Chanel just released the Les Beiges Makeup Collection for summer 2021 and I immediately ordered most of the collection to review and swatch for you below.
Rouge Coco Flash Lipsticks
There are four new Rouge Coco Flash Lipsticks in this collection and I purchased three of them.
158 Dawn is a brownish nude shade with a slight pink tint to it.
162 Sunbeam is a warm peachy pink coral shade.
166 Heat is a warm burnt red shade with a little bit of shimmer in it. On me this shade has a hint of orange and is perfect for summer.
The only shade I did not purchase was Flame because it looked like it was a little bit more of a berry toned red and berry shades are not my favorite shades on myself.
Les Beiges Eye Shadow Palettes
Chanel released two new eyeshadow palettes to the Les Beiges Collection in Intense and Tender. I purchased the Intense palette because I love the earthy tones with that darker greenish shade.
The Intense Eye Shadow Palette has beautiful nude, sand, and gold shades. The darkest shade is a dark green with hints of gold.
These shades are definitely more neutral and not too warm on my skin tone and are the perfect types of colors that I like to wear in the summertime.
The shades in this eyeshadow palette are much more pigmented and intense than the other Les Beiges eyeshadow palette I have in shade Medium. The shadows wear all day on me and do not crease or fade on my eyes. The shimmer in these eyeshadows is very smooth and does not emphasize texture at all.
I skipped the Tender Eyeshadow palette only because it looked very pink toned and I do not wear those shades on my eyes because they are not usually very flattering on me. The swatches I have seen of that palette are very beautiful though.
Nail Colors
The new Chanel Nail Colors are all metallic and shimmery in a range of neutral shades.
893 Glimmer is a pale sandy nude with silver shimmer.
895 Sunlight is a taupe pink nude with an icy sheen.
897 Golden Sand is a warm golden metallic bronze.
899 Solar is a deep rusty bronze with gold and pink shimmer.
This nail color collection is a neutral lovers dream. All of these shades will be beautiful with bronzy and glowy make up looks worn by the beach or pool and even during the transition into the fall months as well.
New Cream Bronzer Shade
Chanel also released a new darker shade in the iconic Les Beiges Healthy Glow Cream Bronzer in 395 Soleil Tan Deep Bronze. This shade looks beautiful and I was very tempted to get it just so I could review it and compare to the previous shade, but it looks much darker than the original shade and feel like it might be way too dark for my skin tone. I don’t want to purchase it if I won’t end up actually using it so I might pick this up at a later date after I can see it and swatch it in person.
I am so glad to see the shade range in this wonderful bronzer expanding and that Chanel is listening to us and giving us more shades.
Final Thoughts
The Chanel Les Beiges Makeup Collection is always one of my favorites every year. I always love the summary colors and tones and get a lot of use out of the products every year. This year‘s collection is no exception. I love all of the neutral, earthy tones and every single piece that I picked up.
The Chanel Les Beiges Makeup Collection is currently available on chanel.com and in Chanel Boutiques and will be making its way to department store counters soon.
