Happy National Nail Polish Day 2018! Since nail polish is one of my favorite things on earth, National Nail Polish Day has to be one of my favorite national days of the year!
I love the idea of being able to celebrate nail polish! It’s such an easy way to fit into the latest trends without spending a ton of money. Nail polish also helps make you look put together when you are just schlepping around in yoga pants. It also always fits! Just like handbags and shoes; if you yo-yo in weight like me, you don’t have to worry about nail polish, handbags, or shoes not fitting-they always fit! Love that!
In honor of National Nail Polish Day, I thought I would share with you my favorite nail colors du jour. Since it is summer season in nail polish land, these colors are almost all summer shades. If course, I am sharing a few others too!
Normally this time of year, Chanel releases new nail polish colors for the summer 2018 season. Starting last year, they released colors from their Cruise show, throwing the seasons off kilter! The spring 2018 collection released at the end of December, was labeled for spring and summer; although with six nail polish collections released throughout the year, it’s hard to imagine those colors being the end-all-be-all through both the spring and summer seasons.
Now, these colors could quite possibly be sold out by the time the resort/cruise 2019 season arrives, therefore, these colors should be worn now! Chanel will undoubtedly release new colors during the upcoming cruise/resort 2019 season anyway, so why wait until then!? These are the newest nail polish colors by Chanel, so they are presumably the summer 2018 collection. Thought you could confuse us Chanel, didn’t ya?
These new nail polish colors from Chanel for the summer 2018 season, or Cruise 2019, whichever you prefer, are a fabulous contrast to the brighter colors we are seeing in nails for the summer 2018 season. If bright colors aren’t your thing, this is the nail polish collection you have been dreaming about for the summer season!
Chanel nail polish summer 2018 | Chanel cruise 2019 nail polish: Chanel Chicness
Chanel Chicness nail polish is a muted, beige/purple hue. This is a great color for when you want to wear a nude nail, but can’t actually bring yourself to do it. It’s like a dark beige which is heavily infused with purple. It’s fabulous; and great for travel since the color plays well with most color palettes.
Chanel nail polish summer 2018 | Chanel cruise 2019 nail polish: Chanel Halo
This is the perfect pink for classic nail lovers! Chanel Halo nail polish is a really pretty pink. It’s a vibrant pink which adds just the right amount of brightness to your nails, without being edgy. Chanel Halo is the ideal color if you are a pink and red nail polish fan. I love the candy-colored hue, which plays well with all of summer’s color palettes.
Chanel nail polish summer 2018 | Chanel cruise 2019 nail polish: Chanel Legerete
When I first got my hands on the Chanel summer 2018 nail polish collection, I assumed Chanel Chicness would be my favorite; I was wrong. Chanel Legerete nail polish is my favorite! This hue is akin to a warm military green which has faded. I love it. Seriously cannot get enough of it. This color plays well with any outfit, and it’s different then what other designers are showing for the season; so it’s a bit unique in that respect. I can’t wait to wear Chanel Legerete nail polish as an alternative to the brighter hues I plan to wear from the Dior summer collection.
We will be rocking these Chanel Cruise 2019 colors as the Chanel nail polish summer 2018 collection. At the end of this year, we will dive into the new colors which Chanel will undoubtedly release for the resort/cruise 2019 season. As for now, happy summer!

What do you think of the Chanel nail polish summer 2018 collection aka Chanel Cruise 2019 nail polish collection? Which color is your favorite? Or, will you be sticking to brighter hues this warm weather season?
Dior has such pretty and vibrant colors for the summer 2018 season! The summer 2018 nail polish collection offers four bright hues; Blop, Wizz, Splash, and Pow. I purchased Blop, Splash, and Wizz for the summer season. I had trouble finding Pow in stock, and wasn’t sure I wanted to wear orange nail polish this season, so I passed. The other three colors are really pretty, and fit perfectly into the summer 2018 color palette. Love!
The nail polish hues from Dior’s summer 2018 beauty collection are part of their gel shine and long-wear collection. They are all really strong polishes. I love how chip resistant they are! This is important during the summer months when we are all active; and nail polish tends to chip more easily. These will be great polishes for the active summer since we won’t have to worry about chips! Love that!
If you aren’t familiar with Dior nail polish, the application brush makes it easy to paint your nails. It offers medium thickness and a flat silhouette, so the nail polish covers more nail with each stroke. This makes nail painting go by quickly! All of these polishes offer a high shine, and a cream polish finish which applies evenly, without streaking. So, without further ado, here are the three colors I love from the Dior summer 2018 nail polish collection!
Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Blop
This is Dior Blop nail polish from the summer 2018 collection. It looks like a light navy blue in these photos. That is also the color is appears to be when indoors. In outdoor light, Dior Blop takes on more of a violet hue. This polish definitely has purple undertones, which makes it a fun blue to pair with 2018’s color of the year; Ultra Violet.
I tested out Dior Blop nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. It offered an even application without streaking, and beautiful color saturation. Since this is a gel, it does not need a top coat; it’s really strong on it’s own!
Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Wizz
Dior Wizz nail polish is the coral of the summer! There are very slight sparkles in this polish giving it some dimension. If you prefer classic nail polish colors, this is a fun hue for the summer which offers both fashion-forward, and classic styling. My Mom has already taken this bottle away from me. She loved the color!
I tested out Dior Wizz nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. Again, it did not need a top coat since it’s a gel. This is a really pretty, classic hue which can be worn for many summers to come; if you don’t use up the bottle before then! haha
Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Splash
Well, if you have been following along for awhile, you already guessed this was my favorite color from the Dior nail polish summer 2018 collection! I love the bright, oceanic blue. It’s bright, fun, and plays well with the summer 2018 color palette. This will be the color I reach for the most often this summer season. Love it!
I tested out Dior Splash nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. It offered high shine, a beautiful hue, and it stole my heart. I’m looking forward to wearing this summer hue all season long!
Which color is your favorite?
