chanel intemporel (l'intemporel de chanel )

intemporel is the only polish in chanel's spring collection, l'intemporel de chanel.


i could've easily skipped this one. it's not like my collection is lacking metallic silvers, but i couldn't resist it.

i really  like metallic silvers. for me, they are perfect party polishes (especially since i wear black most of the time, and need some extra sparkle). this one is no more difficult (nor easier) to use than the most of them, but with thin enough coats and quick hands, you can avoid a lot of brushstrokes. that being said, you have to be blind not to notice them, but, for me, they somehow even add to the charms, so i gave up trying to make it look as polished (pun kind of intended) as possible.

opi warm me up (mariah carey holiday)

after baby, please come home, i am showing another polish from opi's mariah carey holiday collection from back in 2013, and that is warm me up.

warm me up is described as a " deep brown/ black with a gold shimmer throughout." i am not really a brown person, but i love this one. the shade is this amazing chocolate hue with a perfect amount of fine silver glimmer that gives it a frost-like finish. this microshimmer can come alive as green and bronze in the sun.

formula is also perfect, a typical two-coater.
