Chanel Beauty is synonymous with the classics: red lipstick, nude nails, and pretty blush. But to usher in a fresh take on spring beauty trends, the luxury house is departing (or should I say diving?) from tradition with its Spring 2024 aquatic-inspired line.
Rather than have one makeup artist serve as creative director, the brand enlisted three—Valentina Li, Ammy Drammeh, and Cécile Paravina—to lead its Cometes Collective. These artists were charged with cultivating Chanel's era of experimentation while staying true to the brand's classic style. To do so, Li, who designed the first collection, infused it with a bold take on color.

For inspiration, Li turned to the colors of the ocean. "I remember the first time I saw rain when I was a child. I kept asking questions about the color of the water: why is the ocean blue and the river green? In doing so, I discovered that water and light are magical makers of color," she says in a press release. As such, the color palette of Li's collection reflects the luminosity of seashells, the glitter of sunlight on the ocean, the vibrant shades of coral, and the rich indigo of deep water.
Below, you'll find an array of coral-toned lipsticks, blushes, and nail polishes as well as the brand's just-launched eyeshadow singles and complexion palettes to summer-fy your makeup bag. Many of the new releases are already sold out, so shop fast—it's only a matter of time before they're all gone.

To know Rouge Coco Baume is to love Rouge Coco Baume. This best-selling tinted lip balm leaves lips feeling as soft as can be, thanks to its blend of hydrating fruit and olive oils. The new shade, Anemone, is in line with the peach fuzz beauty trend, a soft peachy beige shade with a touch of shimmer.
Now the weather is finally heating up, it's time to switch over to spring nail colors. This coral hue (which looks great on all skin tones) is a fun way to usher in the new season.
A statement-making lipstick is sometimes all you need to feel put together. Sea Star packs a punch of color: it's an ultra-bright red shade with a tinge of orange.
Even if you're not loud lipstick person, there's a new Rouge Allure Laque shade for you to try. Sea Shell is a nude-pink shade designed to work well on just about every skin tone.
One of the easiest ways to embrace 2024's makeup trends is to pick up this dual-toned blush. The coral shade is a brighter take on Peach Fuzz, Pantone's Color of the Year, but when combined with the brighter pink tones, you get a subtle peachy wash of color. You can also use this blush higher up on your cheekbones for a colored contoured effect.
While Anemone is a brighter, orange-toned shade, Coralline is a more subtle red shade that works for everyday wear. No matter what you're wearing, this lip balm shade works: it's not too bright and not too muted.

For the new season, Chanel reimagined its iconic Ombre Première eyeshadow with a new 3-in-1 formula in an array of summery and neutral tones. To nail the mermaid beauty trend, sweep this shimmery seafoam shade over your eyelids.
As one of 2024's top makeup trends, colored mascara will make waves in your summer beauty routine. With a coat or two of this lilac mascara, your eyes will pop a mile away. You can even use it on top of your go-to black mascara to make your lashes glow.
Not just brights and shimmers, Chanel's newest eyeshadows have plenty of neutral shades like this matte black. With its highly pigmented, longwear formula, it works as a buildable eyeshadow for your dream smokey eye or wet an angled brush and use as eyeliner.
Chanel just condensed your makeup bag with the release of this palette. Designed for medium skin tones, this compact includes a bronzer, a coral-toned blush, and a highlighter to make getting ready a breeze.
I couldn't resist not including my favorite shade of the Ombre Essentielle bunch, Rouge Cosmos. I bet this shimmery red eyeshadow would look stunning on any eye color, but I'm picking it up to make the green flecks in my hazel eyes stand out.
Monochromatic makeup is shaping up to be another big makeup trend of the year, so I'm also considering picking up this shade to complement the eyeshadow above. The extra pop of color is sure to be a warm welcome to my summer beauty looks.
In case you're not a fan of warm coral blush, Chanel still has you covered with this mauve-toned palette. Designed for deep skin tones, this compact has an all-year feel with a purple-toned blush and rosy highlighter. Reviews say the lighter colors double as eyeshadows too.
