Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I got all 3 of these polishes, but I'm not sure they're for me. I love the concept and really like the colors in the bottle...but, there's a but. I don't think they're all that flattering when actually on my nails against my skin tone, which is a bummer.

When I remove my current mani (Chanel Steel, LOVE!) I'll be playing with these more to see what I think. If I decide to pass them on, I know my sister in law will be thrilled, so at least they won't go to waste.

That's thoughtful of you, but I hope you love them on and keep them!!

Meanwhile I know I'm getting this but still don't know when!!

Yes, these are awesome swatches!

I am sure I will love the n/p as much as I love Paradoxal

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I think I want Brun now ...

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I bought all three, and I find Brun to be the most unique. I now have Paradoxal on my toes. Do you think any of these will look good as a manicure?

I had a package arrive in Germany in 3...yes 3....days!!!! Mind you I always ship airmail and never ground because I find ground too slow/unreliable and air isn't much more.

Hope you get it soon Karin!

Yeah, I had to them ship ground because they're polishes. There was one package I sent ground that took two weeks!! I hope it doesn't take that long to get to you!

I think they all would! I got Khaki rose specifically for my tips!

Going by Karla's pics, Brun looks really pretty as well. I'm pretty sure if these were more readily available, I probably would've caved and gotten them all!

Hehe, like me.

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I'm way intrigued by the colors though I've never tried a Chanel polish. I like that more and more brands seem to be veering away from the usual reds and pinks and going towards more earthy, warm colors. I usually don't go for cream shades b/c I prefer a little shimmer but more and more I'm getting sucked in by other formulas and I think these would be totally worth a try. It's the green ones that get me each time.

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I am loving this one, Khaki Vert. It is a difficult color to judge but i think it grew on me!

Hi, where did yout get them?
I didn't see them today... I really want Kakhi Vert, I'm in a green nail polish roll right now!

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

You can buy them at the new Chanel beaute boutique at Marina Bay Sands. This collection is exclusively available there only. I'm not sure if stocks are still available, so you can call to check to make sure.

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I got my Khaki Rose! Thank you Karin!

At first glance, it was more khaki than Rose, but it seems to appear different depending on the lighting too! I had a second glance at it today, and I looove it in the bottle, held it up to my hands and like the way it looks with the olive (albeit tanned olive) skintone on my hands!

Also got Steel, now this was prettier than I anticipated!

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

She does do great swatches. I did comparisons with Khaki Rose and Khaki Brun, also and that post will be up on my blog this afternoon. I couldn't find any dupes in my collection, though.

Re: Les Khakis De Chanel

I agree that the formula of these polishes are amazing. When I applied them on my nails before going for my holiday, I was very pleased that they went on so smoothly. I have read reviews by bloggers who raved how some nail polishes literally applied themselves, and haven't experienced anything like that until these Les Khakis and Paradoxal. And Khaki Rose is growing on me!
