Chanel Diwali nail polish for summer 2012 from the Bombay Express de Chanel collection

 in Beauty / Nail Polish  tagged chanel / chanel nail polish / gold / reviews / summer 2012 by

Chanel’s limited edition summer capsule collection, “Bombay Express de Chanel” includes a sparkling and luxurious nail polish; Diwali. Diwali is a shimmering golden nail lacquer which has a slight silver undertone.

Diwali nail polish by Chanel is perfect for the summer 2012 season; as well as into fall 2012. One of the biggest trends of the season is sparkling metallics. Metallics are being shown in everything including accessories, apparel and make-up. Since metallic touches are still important moving into fall 2012, Diwali is a great traditional nail polish from the summer season into the warm, early fall months.
Diwali nail polish from Chanel is also an easy way to wear fall 2012’s black and yellow gold trend before the temperatures begin to dip in September. The pale golden nature of Diwali nail polish by Chanel blends well with both yellow gold and silver-tone clothing, accessories and jewelry. This makes Diwali and easy choice for rocking the gold trend without trying too hard 

“Bombay Express de Chanel” includes more than the sparkling golden Diwali nail polish. This special collection includes Route Des Indes De Chanel which is an illuminating power with shimmer, a pale orange-pink powder blush and matching Rouge Coco Shine sheer lipstick.

Diwali is part of the special, limited edition collection “Bombay Express de Chanel” and can only be found at Chanel boutiques or online at Chanel.com. This special edition nail polish from Chanel is priced a tad higher than Chanel’s regular nail polish collection. Diwali has been priced at $30. Perhaps all the glistens really is gold? Or, all that glistens are fabulous fingertips painted with Diwali.

Laura Mercier Organza nail polish from Cinema Noir for fall 2012 review

 in Beauty / Nail Polish  tagged classic style / fall 2012 / laura mercier / pink / reviews by

Laura Mercier has released their hot new fall 2012 make-up collection “Cinema Noir” and I had to give the new, sparkling nude shade “Organza” a whirl. “Organza” is a sheer nude polish with gold sparkles which is perfect for the upcoming fall 2012 season.

Fall 2012 is all about nude nails and brown nails. In addition to nail polish colors, fall 2012 has many important trends; one of which is yellow gold. Yellow gold is huge for the fall 2012 season and Laura Mercier’s “Organza” is the perfect blend between the yellow gold trend and the nude nail polish trend.

The gold specks are eye catching and sparkle in both artificial and natural light. The sheer nude nature of the color allows the beauty of the natural nail to show through. I love the natural effect of Laura Mercier’s “Organza” combined with the dazzle of the gold sparkles!

“Organza” by Laura Mercier is perfect to wear now as well as during the fall 2012 season since the nail polish color is neutral and blends well with all colors and ensembles. It makes getting dressed in the morning a snap! Love that!

Laura Mercier’s “Organza” nail polish applies evenly and does not streak at all. In the below photo I used a base coat and two coats of “Organza” nail polish. I did not apply a top coat. The polish is long lasting, as one can expect from Laura Mercier’s fabulous line of nail lacquer.
The verdict is in! Laura Mercier’s “Organza” nail polish from the “Cinema Noir” make-up collection for the fall 2012 season received five out of five stars.

Priced at $18 each, Laura Mercier nail polish, including “Organza,” can be found at LauraMercier.com
