Within Lucia Pica’s vision for the collection, a statement smoky eye or a glossy, lustrous lip appears set against a fresh, luminous complexion, and the contemporary contrast between indulgent splendor and refined minimalism is gleefully indulged. “The woman I imagine using this collection is completely CHANEL,” reflects Lucia Pica. “She’s seeking timeless simplicity, but she also loves richness and glamour, modernity and grandeur.”
An exclusive range of ROUGE ALLURE limited-edition packaging and powders whose surface have been ornately engraved with a vintage CHANEL button, mirror that desire for abundance. “I wanted to express the idea of richness that particularly fits with the festive time of year — but a mastered and modern richness,” explains Lucia Pica. At once gleamingly contemporary and imbued with the house history, each of her products appears quintessentially CHANEL.
THE LIPS
RICH. LUXURIOUS. MODERN.
I wanted that sense of being bathed in colour.” Lucia Pica
In celebration of the Holiday Collection, the iconic ROUGE ALLURE is
revamped through the introduction of six luxurious, luminous shades
suspended within graphic, gold-edged limited-edition packaging. For a modern richness, each intensely saturated ROUGE COCO GLOSS can either be worn alone or layered atop lipstick to amplify its impact.
LUCIA'S TIP
A fresh complexion means that you can be bold in your adornment. A deep,
glossy lip is made entirely modern when paired with a natural, luminous
complexion.
THE FACE
LUMINOUS. GLEAMING. RADIANT.
“The highlighter brings light sculpting to the face with a soft shine.” Lucia Pica
A luminous backdrop of angelic skin sets the scene for holiday splendor; an elegant incandescence amplifies the depth of colour to come. A creation exclusive to LES ORNEMENTS DE CHANEL, ÉCLAT MAGNÉTIQUE DE CHANEL offers the perfect starting point for glamorous festivities, its blendable texture melting into the skin to seemingly illuminate from within. Embossed with the likeness of a vintage CHANEL button, its lustrous, pearlescent shine can be used to highlight the contours of the face for a gently sculpting, radiant effect.
LUCIA'S TIP
Using a brush to diffuse the powder, create an iridescent halo of light
around the eyes either before or after eyeshadow application for a fresh
approach to highlighting.
THE EYES
INDULGENT. OPULENT. SUMPTUOUS.
“The eye palette is sumptuous and rich, yet earthy and real.” Lucia Pica
A harmonious series of sumptuous shades, each eye product encapsulates the spirit of the season with a lustrous effect fit for festive indulgence. Decadent, silken shadows, with a creamy powder texture, exclusively etched with the form of a CHANEL button, LES 4 OMBRES and OMBRE PREMIÈRE can be blended or layered, diffused or defined. Fairer shades can envelop chocolate browns or gunmetal khakis in a “veil of light”: lightly pressing over the center of the lid with a soft peach, or antique gold, will offer a modern dimension to deeper hues. A rich, deeply pigmented khaki pencil, STYLO YEUX WATERPROOF can add elegant definition, or be blended outwards for dramatic effect. Through Lucia’s creations, a world of lavish possibilities awaits.
LUCIA'S TIP
As well as being worn alone, OMBRE PREMIÈRE Grandeur offers the perfect
base for other shadows, making their impact even more lush and luxurious,
or can be used as a highlighter and swept across small areas around
the eyes or cheeks.
THE NAILS
GLOSSY. LACQUERED. PRISTINE. “I expressed the idea of opulence by creating profound and
generous colours. A chestnut red and a black green,
as deep as the lacquer of Gabrielle’s Coromandels.” Lucia Pica
With long-lasting, high-shine shades that reflect the Holiday palette,
the dramatic pigmentation of LE VERNIS offers the perfect final touch to
the look of the season.
