CHANEL Jade Nail Collection

Chanel introduces Jade Nail Collection: Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of CHANEL Makeup, created the Jade Nail Collection with two limited edition nail enamels in sure-to-be-coveted colors “Jade” and “Jade Rose” for the Ready-to-Wear Autumn/Winter 2009-2010 runway show. These mineral-inspired shades transform the nails into genuine gems and recall the jade jewelry and the pink knit and pistachio tweed of the fashion collection.

“For the nails, Karl Lagerfeld wanted a green shade to evoke the jade notes of the collection. I worked with our laboratories to offer him a monochromatic palette of 10 green shades. We chose the color that most resembled the green tweed skirt suit from the collection,” explains Peter Philips.

The CHANEL Jade Nail Collection debuts on September 10th at the CHANEL Soho Boutique in New York City in celebration of Vogue’s Fashion Night Out.

Starting the 11th of September, The Jade Nail Collection will be sold for limited time exclusively at www.chanel.com , CHANEL Makeup Studios and CHANEL boutiques for $25.00.

In Marta’s Shower: Face Cleansers

Want to know what’s in Marta’s shower? So many products I love these days, so little time to blog, lol. But here is a sneak peak to my shower and to some of my favorite face cleansers these days. As you can tell it’s very challenging for me to take a shower lately, because I have so many decision to make as soon as I wake up. It goes like this: “Umm…which face cleanser should I use today?” lol.

CHANEL MOUSSE EXFOLIANTE PURETÉ Exfoliating Cleansing Foam Purity + Anti-Pollution: It’s very creamy, it exfoliates, and gentle. Like with any face cleansers, avoid the delicate eye area.

Philosophy Purity Made Simple:Very gentle and refreshing cleanser. One of the best creamy cleansers I’ve ever tried.

Kiehl’s Rare Earth Deep Pore Daily Cleanser:If you like that fresh clean feeling after you wash your face, then you would love this Kiehl’s cleanser. I’m hooked:)

The Zoe Report: Chanel Intermezzo Nail Polish

I totally admire Rachel Zoe. I know, another celebrity. But, I love her infectious passion for her work. It’s the way to live life, love what you do. Rachel is the quintessential example of that. A true inspiration!

I receive The Zoe Report though my email, and I must admit that I’m always very curios to find out what are Rachel’s latest style & fashion picks. Here is one: Chanel Intermezzo Nail Polish, $23. I love white as my nail polish. It’s a nice break from all the other dark colors, such as: red, black, purple. And it looks very clean, understated, yet very polished.

Marta’s look for less: Essie Nail Polish in Waltz

CHANEL Ultra Correction Lift

CHANEL introduces Ultra Correction Lift:  A lifted and toned appearance requires more than a boost of collagen and elastin. It also requires TENSIN, a critical protein, naturally abundant in young skin, that anchors and connects cells to the skin’s dermal network. CHANEL scientists discovered that the key to helping restore tensin to its youthful level is elemi PFA, an exclusive, powerful ingredient targeted to stimulate the production of this age-defying protein.

With Elemis PFA at the heart of the collection, new ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT naturally firms and lifts skin from within. Collagen and elastin synthesis is intensified, supporting and fortifying skin’s newly reconnected network. Suitable for all skin types, new ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT measurably enhances skin’s appearance as facial contours are redefined and skin achieves a visibly toned and revitalized look. The uncompromising quality of CHANEL turns research into results.

Coco Before Chanel is the story of Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel, who began her life as headstrong orphan, and through an extraordinary journey became the legendary couturier who embodied the modern woman and became a timeless symbol of success, freedom and style.

Coco Before Chanel is directed by Anne Fontaine (La Fille de Monaco/The Girl From Monaco) from a screenplay by Anne Fontaine and Camille Fontaine, with collaboration of Christopher Hampton (Dangerous Liaisons), loosely based on L’irrégulière (Chanel and Her World: Friends, Fashion, and Fame) by Edmonde Charles-Roux.

Get The Look: Sienna Miller at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe

Sienna Miller was wearing CHANEL Beauté makeup at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe, Thursday, August 6, Los Angeles, CA.

Here is how to get Sienna Miller’s makeup look at the U.S. premiere of G.I. Joe:

Makeup Artist Kate Lee: Beauty Inspiration: “Sienna was really keen to embrace the spirit of old Hollywood for the premiere of GI Joe at the Chinese Theatre. The dress was a glamorous YSL silk chiffon encrusted with beads in a kind of neutral colour. ”

Beauty Tip:”Adir Abergel and I wanted to create a look that would be classical but modern. It was Sienna’s idea to go with a strong lip. I kept the rest of the make up very neutral, gently sculpting the cheek bones with a mixture of Soleil Tan de CHANEL and CHANEL Powder Blush in Tempting Beige. The eyes were clean and simple to bring the attention to the lip. I used CHANEL Éclat Lumière in Beige Rosé all over the lid and then shaded in the sockets with CHANEL Soft Touch Eyeshadow in Sand. I spent quite a bit of time on the brows to lengthen them, and after lashings of Exceptionnel de CHANEL in Smoky-Noir, I added both individual and cut up strip lashes. The lips were a mixture of two CHANEL Rouge Allure shades, Fatale and Obscure, both launching this Fall.”

CHANEL Mousse Exfoliante Pureté

CHANEL introducing Mousse Exfoliante Pureté: With the debut of the Cleansers and Toners Collection, CHANEL PRÉCISION gave women a new means of de-polluting and protecting skin with purifying formulas perfectly calibrated for every woman’s skin type. Bringing together the science of nature and the innovation of PRÉCISION, CHANEL extends this landmark collection to address the particular needs of combination-to-oily skin.

At the heart of this high-performance, mousse-based formula: Tulip Tree Extract, a natural de-pollution agent known to effectively stop environmental aggressors before damage is done. This precious substance, secreted on the surface of the Tulip Tree’s leaves, traps pollutants that are then washed away by rainwater.
