Chance Three Moods Shimmering Gels

Here’s one of those indulgent beauty products we should try to treat ourselves to from time to time, if we can. Chanel launch this cute little trio of shimmering scented gels today, to, well, take a chance with!

Chose from Chance Eau Tendre, Chance Eau Fraiche and Chance Eau Vive, depending on your mood, and apply the lovely perfumed illuminating gel to brighten the skin and perfume the neck, decollete, inside of the wrists. Just apply with the fingertips and massage in.

Actually, Chanel suggest that you apply each differently – so, tap with the palm of your hand for Eau Tendre, massage with fingertips for Eau Fraiche, and rotating movements for Eau Vive.

I have to say I’m not overly familiar with these Chance versions. I used to wear the original Chance many moons ago. I had the whole collection – perfume, body lotion, shower gel and the cutest little Chanel EDT purse spray which I treated myself to in the most wonderful beauty hall in the world in Saks Fifth Avenue in New York.

So, if, like me, you’re not overly familiar with the fragrances, here’s a little more detail:

Chance Eau Tendre is a floral-fruity fragrance that blends the green and fruity grapefruit-quince accord with the softness of jasmine and the smoothness of white musks.

Chance Eau Fraiche is a floral-sparkling fragrance that combines the zesty freshness of citron, the softness of jasmine and the vibrant presence of the teak wood note.

Chance Eau Vive is a floral-zesty fragrance stirred by the vivifying notes of grapefruit and blood orange, releasing a wonderful wave of energy.

If you are a Chanel fan, then you will love these little bottles of shimmering scented gel.
