Christian Louboutin Scarabee Voilet Blue nail polish review

Christian Louboutin’s new Scarabee nail polish collection features three new colors, including Violet Blue,  which are perfect for summer. Christian Louboutin took his inspiration for this collection from the scarab beetle from Egyptian iconography. The colors reflect in the sun, and look like jewels in the evening. Love that!

Voilet Blue from Christian Louboutin’s Scarabee collection offers an exotic bluish-green hue with warm, golden undertones. The undertones reflect in the sun, and offer a golden-blue sheen which is unique, and ideal for a warm summer day. Love that!

I tested out Christian Louboutin Voilet Blue nail polish from the Scarabee collection with two coats of color, one base coat, and no top coat. The nail polish was very strong and lasted seven days before chipping. Now that I have a few Christian Louboutin nail polish bottles in my collection, I have become accustomed to the long wand applicator brush. Although it is not the easiest nail polish brush to work with, it does a great job applying an even coat of nail polish without creating a mess. Love that!

I am looking forward to testing out another color from Christian Louboutin’s Scarabee nail polish collection. The nail polish is limited edition, and with these fabulous colors, it will sell out fast! I have noticed Christian Louboutin’s nail polish has a good shelf life, and it can go months without being used and still be in perfect condition. This is key when in investing in designer nail polish. I feel good spending money on Christian Louboutin nail polish because I know it is long lasting on my nails, and on my shelf! 

Now, I feel like I need a Cleopatra inspired ensemble to match my Christian Louboutin Scarabee Voilet Blue nail polish. After all, Ra has been blessing us with sun, so why not dress accordingly to celebrate! I might have to start with these shoes, and go from there 😉

LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP review

lavanilla coconut fragrance summer perfume lavanilla coconut vanilla review

Two of my favorite fragrance notes of all time are vanilla and coconut. I love vanilla in fragrance during all four seasons of the year. I love the sweet scent, and the warm, cozy vibe vanilla gives off. Another favorite note of mine is coconut. I love coconut during the summer. I associate coconut with an exotic beach, relaxation, pool parties; and everything fabulous about the summer season. This is why I HAD to get my hands on LaVanila Vanilla Coconut eau de parfum.

LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP is a dream come true. This sweet scent is ideal for summer. Not only does it offer the warm fragrance of cozy vanilla, it has the coconut scent which is ubiquitous with summer. Love that!

LaVanila fragrances are simple scents. They offer a vanilla heart mixed with one other dominant note. Vanilla Coconut is no different. The notes LaVanila combined to create Vanilla Coconut are:

Notes: Creamy Coconut, Tahitian Tiare Flower, Madagascar Vanilla.

This combination creates a long lasting, vanilla-coconut combination which is easy to wear on a daily basis during the hot summer months. Perfection!

There are many reasons, besides a fabulous scent, to love LaVanila. They happen to create healthy fragrances which infuse organic sugar cane alcohol, botanicals, and antioxidants. Since fragrance is absorbed into the skin, this is huge! After all, who wants strange chemicals getting absorbed into your skin! Ew!

I have found myself wearing LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP almost everyday! It is perfect for hot weather, and all of the summer activities which go along with it! I definitely want to test out more from LaVanila.

I rate LaVanila Vanilla Coconut edp five out of five stars!

Chanel Lovely Beige nail polish is a beige color from Chanel’s late summer 2015 collection, “Les Beiges.” This medium beige hue is an instant classic which can be worn as a neutral polish during any season.

This medium beige hue is easy to wear, and plays well with summer 2015’s color palette. In fact, due to the neutral nature of Lovely Beige by Chanel, this nail polish can easily transition into the fall season. If you prefer neutral nails, Lovely Beige by Chanel can be a go-to neutral nail polish during all four seasons. Love that!

I tested out Chanel Lovely Beige nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and no top coat. The nail polish lasted six days before chipping. It was easy to wear and worked with all of my outfits. Perfection!

Chanel Lovely Beige nail polish is part of Chanel’s late summer 2015 beauty collection “Les Beiges.” Lovely Beige, and the entire “Les Beiges” collection, can be found online here, here, here, and here.
