Chanel Spring 2010 Collection - Details
‘Coco’ Chanel left an indelible imprint on countless women with beautiful, practical and lasting designs that enhanced a woman’s natural allure.
Today, Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, honors her legacy with LES IMPRESSIONS DE CHANEL — a collection of clean, classic neutrals that are infinitely wearable and effortlessly chic. Quintessential shades, ranging from pink and beige to warm brown and khaki, enhance the complexion and illuminate the face, highlighting a woman’s natural beauty.
Empreinte de Chanel
This highlighting powder combines subtly shimmering shades of rosewood, beige and brown for a uniquely flattering effect. Skin takes on a natural warmth and luminosity, as if bathed in the softest candlelight. Ideal for brightening the face or emphasizing the cheek or browbone with a unique beveled brush. Pure CHANEL: the world-renowned CC signature imprint.
