This new Chanel Beauty creation from Lucia Pica, Chanel's Global Creative Makeup and Color Designer, introduces [timeless nail polish colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-west-chrome-collection), eyeliners, eye gels, mascaras, eyeshadows and lipsticks in [black and white schemes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/absolute-collection) that explore color in a way that many color cosmetic brands are not.
