Fall Beauty

Chanel Venise collection

Along with the updates to our fall roster of clothing and accessories are the major beauty offerings by our favorite fashion houses. This season in particular, no one hits the mark like Chanel.

Created by the Global Creative Director of Chanel Beauté, Peter Philips, the immaculate Venise color collection is an ode to Mademoiselle Chanel’s passion for the magnificent city of Venice. A palette of aquatic shades inspired by the power, creativity, infrastructure, and architecture of the city, this is a delightful but elegant make-up collection that is subdued by day and dramatic by night.

Among our favorites are the exclusive Eye Gloss which results in enchantingly glossy eyes (a major fall trend!); Les Tissages de Chanel in Tweed Sienna, a universally flattering blush that is a popping pink mixed with flecks of gold; Le Crayon Lèvres in Praline D’or, a nude lip pencil that is the perfect accompaniment to flesh-toned lipsticks; and Le Vernis in Intermezzo, an iridescent white that is the quintessential transitional nail polish from summer to fall.
