One of the big color trends for summer 2013 is neon. So it is no wonder that Chanel, the design house always on the forefront of fashion, would create a beautiful, neon orange hue for the upcoming hot weather season!

Neon orange. Now is this a color most people would seek out? Probably not; that is, not until Chanel Lilis nail polish came out for summer 2013. Leave it to Chanel to invent the perfect shade of neon orange! Lilis is a sophisticated neon orange hue which has just right amount of oomph without being too bright. Chanel Lilis offers a warm orange hue which has slight pink undertones. The pink undertones allow Chanel Lilis nail polish to work with colors such as blue and green which normally clash with a true orange shade.

Chanel Lilis nail polish applies smoothly and evenly in two coats. The color works well with summer 2013’s bright color palette as well neon hues. Despite being a neon color, Chanel Lilis also works well with summer 2013’s vivid pastel color palette; perhaps due to the slight pink undertones.
