Chanel blue boy nail polish

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish was originally introduced by Chanel for FNO 2011. I remember when Blue Boy first came out, along with Coco Blue and Blue Rebel. I wanted to get my hands on all three, but alas, they sold out faster than you can say “ring me up!”

When Chanel re-introduced Blue Boy for the winter 2015 season, I was thrilled! Here was my chance to snap up one of the beautiful blue nail polishes from Chanel’s FNO 2011 “Les Jeans Collection.” Chanel Blue Boy nail polish is fabulous! It is a medium denim hue which blends in with any medium-wash denim  you can place your hand next to. It is a casual blue color which offers a cool, slate-like vibe; ideal for any season of the year. Love that!

There are also so many shades of blue which are on trend for the spring 2015 season, this makes Chanel Blue Boy a great color to have in your nail polish wardrobe as move from winter into spring. 

I tested out Chanel Blue Boy nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color and no top coat. Chanel Blue Boy lasted a full seven days! Perfection 🙂

Chanel Blue Boy nail polish can be found online here, here and here.

Do you love blue nail polish as much as I do? If so, also check out these beautiful blue hues by Nars and Christian Louboutin.

The winter 2015 nail polish collection from Nars is absolutely amazing. All three colors, Alogonquin, Sherwood and Barents Sea, offer beautiful pigmentation in purple and blue hues. Love that!

Nars Barents Sea is a fabulous cobalt blue nail polish which includes a vibrant, shiny sheen. Barents Sea by Nars offers depth; making other luxury cobalt nail polishes look dull in comparison. This is the ultimate blue nail polish for blue nail polish fans. I am in love!

I tested out Nars Barents Sea nail polish with two coats of color and one base coat. It lasted a full seven days before chipping. Love that! 

Nars Barents Sea nail polish is from the “Laced with Edge” nail polish collection by Nars for the winter season. It is limited edition and selling out fast! This is definitely the perfect cobalt nail polish hue to own as we move into 2015. Although Marsala is the color of the year, shades of blue are very important colors for the spring/summer 2015 season. This means Barents Sea by Nars is a great nail polish to be wearing as we move from winter into resort and into spring. It will transition easily and work well with the upcoming, warm weather color palette. Love it!

You can still find Barents Sea by Nars online here and here. Move on it fast, it is selling out!

Christian Louboutin Wherever nail polish review

Since blue is my favorite color, and it happens to be one of the most important color trends for the upcoming spring 2015 season, I had no choice but to test out Christian Louboutin’s “Wherever” nail polish hue from the “Pops” collection. Wherever by Christian Louboutin is a beautiful, rich dark blue which is almost navy; making it a good transition color from the cool winter months into the early days of spring. Love that!

Christian Louboutin Wherever nail polish is long-lasting. The nail polish lasted a full week without chipping; and that was without a top coat! I used one base coat and two coats of color. As with other Christian Louboutin nail polish hues, I find it hard to apply because the brush is sooooooo long! It is a little bit difficult to balance and guide the brush, although, after using it a few times, it is possible to develop a rhythm and be able to paint your nails without making a mess.

Aside from the awkward application brush, Christian Louboutin Wherever is an ideal classic nail polish for anyone’s collection. It is a timeless shade of dark blue which can flow easily from nautical spring styles to colorful summer ensembles. Wherever can go into the cool months of fall and blend well with classic autumn navy. When fall turns to winter, Wherever is there to play winter blue. So Christian Louboutin knew what he was doing when he named this light navy shade “Wherever.” Wherever can truly take you wherever you want to go; twelve months of the year. Love that!

Christian Louboutin Wherever nail polish is part of the “Pops” collection and can be found on here and here.
