Happy National Nail Polish Day! What a fabulous day! As you know, I love nail polish. It is so much fun to be able to change your nail color at home on a whim. Plus, it is less expensive to paint your nails at home than going to the nail salon. Of course, you can always buy a favorite color and have a professional apply it, but I find it relaxing to do my own nails while watching something fun on television or enjoying time with my family.

So, with that being said, let’s celebrate nail polish! Yay! As I type this, I am currently wearing Hermes Bleu Electronique nail polish from their spring/summer 2024 collection. It is such a happy blue hue. Love! What color are you wearing right now?

Chanel nail polish spring 2024 review

The Chanel spring 2024 nail polish collection is here! I am so excited for this collection, especially one color in particular. Can you guess which one? Yup! You guessed it! Chanel Lagune nail polish is a beautiful, sparkling blue polish-and I am in love!

Of course, I don’t want to write a full post about my love for Lagune, there are two fabulous hues in Chanel’s spring 2024 nail polish collection! Chanel Sun Drop is a fun, bright orange-pink shade which will be perfect as the weather warms up later in the spring season. I feel like this will be the color for my toes. In addition, it is a good nail polish for a more conservative office environment; if blue won’t fly in your office.

I tested both colors with one base coat, and two coats of color. The photos were taken outside during a rain storm, so they aren’t my best work, but you can see the colors-which is what matters. So, without further ado, here is the Chanel nail polish spring 2024 collection.

Chanel Lagune is a sparkling blue nail polish which glides on easily in two coats without streaking. I love the shimmering blue-silver hue of this nail polish. It is definitely my favorite in the collection.

Chanel Sun Drop nail polish for spring 2024 is a fun and bright shade which is an avant-garde version of a classic, orange-pink nail polish for spring.

Both nail polish colors for spring 2024 from Chanel are lighthearted, festive, and perfect for making spring a fun season. Love them! I am currently wearing Chanel Lagune nail polish and plan to continue wearing it throughout the spring 2024 season.

Chanel nail polish winter 2024 review

Chanel Winter Glow

The Chanel nail polish winter 2024 collection is here! This is new. In the past, Chanel used to release their spring collection during the winter season, but in the past few years it has slowly crept into a March release. Now, Chanel has blessed us with a winter collection. Love that!

The “Winter Glow” collection from Chanel, for the winter 2024 season, includes a variety of makeup products, and two nail polish hues. The nail polish colors are not gel but have a gel-like or jelly finish. Instead of a cream or metallic, Skieuse and Glaciale are not opaque, they are see-through.

As you can see below, Chanel Skieuse nail polish is a pink color which glides on smoothly and provides a streak-free finish, but with two coats, you can still see my nails. The same goes for Chanel Glaciale nail polish, which is a white-like hue. For both colors I used one base coat and two coats of color.

If you are looking for an alternative to natural nails or clear nail polish, this is your season! You have a choice between two barely-there hues. If you prefer a more opaque manicure, stick with Chanel’s other colors and wait for spring.

What do you think of Chanel Winter Glow? Do you like these jelly-like polishes? Or are you waiting for spring?
