Chanel Nouvelle Vague

My Chanel showed up today so I did a full manicure with this one after swatching the Havana Nights. And let me just say, this polish is ah-mazing! Here's a picture...not the greatest lighting since it's raining out, but I wanted to post this. I'll update tomorrow once I get some better lighting, hopefully the sun will come out!



I understand now why everyone raves about Chanel nail polish. The consistency was perfect. Great in two coats! The color is fabulous! Dry time is great. This is more about Chanel in general but I like the bottle and the brush size. Easy to control and it goes on great. The shimmer is so subtle inside rigt now but I'm pretty sure it's going to pop in the sun tomorrow.

Word in the nail polish community is that this color is similar to China Glaze's For Audrey. The colors are definitely similar, but For Audrey doesn't have the shimmer. And the finish is a little bit different. For Audrey is more of a creme and Nouvelle Vague is shinier. I absolutely love it though :) So beautiful and I completely understand why it sold out as quick as it did. Grab it off eBay if you still can!!
