Chanel Singuliere nail polish review

chanel singuliere nail polish winter 2015

Pictured: Chanel Singuliere nail polish for winter 2016.

Chanel Singuliere nail polish is a winter 2016 release from Chanel. Although it is considered a winter hue, the purplish-pink red is perfect as a light red alternative to Vamp nail polish for the holiday season.

Singuliere by Chanel is a cream nail polish which offers a slightly purplish-pink tinge to an otherwise slightly medium-dark red. If Chanel Vamp is too dark for you this winter or holiday season, then Chanel Singuliere nail polish is the hue for you!

I tested out Chanel Singuliere nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. The nail polish is strong, possibly due to this fabulous top coat, and lasted a full week before my nails grew, and I needed to take it off. Love that!

Chanel Singuliere nail polish is a great nail colour to have in one’s nail polish wardrobe. It is a classic red hue which can easily be worn during any season. It is ideal if you want a red polish which is not too bright. The purplish-pink undertones make this a feminine, yet sophisticated red, which is easy to wear.

If you have a nail polish fan on your holiday gift list, this is the perfect nail polish to give. Chanel Singuliere nail polish is a classic red with a twist, which means your nail polish fan probably doesn’t have this hue in her collection. Plus, since it is a classic color, it is safe to say she will love it 🙂

Chanel Singuliere nail polish is a limited edition nail polish hue for the winter season. The nail polish can be found online here, and here.

Tom Ford Blackout nail polish review

Tom Ford Blackout is a fabulous new nail polish color from Tom Ford for the winter, and holiday season. This edgy hue is not your average, flat black color! Noooooo, Tom Ford upped the black nail polish game by adding sparkles, and dimension to Blackout. The result is fabulous!

Tom Ford Blackout nail polish is a cream polish, littered with millions of dazzling sparkles. The sparkles are a cool, subtle silver, and they add dimension to the black hue. This makes Blackout a must-have in anyone’s nail polish wardrobe. After all, black is a edgy yet neutral version of classic nail polish.

Throughout the years, black nail polish has drifted in and out of fashion. Although it has it’s popular moments, black nail polish is a classic color which is considered both neutral, and cutting-edge. This makes it an easy shade to wear with any color palette, in any season.

Blackout by Tom Ford is an excellent black nail polish to own. I have noticed Tom Ford nail polish has a strong shelf life. His polish maintains it’s texture, color, and composition while sitting on a shelf, for an extended period of time. One of my pet peeves is when a nail polish has been sitting on a shelf for six months, and it goes bad! Tom Ford does not. It maintains a long life, which is nothing short of fabulous!

I tested out Tom Ford Blackout nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one coat of top coat. The polish applied evenly, without streaking. It also lasted  a full week without chipping. Love that!

I have fallen in love with Tom Ford Blackout nail polish, and I look forward to wearing it throughout the winter 2016, and holiday 2015 seasons!

Tom Ford Blackout nail polish can be found online here.
