I’m in love with the new Chanel nail polish spring 2022 collection! Although it only has two colors, the spring 2022 nail polish collection from Chanel offers an avant-garde yet traditional spring hue, as well as an earthy neutral for the warm weather season. There is a color for everyone in this small yet perfect collection! Love!

The spring 2022 season is bright, light, and cheerful. Designers are playing with lighter neutrals, pastels, and bright hues for the spring season, when it comes to our apparel. This is a fabulous season to choose your favorite color palette and play with it when building your spring wardrobe; or you can indulge in all the colors! 2022 is our year. We are going to have fun! So, let’s start with our nails, shall we?

Chanel has given us a pale pastel, and a vivid neutral for the spring 2022 season. They are both colors to have in our spring nail polish wardrobe. I tested both Chanel Riviera and Chanel Terra Rossa out with one base coat, and two coats of color. They are both chip resistant, cream polishes which glide on smooth and offer pretty, saturated color. Love! So, without further ado, here are the two nail polish colors from Chanel for the spring 2022 season!

Chanel nail polish spring 2022 | Chanel Riviera

Chanel Riviera nail polish is a soft, pale yellow hue which offers traditional spring vibes. Of course, we normally think of pale yellow on clothing, and sometimes shoe or handbags; not our nails. This spring Chanel is putting this sweet, springy hue on our nails, and I am in love! This is the fresh and new color we have all been waiting for. I plan to rock this color during the season as much as possible. Love!

Although I used two coats of color for these photos, this polish can easily streak if the coats are not carefully applied. Be prepared to touch up your mani if one of your coats was too thin.

Chanel nail polish spring 2022 | Chanel Terra Rossa

If traditional nail colors are more your speed, Chanel Terra Rossa is a combination of terra cotta and rose. It’s a neutral hue you can wear to the office and pair with any color palette this spring season. If you prefer a neutral color for your nails, this is the one! Terra Rossa is also a great color to wear now as we transition from winter into spring. Since it is a little darker than Riviera, you can pair it with your winter wardrobe, and it will blend in well. This is the color I am wearing now, as I type this post since it is still very much winter here!

Dior nail polish cruise 2022 review

The Dior nail polish cruise 2022 collection is here, and it’s both refreshing and fabulous.

Neutral and classic nail polish was a huge trend in 2021, and while bright colors, and happy ensembles will be hotter than hot in 2022, we are currently looking at more classic nail polish colors as we move into the new year. These timeless hues will balance our happy and bright looks this cruise, spring and summer 2022 seasons. Love!

For the cruise 2022 season, Dior is giving us fresh hues which make us want to book a yacht, go on a beach vacation, and basically go somewhere warm. Yes, I am wishing I was on a warm beach, or a desert vacation right now, but I digress. . .

The Dior cruise 2022 nail polish collection offers four beautiful colors for us to wear, so even if you are like me, and you don’t have a resort vacation booked, you and I can at least look like we are on a beach with our fabulous nails. We have a choice between feminine and classic pink with N**e Look, edgy neutrals with Cashmere and Tutu, or a dark beige-pink with Dansante. Love!

So, without further ado, let’s take a look at the four fabulous hues from the Dior cruise 2022 nail polish collection!

Dior nail polish cruise 2022 | Dior N. . . Look 100

dior nail polish cruise 2022 review

Dior 100 is a beautiful classic, medium pink nail polish. The name has nothing to do with the color, and I cannot type it for obvious reasons. haha That being said, this is a classic pink, and if you don’t already own a good pink polish, this is a pretty one to invest in for 2022. We will be seeing more pink polishes as the year progresses.

Dior nail polish cruise 2022 | Dior Tutu

Dior Tutu nail polish from the Dior nail polish cruise 2022 collection is an orange-based beige which is a great, edgy neutral hue for the warm weather. It’s similar to colors other designers will be putting out for spring, so if you prefer Dior but admire the trendy nail polish colors that designers release, this is a great investment, not only for the cruise seasons, but well into the spring season too.

