Oh, don't look so grumpy, Coco. I'm sure Nylon's secret formulas will only be used in the direst of situations:

A) Sometimes a girl can't wait for the latest runway shades to hit the shelves ORB) Dead broke! (and saving for that pricey Chanel bag anyway).

Here are five recipes for five different Chanel shades, courtesy of Nylon. The first two have already hit the shelves, and the last three will be available in stores soon.
