Chanel Magnificence Spring 2026 has arrived and appears to be promoting out quick! I ordered all the things sight unseen as quickly because it launched on-line. I shared swatches right here and after testing these for the previous week I lastly have my assessment. The gathering is out now at Chanel.com and Nordstrom.

I clicked and it brings up an inventory of the Chanel magnificence boutiques which have issues in inventory. Nordstrom additionally has the shop locator per product web page, so I like to recommend utilizing the device to examine your native counters.
As a very long time Chanel magnificence lover I anticipated to like all the things on this assortment however I really feel there are some huge misses.
Rouge Noir Confidence Eyeshadow and Blush Palette
I had the very best hopes for the Rouge Noir Confidence Eyeshadow and Blush Palette ($95, Chanel and Nordstrom) however have blended emotions primarily based on software. The 2 lighter colours apply properly with a clean fairly end, however they disappeared from my pores and skin virtually the second I utilized them. The 2 darker shades go on the pores and skin very patchy and inconsistently. Even with quite a lot of mixing they didn’t mix properly. I attempted this a number of methods since my pores and skin is on the dry facet now and I couldn’t get this to work for my pores and skin sort even with further moisturizer and a hydrating basis beneath.
I haven’t learn different opinions but however plenty of you messaged me about this. Half of you adore it, the opposite half additionally mentioned you additionally had some software challenges.
Swatched subsequent to Tendresse:
The colours are for certain stunning and ideal for a reasonably Valentine’s Day theme. For me this can be a go. If the appliance shouldn’t be completely clean or simple to mix, I’m going to say this can be a miss.
Ombre Essentielle
There are two new Ombre Essentielle Eyeshadow Singles ($42 every, Chanel and Nordstrom) and for me these are the stand outs. I anticipated to like Brun Rose (a coppery rose shimmer) extra however Gris Rose (a lavender, gray, pink virtually multi-chrome shimmer) stunned me with the best way it flashes pink! I swatched these subsequent to a couple different shades. They do have the same vibe to final yr’s assortment however they’re nonetheless completely different sufficient to justify. I feel these are value monitoring down!
Rouge Noir Mascara and Eyeliner
I like a monochromatic shade theme and I feel the Rouge Noir packaging is gorgeous! The Noir Attract Rouge Noir Mascara ($45 at Chanel) is a pleasant one however I feel the Quantity de Chanel Mascara is the superior components by way of Chanel mascaras. The burgundy tint of the Rouge Noir shade doesn’t actually present up on my lashes, it just about appears black.
The Stylo Yeux in Rouge Noir ($36 at Chanel) I acquired in my order may be a dud, however this one is also on the dry facet, applies patchy on the arm and tugs the eyes to the purpose that it’s painful to use.
Les Pinceux Rouge Noir Brush Set
I used to be essentially the most excited for the Les Pinceux Rouge Noir Brush Set ($153 at Chanel) as I like the equipment Chanel magnificence launches. This can be a stunning set with brushes which can be properly made. They do look extra machine minimize than the complete sizes however they’re very clean and I actually love them. There are two eyeshadow brushes which I really already personal within the full sizes. The cheek brush appears like a brand new one and it is vitally VERY small. I do assume it’s useable however an even bigger fluffier brush is way simpler to make use of for blush.
Spring Lip Colours
The lip colours on this launch are very daring and dramatic. They’re all outdoors of my consolation zone however I wished to strive one thing new. Formulation are 10/10 for the Rouge Attract Velvet ($53 at Chanel and Nordstrom). I picked up a mauve shade Irreverente and a daring fuschia berry Effrontee. Sadly I really feel each are too cool toned for my pores and skin tone however the formulation are a stable A+ as these are among the greatest velvet lipsticks I’ve tried.
The Rouge Attract Laque in Rouge Noir ($53 at Chanel) is a really darkish shade and requires some layering for a clean end. Because it’s very contrasted with my pure lip tone, one coat leads to a really patchy uneven end. Two coats will even it out to a clean software. This shade can also be not my shade, however given the cult standing of the Rouge Noir Le Vernis I wished to strive it.
Baume Essentiel
There’s a brand new Baume Essentiel in Cute ($50 at Chanel and Nordstrom). It’s a phenomenal lavender pink shade however pulls very sheer. I swatched it subsequent to Lilas from a number of years in the past. Cute is clearly much more pink, however because it’s so sheer it doesn’t actually give a lot shade payoff on the pores and skin. I want they might have made this right into a lip gloss as a result of the colour is so stunning! Much like all the opposite earlier Baume Essentiels, that is balmy, dewy and doesn’t dry down.
New Le Vernis Shades
Final we take a look on the three new Le Vernis ($34 at Nordstrom) shades. Performer is a brilliant raspberry pink, Moderniste is a deep cool gray and Rouge Noir is a darkish burgundy. I swatched these all with two coats. They’re stunning lotions however don’t actually really feel like a spring shade story and except Rouge Noir, I don’t actually see myself carrying these colours.
That wraps up my Chanel Spring Magnificence haul. General principally misses for me. Primarily because of the truth the colour story isn’t actually me since I are inclined to put on hotter and brighter shades. The 2 eyeshadow singles had been the one gadgets I used to be actually impressed with components and color-wise, however I do know a lot of you had been enthusiastic about this launch so when you adore it, please don’t let my assessment destroy it for you!
On-line now at Chanel.com and Nordstrom. In case you tried something from this launch I’m curious to listen to your ideas!
