Tender! Charming! Poetic! Chanel's Spring 2025 Makeup Collection Is a Breath of Fresh Air

We might be smack-dab in the middle of winter, but Chanel is giving us a reason to look ahead to spring and everything that comes with it—including delicate flowers, light breezes, and fresh makeup looks. The ever-iconic brand just debuted its spring/summer 2025 makeup collection, and let me tell you it's a pure and utter delight to behold. Light, playful, and charming, its springy shades like peach, lilac, and mint can be mixed, matched, or worn singularly for a chic, monochromatic moment.
The collection contains 17 new shades of some of Chanel's best-selling makeup products. There are two pastel nail lacquers. There are four silky eye shadows. There are six tinted lip balms and four luxe eyeliner pencils. There's even a new, limited-edition palette that, in my opinion, encapsulates the spirit of spring.
To use the words of Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada, there's nothing "groundbreaking" about light, pastel colors for spring. However, there is something special about the chic and sophisticated way that Chanel uses them. Sure, the formulas are high-quality and effective (it is Chanel we're talking about, after all), but the shades are also playful without being immature and bright without being intimidating. In other words, they're exceptionally wearable.

The Chanel Spring/Summer 2025 Makeup Collection
This limited-edition makeup palette is multiuse, meaning it can be used as eye shadow, highlighter, or even blush if you're in a pinch. It contains four iridescent shades ranging from petal pink to golden bronze. I'm snagging one before it sells out.
Chanel's Rouge Coco Baume Shine is a hydrating, tinted lip balm that offers buildable color. The brand released six new shades as part of the Colormatch collection. The first is a sumptuous caramel-toned one, called Honey Bliss.
