💚💚💚 it’s my perfect eye color shade … oh my goodness they are so gorgeous!!!! The champagne one is so pretty too … Thank you so much for sharing!!!!! 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 so happy!!!!
Thank you so much for showing the black/pink lip gloss! I needed a "real" review and video, and yours was great! I'm going to try it. It looked so pretty on you! 🥰
Thank you Lexi! ❤ love the review and I will try to get the 2 duos and some stylos I hesitaded for the blue but with the green it looks fantastic ! Do you think I could use the blue stylo with the palette Bleu Rivage?? I do hope they launch the collection quickly here in Belgium....it s already in the UK....😊
I can’t wait for the stylo’s and I might pick up all six of them. I wish they still had Metallic Flash, as it was a perfect shimmering taupe. The pink/plum blush/highlighter is calling my name too. Tomorrow I’m going to contact your Chanel SA with a hefty shopping list. Also, I hope you had a safe happy 4th of July!
Hi Lexi! Thanks for the swatches. I ordered the pink and lilac stylos and a polish from the collection, but I think I need to contact Paloma and have her send me the berry blush & highlighter duo. It’s so pretty, especially blended together. 😊
The pink Chanel blush duo is so pretty, looks lovely on you. As others have mentioned the colour is a tad too intense for me. Thank you for another wonderful review, I always pop to your channel to see the true colour of make up before I make a purchase 🙂💖
Thank you so much Lexi for a wonderful comprehensive video for this Chanel collection! The comparisons, demos and swatches are incredibly helpful! Everything looks so beautiful on you and I love the eye look you created with the stylos. ❤
Hi Lexi- really a pretty look.. I love the WA highlighter stick in “LIT” but I mostly use a Chanel Baum Essencial that came out a year or so ago -it was a light pinkish peach with a beautiful gleam to it. I, like you, dab it on the high points of my cheeks and it works beautifully and my face looks fresh and luminous for most of the day. I like it more than a powder highlighter because it doesn’t start looking dry (like powder highlighters tend to do on me). Thanks for the great video & swatches!
Loved the video, dear Lexi, and so many very good helpful swatches again, thank you!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤩I really need that purple eyeshadow stick! Further i'm not sure, that cooler blush/highlighter duo is stunning and the highlighter shade is really special, but first think. It's not here in Europe yet. Thanks so much again, this was so helpful and it all looks so beautiful on you, loved the eyeshadow sticks all mixed on your eyes, it reminded me a bit of a quad from Pat that i decluttered (eyes to sensitive), Nocturnal Nirvana, really nice eyelook as well Lexi!!! Have a wonderful day!!!😘😘😘😘
Hi Lexi, great review i love coral blush, but I probably going to skip it. It’s too similar to spring collection duo, and I got Dior poppy coral as well. The highlighter I don’t like that gold. I have warm gold from Les Symbols , and I love it. From stylo i might get bleu one🤔 Have a great 4th of July weekend🎉🙏❤️
I was so pleased to see your review of this collection. I wasn’t impressed by the promo photos and few swatches I had seen, but your face swatches have changed my mind. Looks like I’ll be buying some new Chanel after all. 😊 As for the baume essentials, I love them. My skin is bone dry and I’m an “oldster” so I appreciate something more subtle for everyday looks. BTW, I frequently were them on my lips. LE shades Lilas and Dragée were particularly gorgeous worn on the lips. I really wish Chanel would make Lilas part of the regular line up.
I may be a weirdo, but I like the blush in the peach/gold compact and the highlighter in the pink compact-not to wear together, just in general. I wish the gold highlighter was a little lighter and that the pink blush was more plum/purple and less fuchsia. I think I’ll be skipping these. And as usual, your comparisons with all the recent blushes was so incredibly helpful! (I use that BoBo X Chikuhodo brush every day for bronzer after you introduced it to me! I even went back and bought a second one!)
Lexi how does Chanel baume essential compare with westmen atelier lit up stick in parla limited edition stick? Which I have so wondering if I should get or skip. Thanks 🙏🏼
Hi Lexi, the pink highlighter duo reminds me of Tom Ford's Bicoastal blush and highlighter duo. I don't recall if there was a coral or orange version. The No1 de Chanel Lip and Cheek Baume in Vibrant Coral is another orange comparator. I suspect looking through my collection, which includes many of the Chanel blushes that you swatched, I can pass on the blush duos. I will pick up one or two of the cream eyeshadow sticks for the novelty, maybe the green and orange. I find that they dry out quickly and prefer Bobbi Brown's formula.
Lexi, the blushes look beautiful & the eye contours look pigmented & fun for summer! I’ll probably pick up the coral blush (you know me & coral 😆) and couple of the eye contour sticks. Thanks for the great swatches & reviewing so quickly. Have a Happy 4th of July!! 😊🌺
@@daniellesebire2508 ya nobody sits there hanging on every word. I watch while I work. Maybe a note next to the link( like another reviewer did) stating it’s not available. I watched 99% of this so she must have said it in 2 seconds
@@piercingtheveil40Lexi gives a detailed explanation, not "2 seconds". If you didn't bother to listen, that's on you - don't blame the content creator for your obvious mistake!! 🙄
Thanks for another great video - very helpful! Will pick up one of the blush duos and a few of the stylos. I love them as well, but I mostly have darker ones, which I use as liner and for a little extra deepening in the outer corner. My favorites so far have been beige pearl, burgundy pearl and rouge noir - I have green eyes and those really make them pop!
