Above are two looks created by Chanel which were from the Chanel youtube channel. Top look is a heavier look with blue  liner smudged out, black mascara and the lipstick shipshape which is the red/orange shade. The make-up tutorial below is more of a natural look, covering the lids in a lilac eyeshadow, lining it ever so slightly with a purple liner and applying a purple mascara then filling in the lips lightly with a pink lipstick.

The image at the top of the page is the advertisement by Chanel for the Spring 2016 collection however they haven't actually made a full advertisement this year for the collection like the previous years which included a model with the make-up on and the Chanel logo with the products and collection name as this year it had just been the image. The collection contains some light colours in the eyeshadow palette however also  lots of bright colours for the lips and the liners. This years image for the collection is very bright and bold and along with the image was a short film advertising the collection which had a mix of blue, purple, orange, pink etc. The collection can be used to create various of looks subtle and natural, bold and evening looks all suited for spring/summer. For the Chanel spring/summer 2016 runway the make-up was very simple with flawless skin, rose lips, blue blended round the eyes to create a mask and silver near the eyes. The editorial shoot by Chanel for this year isn't as bright as the make-up advertisement and the face is kept flawless, the lips are nude and the eyes have thick black pencil liner around them for a more dramatic look.

Chanel's new global creative makeup and colour designer

'With her singular beauty vision, the makeup artist Lucia Pica is bringing a cool new attitude to Chanel.'

The Italian makeup artist has been named Chanel's new global creative makeup and color designer, a new position that entails developing products in conjunction with the makeup studio in Paris. It's not Pica's first time working with Chanel: she created the looks for its most recent Rouge Allure, fall and holiday campaigns. And while those hit the more classic end of the beauty spectrum, her bolder, more graphic work for i-D and House of Holland has us excited to see what else she's capable of.
Bold pops of color are her thing, and Pica—who will be responsible for conceptualizing and developing Chanel’s cosmetics—represents something of a brave move for the French luxury house. She thinks nothing of applying glossy acid orange to lips, dusting lids in canary yellow ombréd-out to sooty black, or artistically painting a single stroke of Wite-Out white just below brows with the style of an Abstract Expressionist. But that’s not all she can do; Pica can just as skillfully turn her hand to a natural no-makeup makeup look. It’s a versatility honed on set with photographers Mario Testino, Mikael Jansson, Alasdair McLellan, and Willy Vanderperre, and backstage at shows like Roksanda and Peter Pilotto. She’s also behind Chanel’s beauty campaigns, making up the faces of Keira Knightley and the model Sigrid Agren.

“Coco Chanel was such a punk in the way that she approached style and feminism,” Pica continues. “She gave power to women, made it about how we wanted to look and not about dressing to please others. She pioneered that, and it couldn’t have been easy.” The heavy-fringed brunette pauses before adding, “Yes—I’m reading a lot of her biographies. . . . ”

Though Pica’s first full collection for Chanel won’t launch until late 2016, she is already clear on one thing: “I want the lineup to be modern and very straightforward. I want it to be super now, precise, and strong.” In preparation, she has been spending her time creating mood boards, gathering visuals that inspire her. Her references are broad: Art Deco postcards, images of Brutalist architecture, a snap of an edgy young girl spotted in an L.A. nightclub, a series of Polaroids of single-stem flowers pulled from the vast congratulatory bouquets she received when news broke of her appointment, and a handwritten note from an ex-boyfriend. When we duck into the florist Grace & Thorn on Hackney Road, a spriggy purple shamrock—otherwise known as a love plant—catches her eye. “Everything translates to a palette or a lipstick,” she says. “Whatever I look at, I see makeup.”

SPRING/SUMMER 2016 READY-TO-WEAR

Chanel

AIR travel has been a big topic of conversation in the fashion world of late. It seems a week hardly passes without some brand somewhere staging a megawatt show in a megawatt location. Fashion has become a traveling circus, if you will, and Chanel alone is famous for its global destinations, from Moscow to Seoul to Salzburg to Dallas; the house has presented a show in all of them. This year perhaps more than any other, editors and buyers have really clocked up the air miles, and so the idea of heading to an airport – again – as the show invitation indicates, might not be so appealing. But Chanel’s airport is the exception.

And so to Aeroport Paris Cambon, Karl Lagerfeld’s idea of how air travel should be: complete with airline lounges, Chanel branded luggage trollies, smiling staff stationed behind check-in desks, strapping luggage handlers, and signage directing models to gates (No. 5… naturally), Paris’ Grand Palais had been transformed into an airy, brightly-lit fully fledged airport, and pretty fancy it was too. Nothing like the shenanigans recently witnessed here, where bosses of Air France were mobbed and left shirtless. This was an altogether first class affair.

With no hurried travellers (although the information screen did announce a couple of delays) one by one models emerged, some wheeling along luggage, and occasionally stopping by check-in to collect travel documents like they had all the time in the world. Classic tweedy skirt suits, some with pencil skirts and dropped shoulder jackets, others with cropped three-quarter sleeve boucle jackets recalled a more glamorous time of air travel; they were the sort of ensembles one might put on in the hope of getting an upgrade, while a younger sportier gang donned track pants or knitted skirts and sweater combos - just the ticket for a comfortable long haul. Topped with baseball caps turned backwards and mirrored aviators to shield their faces, they called to mind the all too familiar pap shot of the hottest, newest celebrity as she emerges from a flight to the intrusion of flashbulbs.

There was lots of layering here: full skirts were fastened over trousers, sweaters were tied around waists and elsewhere knotted around the shoulders, almost as though the girls got stung at check in with excess baggage and instead of paying the fee, decided to pull out pieces and throw them on instead all in an effort to aid weight restrictions. The theme of air travel carried through, right down to the soles of shoes, where flat form sandals were lit up depicting the lights on a runway. Come fly with Chanel? Yes please.

Chanel has a super mix up of colours this year with the collection containing many looks made up of a variety of colour schemes. The most popular seems to be the blue, white and red mix which is thoroughly throughout the collection. For S/S 16 Chanel create the usual tweed suit for women with the uses of the collections colour and a mix of tweed skirts, jackets and hats for the summer. Other looks a jumpers and mini skirts, flared skirts layer over trousers, tops and jackets with the look accessorized with large sunglasses, layers of silver chained necklaces and pearls, silver bracelets, headbands, caps, clutches and handbags with the mixture of shoes being sandals or silver and clear wedged heels. The hair was either loosely down or in a middle parting with pig tails at the back held together with a silver clasp between them.
