Tulipe Noire

Tulipe Noire, CHANEL’s “it” nailcolor for fall—a deep plum flecked with gold, is selling out quickly. Already, it’s not available at most online outlets and you’d be hard pressed to find one at your local counter. (That is, unless you live in a small town in the middle of the desert where people care as much about “it” nailcolor as they do about keeping their dental appointments.)
If you missed out on this fab color, fear not. Makeup Bag has an extra one for you (because, we… um, live in the desert).
Leave us a comment and tell us your favorite CHANEL beauty product and you just might win your very own bottle of Tulipe Noire.





So many to choose from! My all time favorite Chanel product is my Joues Contrast Blush in Turbulent. It gives me the perfect pop of color on my cheeks. I have to use it sparingly though, since it’s no longer available!

I love me my Inimitable mascara… Previously I was a Diorshow fan but Inimitable makes my lashes curlier and more feminime… this nail polish also looks lovely!

My favorite Chanel product is Inimitable mascara. It does it all for me! It makes me look like I have false eyelashes on, but not in that terribley annoyingly obvious sort of way. Plus, it curls and seperates each lash so I have no spider-lashy clumpiness. It make my lashes appear really long too, so what’s not to like? I reach for it everyday.

I love the Chanel Aqualumiere lipsticks: my favorite is Antigua, a beautiful complex berry-pink.

I’m in love with Chanel’s Shadowlights in Nova - its deliciously velvety and it goes easily from day to night :)!

My fav Chanel product would have to be my Hawaii Aqualumiere lipstick. Its my fav because its the only Chanel product I own! I got earlier this week and it was love at first kiss:) Perfect color for summer. Im on my way to becoming a Chanel addict!

My favorite Chanel product is the new Garden Party eyeshadow quad. I just love the green and pink. I guess I am an eyeshadow person. I get excited about new colors.

My favorite Chanel product is Purete Mat. Not only does it provide great shine control, the spf 15 is a great plus for summer days!

As it is very hot here, the product that comes to my mind is Stylo Yeux Waterproof. I have it in black (ébene) and I just love it. It stays in its place and the colour is extremely intense -I still have my eyes very well defined and the colour hasn’t moved and created annoying vampire-ish dark circles under my eyes. I simply love it!

To be honest, I have actually always been rather disappointed with Chanel’s products, so I’m hoping you will prove me wrong with this nailvarnish.

My most beloved Chanel product is Cristalle eau de parfum, the prettiest green floral that always makes me feel like I’m on vacation! I will never be without it.

I love Chanel make up! My favorite product is their glossimer in Sirop. I’m on my third tube! Love your blog and read it everyday. Keep up the good work!

My favorite is the limited edition metallic eye shadow palette from last fall. It creates a great smoky eye if you use it as a “top coat” to add depth and sparkle.

Chanel Glossimer in Pagoda. Best. Lipgloss. Ever. I am also coveting everything in their fall collection this year. *sigh*

My favorite Chanel product is from their skincare line. It’s called Rectifiance Intense Nuit. The retinols and soothing ingredients cleared up my constant breakouts and dry skin. Luckily for me, it’s also an anti-aging product so it helped soften the tiny expressions lines between my nose and mouth. Honorable mention goes to the discontinued Shadowlights in Vega, a beautiful shimmery taupe.

i’m still a sucker for vamp polish!
Comment by Laura — August 4, 2007 @ 10:25 am
Candide eyeshadow is probably my favorite Chanel product, just because of how utterly flattering it is on my brow bone. Plus, who can resist Black Satin or Vamp polishes? Chanel also makes GREAT skincare products, it’s just too bad my wallet can’t afford them. Sigh, Chanel.

I treasure my Irreelle blush in Secret (now discontinued, *sigh*), and am still searching for another blush that is equally beautiful and flattering. I’m also loving the new Iris glossimer, although I have yet to get my hands on a bottle of Chanel nail polish!

I’ve never bought or tested a Chanel makeup product before, but always wanted to try it. The nearest store that carries beaute is about 100 miles away, so I never seem to get there. lol

My favorite Chanel product - well, that’s a difficult choice, but I’ll have to go with their “Shanghai Red” ROUGE HYDRABASE CREME Lipstick. No other shade or formula is as perfect for bringing out my porcelain-pale skin and my green eyes (and I try them all).As for “Tulipe Noir,” just have to say:
Couldn’t wear the black. Couldn’t wear the white. Now, THIS gorgeous, classic shade - this I can wear, be a classic Chanel lady AND be right up to date in 2007! Thanks, Chanel, for “Tulipe Noire,” a nail color both flattering AND fashionable! Can’t wait!

Definitely my Chanel pressed powder. Even if I don’t put on any face makeup in the morning, a quick blotting of this on my t-zone makes me look natural and even-toned immediately. Plus, what’s better than checking out your makeup in a shiny black chanel compact?

Chanel No. 5 is my favourite Chanel beauty product. I love this scent, it’s a classic.
