Chanel should sponsor this video. 🖤 I don’t know why they can’t add a bit if this information to their website. It’s so hard to shade match in general, let alone since they don’t have much of a brick & mortar presence where we can go in and get shade matched. I’ve been wanting to try their potted concealer, but haven’t been able to bring myself to guess at the shade for that price.
I think so too but I’m biased! Haha but I’m glad that you agree. Today’s video is a lot of information but I’m glad it was helpful. I know that it’s a confusing topic so I know it was needed.
This was so helpful!!! Thank you! Could you do a video on Chanel concealers? I don’t know what concealer to use with the foundation. Should I go one up from the foundation shade?
Excellent information. Love the lipstick too. I was colour matched at the Chanel counter as B10 but it’s too yellow. I might go back and check if there is a BO or BR in my colour. Many thanks for your information. Always informative.
Very informative video! 🙂 You should do one for concealer because it’s very confusing and many people tend to go with a wrong shade. I am B20 in foundation and recently I bought the Sublimage concealer. I was sure that 20 is the wright shade but the lady from the Chanel counter recommended 32. She said 20 is ok but because I have a darkness under eyes 32 is better because acting like a corrector and concealer and I have a better coverage. I bought 32 and it’s perfect for the place where I have dark circles but if if I want to cover all under eye area is too dark. Now I am thinking to buy 20 as well. 🤔 Thanks for sharing!💕
You made a very good point in that I think the majority of people would swipe too much when testing for colours, I myself have learned that the hard way in the past. When I’m trying them with my husband, I ask him and he will say things like “I don’t know, I can’t see anything” which is more helpful than he realises 😂❤
You are an inspiration for all of us Dear Allison. I love your content as I love Chanel and Dior! Keep it up and more power! Sending hugs and kisses from Sydney Australia.❤
Hi Allison, thanks a lot for this interesting video! I really love when you explain so well the Chanel products, this help us a lot when it’s time to buy. ❤️
One of my absolute favorite Chanel experts🌹 Such a great breakdowns in shade range. Thank you for that Alli, as I have yet to find a shade or finish I really like! Could you do a finish breakdown for each foundation as well? I have a wonderful Chanel associate I love, but we meet via phone during covid, and I never got to discuss these things with her. While I could absolutely find out, I think another follow up would be greatly appreciated to luxury beauty lovers worldwide 🫶 I’ve ALWAYS appreciated you doing MORE than just review products.

