How pretty is this purple hue! I am in love! Chanel Sorciere is one of twenty-four new nail polish colors introduced this summer by Chanel. Isn’t it fabulous! Love!

Sorciere by Chanel is a pretty purple hue which you can wear now, during the summer months, we as well throughout the fall and winter season. It is a good color which transcends seasons. I am excited to weave it into my current summer nail polish rotation.

I tested out Chanel Sorciere nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. It is a cream polish which glides on smoothly and applies streak free. I did find a couple of spots where I needed to do a third brush stroke to make the color even. This could have been due to applying too light of a first coat.

ReVive neck renewal cream review

I am scratching my head trying to figure how I have had this blog for over thirteen years and I have not reviewed my favorite beauty product yet! How in the world did this happen? Well, I am correcting my wrongdoing now by telling you all about this fabulous neck cream from ReVive.

When I was twenty-eight years old, I decided to get serious about my skin care. I felt myself pushing thirty, and the writing was on the wall that skin care would be an important part of aging gracefully. Fast forward to my late forties, and I am still doing the same skin care routine I developed when I was twenty-eight.

The most important part of my skin care routine is this neck cream. While I have tested out others along the way, I always go back to my old faithful, ReVive Neck Renewal Cream. Since I don’t believe in using fillers or plastic surgery, using creams which actually work is very important to me. This neck cream has kept my neck skin firm and wrinkle free over the years; even after losing forty pounds almost two years ago.

In addition to keeping my neck skin firm, ReVive Neck Renewal Cream contains spf, which is really an important part of combating the aging process and protecting your skin. The cream is smooth and doesn’t leave a sticky residue; it blends in really well leaving skin soft and well balanced. Love that!

So, if you are looking for the ultimate neck cream, this is it. If ReVive ever stops producing this neck cream, I will have to organize and stage a large-scale protest because I need this cream!

Chanel nail polish summer 2023 review

Just in time for the summer 2023 season, Chanel has introduced 24 new nail polish shades to choose from in a protective, long-wearing formula with what seems to me, to be a slightly flatter application brush. While not being marketed as a summer collection, the 24 new hues arrived just in time for the warm weather season, making them summer in my mind!

I am not purchasing 24 bottles of nail polish all at one time, so I picked out the colors which are most on trend for the summer 2023 season, and created this post around them so that you can see swatches of the best colors for the summer season. If these shades are not your thing, that’s OK, there are plenty of classic reds, neutrals, and other colors in the new Chanel nail polish collection which will catch your eye. I will also review a few additional colors from the new collection in the next month.

The summer 2023 season is moving away from neutral nails. Well, that trend was short lived! haha

This summer season, we are seeing vivid pastels and fun colors which will add life to the preppy, understated, and neutral ensembles that are hot on the street this season. These fun nail polish hues will add a little spice to your loafers, v-neck tennis sweaters, and khaki shorts. Love that!

I tested out these four colors with one base coat and two coats of color. What seems to be a new, flatter application brush is not that much different from the old brush, and if I didn’t think there was a change, I would not have noticed that it seemed slightly flatter.

So, without further ado, here are my four color recommendations for the summer 2023 season from the new Chanel nail polish collection launched just in time for the summer season.

Chanel Cavalier Seul nail polish

Chanel Muse nail polish

What do you think of these new colors for summer? I don’t have an absolute favorite, so all four of these hues are tops on my list.

Do you think you will go for one of these fun colors for summer? Or will you reach for a neutral or classic hue?
