Chanel Magnificence Rouge Noir Assortment – Spring 2026

Chanel Magnificence Spring 2026 has arrived and appears to be promoting out quick! I ordered all the pieces 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 evaluate. The gathering is out now at Chanel.com and Nordstrom.

In case you’re nonetheless searching for something that’s bought out on-line at Chanel every product web page has a “Discover in Boutiques” choice hyperlink. 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 instrument to verify your native counters.

As a very long time Chanel magnificence lover I anticipated to like all the pieces on this assortment however I really feel there are some massive 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 utility. The 2 lighter colours apply nicely 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 a variety of mixing they didn’t mix nicely. I attempted this a number of methods since my pores and skin is on the dry aspect now and I couldn’t get this to work for my pores and skin kind even with further moisturizer and a hydrating basis beneath.

I haven’t learn different evaluations but however various you messaged me about this. Half of you adore it, the opposite half additionally stated you additionally had some utility challenges.

Swatched subsequent to Tendresse:

The colours are for positive lovely and excellent for a fairly Valentine’s Day theme. For me this can be a move. If the appliance isn’t 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) shocked me with the best way it flashes pink! I swatched these subsequent to some different shades. They do have an identical vibe to final yr’s assortment however they’re nonetheless completely different sufficient to justify. I believe these are value monitoring down!

Rouge Noir Mascara and Eyeliner

I really like a monochromatic coloration theme and I believe the Rouge Noir packaging is gorgeous! The Noir Attract Rouge Noir Mascara ($45 at Chanel) is a pleasant one however I believe the Quantity de Chanel Mascara is the superior formulation when it comes to Chanel mascaras. The burgundy tint of the Rouge Noir shade doesn’t actually present up on my lashes, it just about seems to be black.

The Stylo Yeux in Rouge Noir ($36 at Chanel) I obtained in my order may be a dud, however this one is also on the dry aspect, 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 probably the most excited for the Les Pinceux Rouge Noir Brush Set ($153 at Chanel) as I really like the equipment Chanel magnificence launches. It is a lovely set with brushes which can be nicely made. They do look extra machine lower than the total 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 seems to be like a brand new one and it is vitally VERY small. I do suppose it’s useable however a much bigger fluffier brush is far simpler to make use of for blush.

Spring Lip Colours

The lip colours on this launch are very daring and dramatic. They’re all exterior of my consolation zone however I needed to attempt 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 strong 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 coloration 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 utility. This shade can be not my shade, however given the cult standing of the Rouge Noir Le Vernis I needed to attempt it.

Baume Essentiel

There’s a brand new Baume Essentiel in Cute ($50 at Chanel and Nordstrom). It’s a phenomenal lavender pink coloration however pulls very sheer. I swatched it subsequent to Lilas from just a few years in the past. Cute is clearly much more pink, however because it’s so sheer it doesn’t actually give a lot coloration payoff on the pores and skin. I want they’d have made this right into a lip gloss as a result of the colour is so lovely! Just 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 lovely lotions however don’t actually really feel like a spring coloration story and except for 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 as a result of truth the colour story isn’t actually me since I are inclined to put on hotter and brighter shades. The 2 eyeshadow singles have been the one objects I used to be actually impressed with formulation and color-wise, however I do know lots of you have been enthusiastic about this launch so if you happen to adore it, please don’t let my evaluate damage 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!
