First, let me show you a picture of the upcoming very VERY limited edition Chanel palette. So limited, it is rumoured that only 1500 are made for sale worldwide. Goodness! Are we looking at just a handful arriving on our shores?<\/p>\n

Here it is. The Chanel Byzance Lumieres Byzantine palette (image source<\/a>).<\/p>\n

It looks like pieces of semi precious stones set in gold. Its artistic in that way. Its like a clunky piece of jewellery and fits well with the Byzantine look Chanel was going for. Not quite for me though. I don’t quite like how it looks. I like the look of the rest of the collection (the eyeshadow palette and blush – oh boy! the blush!) but not this one.<\/p>\n

I have no idea if its an eye palette, or a face palette. Odds are, its an eye palette. But really. Would anyone use this? Or just display it?<\/p>\n

It actually brings to mind another Chanel palette from the past that was also touted as a piece of art.<\/p>\n

Then\u00a0Chanel Lumiere D’Artifices metallic eyeshadow palette that was made to look like the sequins on a Chanel ball gown. Does anyone remember this from the mists of time? \ud83d\ude1b It was launched in 2006 and at that time, I commented that it sent shivers down my spine and raised goosebumps, just looking at it. I did actually check it out in real life at the time, and after the surface is worn down, its not too bad, but I don’t think I could get over how it looks in the pan.<\/p>\n

Its the same with the Lumieres Byzantine palette. Personally, I don’t like it. It doesn’t send shivers down my spine but it does raise my hackles \ud83d\ude1b But that’s just me. Don’t let me stop you getting it! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Chanel doesn’t do artistic palettes very often, unlike the other brands out there. But for some strange reason, every time they do, I end up having nothing very nice to say about them. I guess I’m just conservative and perhaps not very artistic \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n
