The new Chanel Printemps Précieux de Chanel Collection for Spring 2013 has something for everyone- I love that the collection combines wearable, flattering shades with pops of color as well. I love how fresh the blush is for Spring and Summer, and the nail polishes are fantastic as well… but the real winners of the collection are the Les 4 Ombres in Raffinement, a perfect everday eyeshadow palette that’s worth the splurge, and the Poudre Signée de Chanel, a stunning highlight powder that makes the complexion glow with just the right amount of shimmer.

It’s been a little while since I did a neutral, everyday type of makeup look. The eyes can be built up, or down… and the neutral lips can be swapped for a pop of color. It’s really a very ‘customizable’ look… and one that is friendly for daily wear.  Overall I’m impressed with the collection, and I’ve been wearing it a lot in my day-to-day routine. Let me know if you picked up anything from the collection!
