ShadeM Beauty liquid lipsticks C/O ShadeM: online here /

ShadeM Beauty is a fabulous company which creates beautiful make-up that can worn by, and enjoyed by, anyone of any shade. Love that!

Created by beauty experts with over seventeen years of experience in the industry, ShadeM Beauty was created with a love for make-up. The founders have mixed-ethnicities, and knew there was a void in the industry with so few beauty brands representing all ethnicities and skin tones; as well as being represented through visual identity and stories.

Liquid Lipstick is perfect for days and occasions when you want your lip color to stay put; without drying out your skin. What I love about ShadeM Beauty is that their liquid lipstick does exactly that; it stays put, offers vibrant color, and doesn’t dry out the lips. Love!

There is a shade for everyone at ShadeM Beauty. Whatever your skin tone, there are many colors which will work with your coloring. Their color offerings also work with any type of personal style. If your style is California Casual like me, there are toned down hues you will love (like me!), and if you enjoy pushing the style envelope, there are bold hues for you too! I love a brand which offers something for everyone.

My skin tone is medium, and my personal style is on the conservative and casual side. I consider my personal style to be California Casual with a touch of glam. For my medium skin tone, 100% of my ancestors came from Italy, so while my skin isn’t as olive as my Mother’s, it still has a Mediterranean tone. My two favorite hues from ShadeM Beauty are Vivid 8 and Desrose 10. Vivid is a fun pink for going out and Desrose is perfect for all my Zoom calls, and my future in-person businesses events.

Speaking of video conference meetings and calls, ShadeM Beauty offers vivid hues which look great on-screen. If you take a lot of video calls, or enjoy filming videos, these liquid lipsticks look amazing on camera as well as in person.

Chanel Perles et Eclats spring 2021 nail polish

Perles et Eclats de Chanel spring 2021 beauty collection

Chanel nail polish spring 2021 take two! The Act II beauty collection for spring 2021 has arrived. This collection has a traditional Chanel theme; pearls. The beauty collection contains eye make-up, nail polish, several lipsticks, powder, and glow sticks. I purchased the eye quad, one of the rouge coco flash hues, and of course, the Perles et Eclats de Chanel nail polish collection.

The two nail polish hues from the Perles et Eclats de Chanel beauty collection are fabulous alternatives to the Chanel spring 2021 nail polish collection. If the spring nail polish hues were too bold for you, these colors are more feminine, subdue, and traditional for the spring 2021 season.

Chanel Perle Blanche is a sparkling pinkish-white nail polish on the verge of being sheer. This soft color offers a barely-there look which is ideal in the warmer months. I love this color for travel when I would like to ensure my nail polish plays well with everything in my suitcase. High hopes for travel this summer! It will also be a fabulous nail polish shade for toes during sandal season, as it won’t compete with any shoe color. Love that!

If you prefer darker nail polish hues, Chanel Perle Burgundy nail polish is also a metallic polish, in a much darker shade. This purplish-burgundy is beautiful. I am not sure I have the right adjectives to express how pretty this color is out of the bottle, and on the nail. I am in love! Chanel Perle Burgundy nail polish has purple undertones and looks more berry than burgundy. The sparkles add dimension too. This is an incredible color to wear now, and as we transition from winter into spring. Love!

I love the classic and feminine vibe of the Perles et Eclats de Chanel collection for spring 2021. It is a nice compliment to the spring 2021 collection which offers an edgier and more bold vibe. This collection gives us choices depending on our moods this spring. Is it a bold day? Is it a quiet day? We have a nail color to suit our moods. Love that!

Chanel nail polish fall 2020 review

The Chanel fall 2020 nail polish collection is here! Not surprisingly, the colors are simple, chic, and classic; which is a true reflection of the fall 2020 season.

Fall 2020 is all about keeping things simple and classic. This nail polish for the autumn season provides that very vibe. The pink is chic, and the red is vampy; both ideal fall colors for a classic look. Love it!

So, without further ado, let’s dig in to the fall 2020 nail polish collection from Chanel!

Chanel nail polish fall 2020 : Chanel Interdit

Chanel Interdit nail polish for the fall 2020 season is a dark and vampy red hue. It is a deep and mysterious red with dark blue undertones bordering on black. It actually reminds me of vamp! Which is interesting given that fall 2020 fashion has 1990s influences. Chanel Interdit nail polish will blend in perfectly with these vibes!

If you are a classic, red nail polish girl, this is your hue of fall 2020. Interdit by Chanel can be worn both day and night; making it fabulous for the office and a night on the town. Or, if you are still locked down like we are in California, it can make you feel like you have someplace to go.

Chanel nail polish fall 2020 : Chanel Egerie

Pink is another timeless nail polish hue. To reinvent this classic shade, Chanel is giving us Egerie for the fall 2020 season. This is a light pink nail polish color with slightly white undertones. It is more of a pale pink than one would expect for the autumn season. This makes Chanel Egerie nail polish a feminine and playful hue for the fall season. If you are still on lockdown, this is a color you can put on and not worry about if it chips. Since it is such a light color, chips won’t show easily. Love that!

Chanel lipstick fall 2020

There are more colors from Chanel in their fall 2020 lipstick collection than just Lust. But, this was the one color I was drawn to. After all, when I go out in public I am wearing a mask. This dark yet sheer color is perfect for video conferencing since it shows up without being heavy. I am a huge fan of the Rouge Coco Flash collection. The colors offer sheer color and the lipstick itself is moisturizing and long lasting. Love!

Which color is your favorite for the fall season? Chanel Interdit nail polish is my favorite hue, but I will definitely get a lot of use out of Egerie too!

Thanks for stopping by!
