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!

Without further ado, here are the three hues you will be rocking this summer season as the yin to Dior’s bright summer colors and Chanel’s bright spring/summer colors yang!

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.

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 legerete nail polish summer 2018 review

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!

Chanel Bleu Trompeur nail polish review

Well, you know, I’m a sucker for anything blue! Chanel released four spring 2018 nail polish colors mid-season, and this new blue one caught my eye. It’s a light navy color, which fits perfectly into spring’s classic color palette.

Over the years, Chanel has released plenty of versions of navy blue nail polish. This isn’t a ground-breaking, or earth-shattering, color; but it is a really pretty navy blue. It isn’t a super dark navy, like Chanel typically releases in the fall season. Bleu Trompeur nail polish is a medium navy blue, which is lighter then other navy colors in Chanel’s nail polish line.

I tested out Chanel Bleu Trompeur nail polish for spring 2018 with one base coat, and two coats of color. I did not use a top coat. I have found that Chanel nail polish doesn’t really need a top coat anymore; since the release of their longwear collection a few years ago. Like with other Chanel colors, Bleu Trompeur is long lasting, and gave me a week before chipping. Love that!

If you are looking for a neutral yet non-conservative nail color this spring 2018 season, then Chanel Bleu Trompeur nail polish is for you! Navy is an easy color to wear with all color groups from the spring palette. Since Blue Trompeur isn’t a classic pink or red hue-yet it still acts like a neutral color while it gives off a playful, avant-garde vibe; which is a great way to to be neutral, without wearing a neutral. Love it!

You can find Chanel Bleu Trompeur nail polish for spring 2018 online here.

What do you think of this color for spring? Will you be rocking it? Or do you prefer more of a classic hue such as pink or red?

Thanks for stopping by!

Chanel Violet Piquant nail polish review for spring 2018

Chanel Violet Piquant nail polish is a late spring release from Chanel for the warm weather season. Often referred to as “Act II” from Chanel, four new nail polish colors have been released for spring 2018; and this is my favorite color from the bunch!

As you know, purple or “Ultra Violet” is the color of 2018. So, to see Chanel release a fabulous violet version of their own for spring has me spinning with delight! I love purple; and I love Chanel nail polish, so this is the dream nail color of the century for me! Love!

Chanel Violet Piquant nail polish is a dark, violet hue which could easily be mistaken for a fall nail color. If you want to rock the color of the year on your nails for the duration of 2018, this is the color to wear! It is dark, almost-vampy, and a beautiful violet hue.

I tested out Chanel Violet Piquant with one base coat, and two coats of colors. I did not use a top coat. As with most Chanel nail polishes, it is long lasting and offers beautiful color saturation. Since the polish is dark, the second coat needs to be carefully applied in order to prevent streaking. I did need to do a third coat on two nails which were not covered enough. Even with three coats, those two nails did not bumble or look thick. It looks just as chic with three coats as with two. Love this polish!

You can find Chanel Violet Piquant nail polish for spring 2018 online here. To see the main spring 2018 nail polish collection from Chanel, check out my review here.

What do you think of Chanel Violet Piquant nail polish for the spring 2018 season? Is this a color you would like to wear for the entire year as a nod to :Ultra Violet?”
