Nail Polish Obsession



These are the nail polishes that I have acquired just this month! This obsession has to stop pretty soon. I have always used Opi, Essie for nail polishes and they are pretty good I thought. Not until I tried a Chanel. I have to say its one of the best of the best! The color is very pigmented, and the application is amazing. Smooth and most of the time, one coat is sufficient. I have never seen any polish that can look as good with just one coat. I read somewhere that they just improved their formulation last year.

Lets start with the Chanel nail polishes.  The black pearl is one of those colors that they always have, its a classic and it is like no other. Bluish gray with some tint of green, like a black pearl. The Taboo is from the Fall 2013 collection, the color is fantastic, its a deep purple with some gold glitter. I dont think the pictures do the justice, maybe these blogs do better than me, here is one, and here is another.  The Tapage is from the Spring 2014 collection and its a very bright color, a cross between an orange and a red. Perfect for springtime.










I have also been reading from several blogs about the new gel top coats which is supposed to make your nails last longer. I wanted to try this so I got it as well.




Lets talk about the Dior Nail Polishes. The Destin is from the Winter 2013 collection and Perle Spring 2014. The brushes from the Dior nail polishes are pretty wide (more pics to come) and pretty much one stroke can do the job. Destin was a popular color, as well as Galaxie (Similar to taboo) but they were sold out already.  Pearle is a very light almost clear coat ,but the shimmer is pretty nice. I just wanted to try another color that is not so pigmented. I read on The beauty Look Book you can apply it on top of other nail polish colors as well.



Another set I acquired during the holidays is the Julep glitter gift set.



Dont they all look amazing?