Dior nail polish cruise 2022 | Dior Dansante

Dior Dansante nail polish a dark beige with purple-pink undertones. This the darkest polish from the cruise 2022 collection by Dior, and it’s the best color for transitioning from winter into the resort season. I am currently wearing Dansante and I love it! I plan to wear it for a while, or at least until I start to get more in a cruise season mode. Since I am writing this a week before Christmas, my head is still in the holiday season. haha

Dior nail polish cruise 2022 | Dior Cashmere

Dior Cashmere is a light and feminine neutral with slightly orange undertones; or you could say peachy. This is a great nail polish if you like wearing a lot of color or, if you prefer your nails to blend into the background. Cashmere is the best color for a conservative, office environment too.

Well, there you have it! Four fabulous hues for the cruise 2022 season by Dior. Which color is your favorite? I am currently wearing Dansante and love it!

Chanel nail polish holidays 2021

Chanel holidays 2021 beauty collection

The Chanel holidays 2021 beauty collection is here! This holiday season, Chanel is celebrating their iconic fragrance, Chanel No. 5. The entire holiday beauty collection is centered around Chanel No. 5 by offering classic hues, and Chanel No. 5 themed packaging. Love it!

This year, the Chanel nail polish holidays 2021 collection consists of one, iconic red nail polish which offers pinkish and cherry undertones. This is a classic red which is in theme with the timeless beauty collection Chanel has given us for the holidays 2021 season. It’s beautiful, classic, and iconic. Love!

There are several colors of lipstick for the holiday season, and additional make-up options, in Chanel’s holidays 2021 beauty collection. I invested in one lipstick, the fabulous bottle of edp, and this classic nail polish.

Without further ado, here is what I purchased from the Chanel holidays 2021 beauty collection, Chanel No. 5.

Chanel nail polish holidays 2021 | Chanel Rouge Intemporel

How pretty is Chanel Rouge Intemporel nail polish for the holiday 2021 season? I love it! This cherry hue is classic and feminine. It’s a great investment red to wear now, and all year long. If you like a little sparkle for the holidays, check out this top coat from Dior.

I tested out Chanel Rouge Intemporel nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. As with all Chanel’s nail polishes, the Chanel nail polish holidays 2021 collection is chip resistant, and it goes on streak free. This is a cream polish with a shiny finish. Love!

Chanel lipstick holidays 2021 | Chanel Rouge Allure Rouge Brulant

Normally I gravitate towards sheer lipsticks, but this cream lipstick from Chanel for the holiday season was too pretty to pass up. The Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick for the holiday 2021 season includes five colors. I picked up Chanel Rouge Brulant which is a pinkish red hue. I love how it compliments the Chanel nail polish holidays 2021 hue. Chanel Rouge Brulant offers more pink than Chanel Rouge Intemporel nail polish, and I feel like it’s the right mix of pink and red for a festive holiday season.

As usual, the Chanel Rouge Allure lipstick collection offers moisture, and does not dry out the lips. It goes on smoothly, without clumping or running. This is the holy grail of cream lipstick.

Chanel No. 5 EDP limited edition holidays 2021

For the holiday 2021 season, Chanel has created a beauty collection themed around the iconic Chanel No. 5 fragrance collection. As part of the collection, there are EDT and EDP offerings. I chose the EDP as I prefer a slightly stronger, and longer lasting, fragrance experience.

The Chanel No 5 holiday bottle comes in a bottle shaped box with an elastic emblem at the top. This is a beautiful way to store the bottle, especially if you store your fragrances in an area with light.

Pro tip: always store fragrances in a dark, dry area to preserve them, and allow them, to last for years. This means keeping them out of the bathroom. I keep mine in a hall closet away from the bathrooms.

Since this collection is limited edition, and celebrates the iconic Chanel No. 5 fragrance collection, it will make a great holiday gift for the beauty and Chanel fan on your list! I guess I gave this collection to myself for Christmas. haha
