The Chanel fall 2021 nail polish collection has arrived! This season, Chanel has created four autumn hues which are right on trend for the fall season; they are dark, yet unexpected versions of otherwise classic nail polish shades. Wow!

There are two nail polish colors from the red family; a dark red named Terre Brulee and a deep burgundy named Rouge Brun. As the name suggests, Rouge Brun has brown undertones. It’s a fabulous color!

If you are more of a putty or neutral nail polish fan, then there are two hues for you! Chanel is offering Brun Fume, which is a grey-ish dark brown, and Beige Cendre which is a light beige-grey. In my opinion, this is a great color to wear now as we transition from summer into fall. I am wearing Chanel Beige Cendre as I type this!

I tested out all four nail polish colors from Chanel with one base coat, and two coats of color. They are all cream polishes, and thankfully, all four colors go on smoothly without streaking. Love that!

So, without further ado, here are the four nail polish colors from Chanel for the fall 2021 season.

Chanel nail polish fall 2021 | Chanel Terre Brulee

Chanel Terre Brulee is a dark version of a classic red polish. It has a slightly cool undertone, and it is a few shades darker than a classic, medium red. If you love red nail polish, this is your fall hue! It’s the modern version of red. Love!

Chanel nail polish fall 2021 | Chanel Rouge Brun

I love this color! Chanel Rouge Brun nail polish is a dark burgundy shade with slightly brown undertones. It is a beautiful color which feel fresh, while still offering a classic vibe. When the weather starts to cool down, this will be my hue! Isn’t’ it fabulous? Love!

Chanel nail polish fall 2021 | Chanel Brun Fume

Oh I love this version of brown! At first glance, I thought this was a grey nail polish with brown undertones, but it is the opposite. After putting it on my nails, I realized Chanel Brun Fume nail polish is a deep brown hue with grey undertones; think of it as a cold brown. I really love this color and can see myself alternating this polish with Chanel Rouge Brun as the weather cools down during the fall season. This feels like the most unique color of the collection, love it!

Chanel nail polish fall 2021 | Chanel Beige Cendre

How pretty is this light grey-beige from Chanel?! Chanel Beige Cendre is a feminine version of beige, and it is perfect to wear now as we transition from the summer season into the fall season. Beige Cendre by Chanel is a cool beige with grey undertones, and it’s an easy color to wear. If you want something on trend, yet understated for the office, this is your nail polish color! It is the professional color from the collection. I am wearing it right now! Love!

Chanel fall 2021 beauty | Chanel Powder Blush Ombre

OK, if you are like me, you are realizing you need makeup! Now that the masks are off, we need to put something on our faces again. For video meetings, I was only doing my eyes and putting on lipstick; no blush or powder! Now that we are back out in the world, without masks, the blush and powder needs to come back! I don’t wear foundation as I am prone to acne. I wear a foundation powder, which is fabulous and offers ideal coverage without clogging my pores. You can find it online here. That being said, the way to instantly update the face, without wearing a ton of makeup, is with blush!

The Chanel fall 2021 beauty collection offers fabulous colors for the fall season which will instantly update your face. I didn’t splurge on the eye shadow quad just yet, but I did grab the powder blush. It is a light and cool color, giving the face an instantly modern, and very 2021, look. Love that!

Spring beauty essentials

Spring is official this upcoming weekend! If you haven’t already updated your makeup bag, skin care routine, and hair care-it’s time!

Makeup for spring uses bright versions of classic hues, which offer a timeless yet cheery look for the warm weather season. Love that! I’m crushing on this bright and sparkling red nail polish, as well as this bright yet timeless lipstick hue.

Spring skin care

The spring season is when skin care starts to change. As temperatures warm up, we need to make sure our skin is getting the attention it needs. I love making sure I have spf in my face cream, as well as ensuring I am keeping my skin tone even as the sun starts to give me a base tan.

I also love this body butter to ensure my skin is properly moisturized. Also, this hand cream is fabulous; especially with all the hand washing we do these days!

Spring hair care

My hair has been dry and brittle, so I switched up my shampoo! I have been using this shampoo and conditioner for two weeks now, and I already notice a difference. My hair is getting healthier and less brittle. Love that!

Also a huge fan of this oil treatment and hair dryer. If you are going to splurge on anything, this hair dryer is worth every penny. It is so gentle on the hair; yet it does the job quickly! Love it!

Chanel La Fleur et L’Eau nail polish late spring 2020

Chanel la Fleur de L’Eau spring 2020 makeup collection from top: Chanel blush / Chanel Fleur de Pecher nail polish / Chanel Petale nail polish / Chanel Rouge Coco Flash in Eau de Rose /

Chanel act II is here! The late spring 2020 collection, also referred to as Act II or Chanel’s second season release, is here. Chanel La Fleur de L’Eau is a soft and feminine makeup collection which features two new nail polish hues, two new Rouge Coco Flash colors (I purchased one which you can see above), blush, and more. I only purchased one lipstick, and the blush, along with the two nail polish hues.

Spring 2020 is bringing us vibrant hues in apparel, as well as some pastels. The Chanel La Fleur de L’Eau collection is perfect for acting as a neutral against the many colors we are seeing right now for spring. I decided to purchase the blush, which is a fresh and pretty pink, for the spring season. It’s a light and airy color which works well with many skin tones. I also felt like I needed a fun lipstick color for the spring season. As you know, I prefer sheer lipsticks, so when I saw the new Eau de Rose from Chanel’s Coco Flash collection, I knew it would make the perfect spring hue. It’s my favorite lipstick color Chanel has released for spring. Love!

Chanel La Fleur de L’eau spring 2020 collection: Chanel Petale nail polish

If you are looking for a chic and classic pink this spring season, Chanel Petale nail polish from the Chanel La Fleur de L’Eau collection for late spring, is the hue for you! It’s a medium pink with blue undertones. I find the hue mature and alluring. I’m not normally a pink nail polish person, but I will wear this pink. It’s vibrant and fun!

Chanel La Fleur de L’eau spring 2020 collection: Chanel Fleur de Pecher nail polish

I cannot resist sparkles! Chanel Fleur de Pecher nail polish from the Chanel La Fleur de L’Eau beauty collection for late spring 2020 is the hue for me! It’s a peachy pink with subtle sparkles. I always reach for sparkly nail polish when it’s around. Love this one! I plan on switching from the spring 2020 collection, to this hue as we move forward in the season. It’s a little bit lighter, which plays well with my current mood for spring.
