There's nothing more chic than a Chanel mani or pedi... Besides, Chanel nail polishes are known to have the it color of the season.

Do you want any? Are you currently wearing one??

I feel like I am stalking you Hypathya (I believe your name is Eugenia, am I right?), since I am answering to all your recently new created threads and btw, thank you so much for starting them!

I agree with you: there is no other colours as classy and chic as Chanel's.

I was actually lemming for Rose Confidentiel but I read about the "grand-mom" like sensation when wearing it and now I am a bit doubtful.

Illusion D'or was my first Chanel NP, followed shortly by Paradoxal and so on. I'm now hooked!

Do I want any? Yep...I want them all! Well, almost.

I'm pretty sure my next bottle will be Vendetta, but I can't wait to find out more about the pale baby blue color we saw a first glimpse of a while back.

Thank you for starting all of these threads Eugenia!

I only have one, called Ruby Slippers, that I got years ago. It looks like Dorothy's sparkling red shoes.

It's still going strong - I love it as a pedicure during the holiday season.

Yeah, I know... been there. I still remember when I bought my first Chanel NP bottle... Baby Blue back in 2003. I thought soo much about getting it... it seemed so expensive to me then. I was, as I'm still, addicted to np but then my most expensive bottles were from Revlon

and was so afraid I'd love my Chanel better and then be unable to keep having them... lucky me, almost 8 years and +70 bottles I still can!!

I have Rose Insolent on my toes! I still need to acquire Rouge Fatal and Rose Confidentiel...among many, many others.

I love Rose Insolent and Rouge Fatal, and I'm starting to like Rose Confidentiel more...in some lights it looks a bit more interesting and less granny on my toes.

I got Rouge Confidentiel last Saturday and cannot wait to try it out. A bit anxious, as a lot of people mentioned that it does not dry for them. Keeping my fingers crossed.

So far I have not met a Chanel polish I did not like

My faves are Paradoxal, Particuliere, Rouge Noir, Vendetta and Blue Satin. I can't wait to get Les Khakis as well!

I've never tried a Chanel polish. The price just seem so outrageous to me for a nail polish. Of course I'm not a "nail person" so that is likely part of my aversion. I actually started recently trying to get my nails healthier so I can start keeping them polished more. I have very weak, thin, peeling nails so I can't keep any length to them. I also have a lot of fingertip that extends past my nailbed so my nails look pretty crappy. I have tiny hands so they look pretty childish. I miss the days of having the time and money for artificials

I am wearing Paradoxal on my toes now. What do you suggest I wear for my manicure? Les Khakis?

I don't paint my nails all the time but I bought quite a number of Chanel polishes this year, because of the Chanel thread.

My favourite pink nail polish is Flamingo!

I have to get Rouge Fatal - its gorgeous! My favorite is Riviera. I wish I would have bought 2. So far, I only have 6. Rose Insolent is beautiful on. And, I am really glad that I got Steel.

Rouge Fatal is such an AMAZING red! I had to get a backup!

My first Chanel polish was a midnight blue colour with glitter in it (cannot for the life of me remember the name). I would spend the night at my best friend's house every Christmas, and her mom would always have a present for me under the tree along with a stocking in the morning. One year she gave me this deep glittery blue polish and a bottle of the polish remover to go with it. I think it was around '92 or '93! Vamp was soon to follow!

Edit to add: I tried to think back till my brain hurt, but I think it was called Night Sky, or Ciel de Nuit!

Right now I have Trapeze, Kaleidoscope, Particuliere, Paradoxal, Riviera, Nouvelle Vague, Mistral and on the way are Khaki Rose and Steel.

Nouvelle Vague looks pretty gross on me, I wish I could get my hands on Jade, that probably would've gone a lot better with my skintone.

A nice dark vampy colour for the fall!

I want to get Rouge Fatale n/p but it looks a lot like Color Club Fast Woman or Essie Fishnet Stockings. Can someone confirm or reject this theory?

I like Chanel np, but I'm on the fence for buying them.

My first Chanel was Gondola, which I love, but it had chunky bits in it. The second one I bought was Nouvelle Vague, and don't even get me started on the formula on that one - Buh!!

I also have Paradoxal, which I *love* (both color and the formula on it) and Cosmic Violine (also pretty).

I have a ton of nail polish so that makes me picky on what I buy and since Chanel costs almost $30 here (€ 22) I want to be sure it's a. not a dupe of a polish I already own and b. the formula on this one is decent (so I check out tons of reviews before I buy) because I want to make sure it's worth the pricetag.

Personally, I don't think the Khaki's were worth € 25 ($32 or so) per bottle so I skipped these. I got a chance to check them out since a friend of mine got samples for review, and I'm glad I've skipped them. Don't get me wrong, I think the colors are pretty, esp Khaki Vert, but I don't think they're worth the pricetag. I will be on the lookout for a dupe of Vert
