Are you experiencing a bit of deja vu? Yeah, me too! The Chanel nail polish collection for fall 2023 is eerily similar to the spring collection, just a few shades darker. The bright and cheery Chanel Ete Indien nail polish hue for fall 2023 is nearly identical to Chanel’s Watermelon shade from spring 2023. If you already invested in Watermelon, you can cheat and wear it again for fall! Then we have Chanel Bois Des Iles nail polish. This is a true fall hue. This deep, dark red nail polish is much darker than spring’s Rouge Cuir, so it is the perfect fall nail polish to snap up now. Love!

These shades of nail polish from the red and orange family are right in line with the fall 2023 beauty trends which are edgier versions of classic autumn hues. Chanel Bois Des Iles feels right for the fall season, and I am wearing it as I type this!

The fall color palette is giving us shades of brown, red, blue green and pink with occasional pops of yellow. Both Chanel Etet Indien nail polish and Chanel Bois Des Iles nail polish will play well with these autumn hues which are hitting store shelves as we speak. While I love both colors, Bois Des Iles by Chanel is my favorite. Love!

I tested out both colors from the fall 2023 Chanel nail polish collection with one base coat and two coats of colors. I did not photograph these nail polishes with a top coat. Chanel Bois Des Iles is a cream polish which glides on easily in two coats. Chanel Ete Indien has a gel-like consistency which is quite sheer when applying, but the second coat glides on smoothly and gives the polish an opaque finish; so don’t try to wear it with one coat! You must use two coats for this one.

So, without further ado, here are the two nail polish colors from the Chanel nail polish fall 2023 collection.

As I mentioned above, I am in love with Chanel Bois Des Iles nail polish for the fall 2023 season. I am already wearing it! This is a fabulous color which can be worn in the office, as well as anywhere else. It is a great workhorse for the autumn season. Love that!

The Dior fall 2023 nail polish collection is here! Love! For the fall 2023 season, Dior has re-formulated their nail polish collection and introduced two new hues for the autumn season. The only difference I have spotted with the new formula so far, is that the polish is easier to remove with nail polish remover. Otherwise, it seems to have the same staying power and fabulous color saturation we love from Dior.

For fall 2023, Dior introduced a curated nail polish collection with one fashion-forward neutral and one whimsical yet understated shade. Love that!

Whether you are looking for a color which stans out, or one that blends in, Dior has a color for you this fall 2023 season. I love both of these colors. So, without further ado, here are the hues for fall 2023 from Dior nail polish.

Dior nail polish fall 2023 | Dior Rouge Atelier

Well, obviously Dior Rouge Atelier nail polish is my favorite fall 2023 nail polish color. This is a reddish-brown hue with sparkles. I love sparkles! You can see the golden sparkles in the photo, which shows they are good and sparkly! haha

Rouge Atelier by Dior is perfect for the fall season as it acts like a neutral and plays well with the upcoming autumn color palette in fashion. This nail polish color will blend in perfectly with fall neutrals, as well as shades of green, red, berry, and blue. I am in love! If you work in a conservative office environment, you should be able to pull this color off since it acts like a neutral. Love!

Dior nail polish fall 2023 | Dior Osee

Dior Osee nail polish will be the perfect travel nail polish for fall 2023 season. It is quite light, so it won’t show chips if you are traveling, or working with your hands a lot. In addition, Osee by Dior will play well with any color palette you plan to wear for the fall 2023 season. This is the ultimate neutral and will be perfect in a professional office environment; especially if you feel like Rouge Atelier would be pushing dress code.

Both nail polish hues were tested with one base coat, and two coats of color. I did not use a top coat for testing.

Well, that’s it! Dior has offered us two, carefully curated nail polish colors for the fall 2023 season. Aren’t they fabulous?! Love! Which one is your favorite?

Chanel Fugueuse nail polish review

How pretty is this navy blue hue! This new nail polish color from Chanel is part of their new classic collection and offers rich color saturation as well as a long-lasting formula. As a blue nail polish fan, I am in love!

Chanel Fugueuse is a fabulous navy blue which can worn in any season of the year. My favorite season for dark blue is fall, but it can be worn at any time. There is something neutral about dark and navy blue.

I tested out Chanel Fugueuse nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. The polish went on smoothly and was not streaky. It is a glossy cream polish which offers good color saturation as well as a shiny, glossy finish. Love!

What do you think of Chanel Fugueuse nail polish? Do you love it too?
