Chanel’s Le Blanc collection is typically for the Asian market ,and the U.S. doesn’t always receive everything in the collection! The Le Blanc Collection is an easy, everyday French Girl Makeup Style that is perfect for easy everyday wear. The start of the Collection, The Reve de Chanel Illuminating Camelia de Chanel Powder, a limited edition illuminating powder, comes in a beige-rose shade. It is a very sheer, luminous shade that adds pure light for the skin. It doesn’t give any coverage. It is the ultimate Le Blanc product. The USA, refers to the collection as Reve de Chanel. The collection also includes The Chanel Les 4 Ombres Eyeshadow Quad in 384 Imaginaire. Also, specifically created to enhance the spring makeup looks of the 2022 Reve de Chanel, collection are two Limited Edition Stylo Lumiere Regard Top Coat Illuminateur highlighter pens. Finally, I purchased one of the Rouge Coco Flash lipstick shades to pull the collection together.
The collection’s packaging is signature black lacquer outer boxes, white writing, with a touch of gold embellishment. First, the eyeshadow quad comes in the black velvet dust bag. The Eyeshadow Quad Compact, also signature Chanel black laquer, has the signature double c logo entwined on the center of the lid. Inside underneath the lid is a full-sized mirror. On the other side from the mirror, are the four quad eyeshadow pans. Also included are two sponge applicators.
The Quad is a warm palette that has a peach color story. The top two shades are very pigmented. The bottom two shades are pretty sheer. This is indicative of a Le Blanc collection, which consists of light, everyday wear, colors. Also, the eyeshadows are not domed, like other Chanel Quads. Instead, they are flat. Usually, I don’t use the included applicators. However, they happen to be very helpful with the application of these shadows. So, if you purchase this palette, don”t throw the two applicators out! Using the sponges will give you more color payoff. Also, use a primer or a bit of concealer on your eyelids for optimal color.
The Stylo Lumiere Regard is a twist-bottom pen, and a built in black brush applicator. To get the color to come to the brush, twist the bottom of the pen, and when you start to feel tension, you’ll see the product begin to appear on the brush. These highlighting pens can be used as you would with the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Eclat pen.
Finally, the Rouge Coco Flash is a hydrating, gloss/balm hybrid formula, that hydrates, while giving your lips color and shine. The Rouge Coco Flash has a see-through plastic lid, so you can see through to the lipstick shade inside the case.

For more impact, wear the translucent shade on top of the peach shade on the bottom right, all over your eyelids.
Bottom Row Right and Left
Bottom Right, a bright peach shade, has a matte finish. This shade is more pigmented than the translucent shade. I like wearing the two shades together, the bright peach matte on the bottom, all over your eyelid, and the translucent shade on top. Or, you can use this peach matte shade as a transition shade.
Bottom Left, a cream shade, has a matte finish. Wear this cream peach shade as a transition shade. Mix this cream peach shade with the bright peach shade and wear these all over your eyelids.
Finally, these shades blend together perfectly.
