It’s no secret that natural makeup is big this season, which is why we’re looking forward to Chanel’s upcoming collection, which is all about achieving a light sun-kissed glow.
When creating the aptly named Eclat et Transparence de Chanel range, which loosely translates to the shine and transparency of Chanel, the brand’s Global Creative Designer for Makeup and Colour Lucia Pica had a vision of creating an airy vision of beauty that blends just-warmed skin, bronzed by the sun’s first few golden rays, with soft, sheer, transparent colour. Milky pink, gentle aqua, gold and bronze are combined to create the perfect palette of dream-like summer hues.
Inspired by the light, sheer yet sensuality of shadows, the makeup collection aims to suggest rather than show, by playing with colours and light layers. “It’s really about how to transform that glamorous feeling of summer into something that is still striking,” explains Lucia, “but feels more transparent; as if it really becomes a part of the skin.”
You can check out the entire collection, which will hit our shores on 26th April, here.
