Tom Ford Blackout is a fabulous new nail polish color from Tom Ford for the winter, and holiday season. This edgy hue is not your average, flat black color! Noooooo, Tom Ford upped the black nail polish game by adding sparkles, and dimension to Blackout. The result is fabulous!

Tom Ford Blackout nail polish is a cream polish, littered with millions of dazzling sparkles. The sparkles are a cool, subtle silver, and they add dimension to the black hue. This makes Blackout a must-have in anyone’s nail polish wardrobe. After all, black is a edgy yet neutral version of classic nail polish.

Throughout the years, black nail polish has drifted in and out of fashion. Although it has it’s popular moments, black nail polish is a classic color which is considered both neutral, and cutting-edge. This makes it an easy shade to wear with any color palette, in any season.

Blackout by Tom Ford is an excellent black nail polish to own. I have noticed Tom Ford nail polish has a strong shelf life. His polish maintains it’s texture, color, and composition while sitting on a shelf, for an extended period of time. One of my pet peeves is when a nail polish has been sitting on a shelf for six months, and it goes bad! Tom Ford does not. It maintains a long life, which is nothing short of fabulous!

I tested out Tom Ford Blackout nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one coat of top coat. The polish applied evenly, without streaking. It also lasted  a full week without chipping. Love that!

I have fallen in love with Tom Ford Blackout nail polish, and I look forward to wearing it throughout the winter 2016, and holiday 2015 seasons!

Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir Holidays 2015 review

From top: Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish over Chanel Vamp. First photo taken without a flash, second photo taken with a flash. Third photo taken without a flash. To see a photo of Chanel Vamp without a top coat, please click here.

Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish is a golden, sparkling top coat from Chanel’s Holiday 2015 beauty collection, Vamp Attitude. The Holiday 2015 beauty collection, Vamp Attitude, includes Vamp, Rose Fusion, and Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir.

Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish by Chanel is a clear, deep red nail polish with golden flecks. The clear coat offers a deep red tinge which compliments Vamp when applied as a top coat. The golden sparkles lay flat, so they offer a smooth top coat; unlike many sparkling top coats which leave a rough surface.

I tested out Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish with one  base coat, two coats of Vamp, and one coat of Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir. The nail polish is strong, and takes the place of a regular top coat. My nails lasted a full week! I changed the color due to nail growth, not chipping. Love that!

Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir nail polish will be a festive addition to any dark nail polish color this holiday season. Although it looks fabulous on Vamp, I want to try it on a black polish, dark purple polish, and over a silver polish. I think the results will be fabulous! I will be posting swatches later this month, so stay tuned!

The Vamp Attitude beauty collection for the holiday 2015 season by Chanel is nothing short of fabulous. I love all three polishes! Rose Fusion is an edgy yet classic neutral which can be worn during any season. Vamp is, of course, a legendary classic nail polish hue, and Chanel Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir is a fabulous holiday top coat which can be used every holiday season; or anytime during the year you want to be playful, and sparkle!

I highly recommend all three nail polishes for your collection. I am thrilled with all three! Chanel Vamp was already in my collection from last year, so adding Rose Fusion and Le Top Coat Lame Rouge Noir was easy. I love these colors!!!
