Plumes Précieuses De Chanel has launched and will give you the perfect party look
What would constitute the perfect party make-up collection? This can be the only question Chanel had in mind when creating the new Plumes Précieuses De Chanel, because that is the end result: Luxurious, glamorous pieces that add up to the ultimate festive look.
Graceful and feminine, the collection is inspired by a feather's 'wispy softness... luxury and fantasy'. To Chanel, it is a collection of 'stunning evening makeup, like jewellery made of feathers and diamonds'. What this means in real terms, is an enchanting range of subtle shades, embellished with flecks of gold and silver to highlight, sculpt and illuminate your features.
Prices range from £18 to £47, so if you aren't going to splash out on the whole range, we think these four pieces will give you the foundation for an elegant take on party make-up this season:
Chanel Le Vernis Nail Colour Phenix, £18. A classic red hue in Chanel's long-lasting formula. Two coats give a high intensity, high gloss colour that dries quickly and won't chip. What more could you ask for?
Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof Long-Lasting Eyeliner, £19. This shimmering gold eyeliner will make your peepers pop with a hint of sparkle. Use on the inner corners, or outline your eyes for a full-on party look with this easy-to-use pencil-style liner.
Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet Luminous Matte Lip Colour in La Flamboyante, £26. It's almost impossible to create a classic party look without a statement red lip. This matte version is the perfect hue and matches the Phenix nail colour. Long-lasting and comfortable, you could easily forget you're wearing lipstick at all...
