The Beauty of Chanel's Cruise 2025/2026 Show Was an "Ode to Cinematic Glamour"

We’re giving you the step-by-step breakdown so you can create the look for yourself.

Set against the dreamy backdrop of Lake Como, Chanel unveiled its Cruise 2025/2026 show — an ode to the glamour of Hollywood‘s past. Echoing the silver screen icons who once graced red carpets with elegance and poise, the collection evoked the sophistication of the fashion house but in screen siren form. As for the beauty, Chanel leaned into soft pinks and sun-warmed oranges, capturing the romance of an era long passed.

If you’d like to recreate the makeup, skincare and nails for yourself, here are the exact products used and the application process broken down below.

Start by prepping the skin with five drops of Chanel’s “Hydra Beauty” Micro Liquid Essence, gently pressing it into the cheeks, forehead and chin. Next, follow up with the “Hydra Beauty” Camellia Water Cream, smoothing it outward from the center of the face for a fresh, dewy finish. Before moving on to makeup, hydrate the lips with “Hydra Beauty” Micro Sérum Lèvres and lock it all in with a mist of “Hydra Beauty” Essence Mist, sprayed in a circular motion.

For a luminous base, apply “Les Beiges” Water-Fresh Complexion Touch with the 2-in-1 Foundation Brush, then spot-correct using “Le Correcteur de Chanel” and the brand’s Retractable Dual-Ended Concealer Brush. Next, set everything in place with “Les Beiges” Healthy Glow Sheer Powder and warm up the cheeks using “Les Beiges” Healthy Golden Glow Powder in either “Éclat du Soir” or “Soleil Couchant,” from the center of the cheeks to the temples.

Afterwards, define brows using the “Stylo Sourcils Haute Précision” Brow Pencil and the Dual-Ended Brow Brush. Then, bring light to the eyes with Les Beiges Healthy Glow Natural Eyeshadow Palette in “Golden.” Apply the rose gold highlighter across the lids and lower lash line, then layer the copper-orange shimmer in the center of the eyes for depth. For the last step, curl the lashes and coat them with “Le Volume de Chanel” Mascara in “10 Noir.”

Finally, finish the look with a soft wash of “Rouge Coco Flash” Blush in Sun Bliss on the lips. If you would like to go all out, the next step is a polished manicure using the “La Base Camélia” Base Coat and the “Le Vernis” Nail Polish in “111 Ballerina” and “Le Gel Coat” for lasting shine.