❤ Very informative Ali. Luckily through trial and error I've worked out my skintone and undertone. Chanel's B10 is perfect for me. I've just dusted off Les beiges waterfresh tint in light. For the summer, that's a hair too light for me, so I'll pick up medium light next time I'm in our nearest big town. A nice light summer make up tutorial sounds just the job. Thank you.
Celebrating just completing my coursework by catching up on watching your vids today. A notification for one of your vids popped up on my phone during a works training session recently and I was so tempted to have a sneaky look- I'm sure the rest of the class would have enjoyed it! Loving your lipstick colour today ❤🥰
Allison, you gave the best advice on matching I've heard! Especially for us ladies whose face is lighter than our neck and bodies! Beauty counter ladies always want to match my neck only and the overall foundation is always too dark. Bronzing it up is the much better advice! And yes, thank you Chanel for addressing olive toned beauties too! Thank you for explaining the Chanel ranges so thoroughly! ❤️
Oh my pleasure! I know how frustrating it can be when there’s a colour different between face and neck so I wanted to share how I would shade match in that scenario.
Thank you for explaining. I am new to Chanel make up, and I honestly get confused with their shade range codes. I didn’t know which one to pick and i like to purchased online which makes it more harder to choose. Now i know. Thank you again
Hi! Is the original VitaLumiere foundation still available in Canada? Or perhaps the Chanel Canada site? It looks like it is but I’m in US and browser switches me to US site. That would be amazing if I could somehow get it from Canada 🙏🏻
Is me again. I never buy foundation unless they give me a small sample to take home. I am a painter and that though me a lot and undertones. In Chanel I am a B R 12. In other brand with different names but the same colors. At this point I can probably buy on line and get the correct shade. I never tan. So don’t even try anymore. Thanks for the tips and info. Have a great week. 😊❤
❤ 💄❤ Thank you for such a wonderfully easy to understand video Alison. I agree with the lady above that Chanel should sponsor you. The best description of how to choose and match foundations ever! Xx
This is a great explanation of skin shade vs neutral, warm, olive or cool undertones. Undertone is the hardest thing to get straight. I’ve never been tested at the Chanel counter, but I’ve concluded I’m fair skinned with primarily neutral undertones. I have green and blue veins, so it didn’t require rocket science! I just love your channel Alli! ❤❤❤
Merci Allison j'apprécie beaucoup vos vidéos, explicatives. Je voudrais savoir si vous avez connu la teinte "brun exacte" dans les fonds de teint Chanel. Je recherche sans succès une teinte approchante et hélas je ne trouve pas. Pouvez vous me donner un conseil??? merci de tout coeur!❤❤❤
@@AllisonChaseMerci de ta promptitude. J'ai 64 ans et j'achetais ce fond de teint dans les années 1996. Aujourd'hui les "tan" tirent souvent sur l'orange, celui ci avait la particularité d'être comme son nom l'indique,d'être exactement brun. Je suis tunisienne!!!! Je te remercie chaleureusement, j'adore tes vidéos, et tes goûts personnels. Bravo, magnifique!
@@nawelkrifa enchantée! Moi je suis moitié marocaine 💖 je comprends de que tu dis parce que tout les bronzer de Chanel maintenant on un teint plus jaune et chaud. Moi j’aime trop le bronzer Tom Ford nommé « Terra », c’est un de mes préférés.
I love Chanel foundation, but I get frustrated with selecting the correct shade. It isn’t that I cannot figure out which I am (BR 22), but it is because it is only available in a couple of formulations. I wonder why? I’ve tried others more readily available, but BR 20 looks muddy and BR12 is too light. I like BR 12 for concealer,but go with BR02 because my under eye circles are very dark, plus I have bags (ugh, turning the big 6-0 next year). What’s a girl to do to get the next best shade when the correct shade is unavailable? I want to use the Les Beiges Water Fresh Tint for summer, but cannot get the shade right. Thanks for the great video and information. Love your look, especially the happy red lipstick❤💄💋
It is annoying when the same shades are not consistently available across the foundations, I don't know why they do that. For the Water Fresh Tint, they tend to all have a neutral undertone, nothing cool like the shades you mentioned. ❤❤❤
Very informative video Alli. I go to stores, they instantly pick me BD shades. I hated the finish, until I tried B. They look so natural on me, I see only my skin. All the years I wasted wearing wrong shades 🤦🏽♀️ Thanks for explaining the shades and ranges!
Excellent video. I feel I have a basic understanding of what to look for in foundation. Tomorrow I will try the ones I have. A Chanel summer look sounds exciting. Once again, thank you. ❤
I would love to purchase Chanel No1 foundation as I'm fifty and looking for something with less coverage these days. I'm a neutral olive and suspect this means I'm not going to find my match. It's frustrating because No.1 sounds like such a lovely foundation too and just what I'm after.🐸❤
Thank you for clarifying the different undertones! It can be very confusing especially when looking on the chanel website! I'm neutral. you look amazing as always ❤
Thank you for explaining the Chanel foundation shades, as well as shade matching generally. I was originally matched in a Chanel boutique and the match I was given has worked well for me over many years and various Chanel foundations. ❤
I’m a light warm olive and there aren’t many brands that have lighter olives. I used to be annoyed, but then I learned to make my own shade with a drop of green shade adjuster in a warm foundation. Now I don’t sweat shade matching! It would be nice not to have to do that, though. This was a very thorough and great explanation on how to shade match!! 💕
I have light medium rosey olive. Always blending a variety of colors to make them work. I went years without knowing I was olive. I use to joke that my skin at its lightest I green. It would be fun to go to a counter with you. ❤
I find that Chanel's neutral B undertone leans rather yellow/warm in me. I have a neutral undertone but have better foundation matches in some other brands, ie Prada L15 is perfect for me. A lot of brands tend to lean warm with their foundations even though they're labelled as neutral. I actually think it's hard to find a true neutral but some brands are getting better and some newer brands are surpassing the older brands with their shade/ undertone ranges. ❤
Oh that is so true. One brand's version of neutral can actually be quite warm on some. That is the frustrating but very real world of trying to find the right foundation match.

@@karlarentz7694makes sense ❤ many of us are in between shades.
I agree!!!
I wish that the lightest chanel foundations didn’t pull so orange on me! Pale girl problems LOL ❤
#palegirlproblems ❤
Finally olive under tone! 🙌 I’m pale but with olive skin tone it’s so different to find good match for me. 🐸
So true! They added a few olives shades but hopefully more will come with time.
This was so helpful!!! Thank you! Could you do a video on Chanel concealers? I don’t know what concealer to use with the foundation. Should I go one up from the foundation shade?
Oh that's a really good idea 💜
The shade range you described is perfect. In the Summer, I wear Les Beige healthy glow, BR12, and in winter B10.
Yay! ☺️☺️
Allison, great video showing the various Chanel shades. I love the photos with the models & shades. Very helpful video!! Thank you! 😊❤️
Oh yay! I’m so glad. I figured showing the models was the only clear way to do it 😂
Excellent information. Love the lipstick too. I was colour matched at the Chanel counter as B10 but it’s too yellow. I might go back and check if there is a BO or BR in my colour. Many thanks for your information. Always informative.

Oh that's a good idea to talk about concealers in a video ❤ I also went with 32 because it's more of a corrector and on me 20 looked too grey.
Great advice. Can you explain which chanel primers /base go best with chanel foundations please. 🥰
Great idea ❤
You made a very good point in that I think the majority of people would swipe too much when testing for colours, I myself have learned that the hard way in the past.
When I’m trying them with my husband, I ask him and he will say things like “I don’t know, I can’t see anything” which is more helpful than he realises 😂❤
That is the perfect response that you want! LOL If he can't see it, then it's perfect.
Amazing explanation, thank you! I’m olive, but I feel in summer I go more for the golden undertone. Does that sound about right? ❤
Yes, I think so ❤
