3 ways to wear the new CHANEL Noirs Obscurs Makeup Collection

The new limited-edition Chanel Noirs Obscurs Collection could be considered avant-garde; it's definitely a bold makeup collection.  The colors are strong, but beautiful. So how to wear the Chanel Noirs Obscurs Collection whilst not looking overdone or goth? 

My advice is to not try to wear all the makeup in the collection at once.  Pick one feature to highlight--whether it's eyes or lips.  Play up that feature and maintain balance by keeping the rest of the makeup muted. Less can be more with these intense colors. 

Here are 3 ways to wear the new Chanel Noirs Obscurs Collection:

 

The Quatour Boutons de Chanel Quadra Eye Shadow in Les Folies Noir can be used in a variety of  ways.  Apply one of the deep eyeshadow colors on your lid for an intense, smokey look.  Blend well, then apply only a subtle highlighter under the browbone.  Add Inimitable Noir Obscur Mascara in Extreme Black to finish eyes. To balance out the look and keep the focus on the eyes, I would keep the rest of the face neutral and finish lips with the Aqualumiere Gloss in Furious.
