Hello loves! Just wanted to share with you Chanel's new Spring 2013 makeup collection. Model Monica "Jac Jagaciak" looking gorgeous than ever in this ad campaign. I have yet to see this in stores but hearing about it everywhere online.

This collection is filled with peaches, pinks, beige and soft rosey shades. Definitely my type of colors. So far I am madly in love with the nail colours. To be specific "Emprise & Fracas". The good ones are almost worth the price! Another favorite is the blush color in "Frivole". Beautiful apricot peachy shade. You know I am obsessed w/ peaches & corals. Just can't justify the price tag yet. haha

Swatches can be checked out on a few of my favorite blog sites:

• Cafe Makeup
• Weekend Ramblings

Available for purchase on CHANEL.COM

ZOYA~ZOYA~ZOYA~

My "Free" Zoya polishes have finally arrived to me! yay~

I ordered 3 colors ( Edyta, Barbie, LuLu )

For those who are wondering the "FREE" part...
There was a huge promo on their FB fan page.
Where you get three FREE polishes...
all you have to do is pay for the shipping.
Which was only $6.95 ( that's it ! ) ^.^

I've heard great reviews about this line and
definitely wanted to try it one day.
This was a good offer for me to try it out
w/o costing me anything besides the shipping.

So far I am in love love love with their quality.
I have only tried one color ( EDYTA ) - Deep Green w/ gold metallic sheen.
It was SUPER DUPER opaque...
meaning... ONE COAT (minus base coat) was like ENOUGH! O.o
but of course I applied two coats. Then I applied top coat. (Seche Vite)

I also got Barbie ( bubblegum pink w/ slight sheen )
and LuLu (pale cream peach tone )

I can't wait till I try the other two...
soon as this one peels off!
Let's see how long it'll lasts...

have you tried any ZOYA polishes?
If so, share your thoughts.. :)


UPDATE (2/4/11) : I just posted pics of BARBIE below as well!

enjoy the photos below.

Chanel Spring collection 2010 "PARTICULIERE"

- I know I had a post about this previously but I just wanted to post the swatches of the nail on ME. I finally got my NAILS on this gorgeous color. I have to say it's simple chic and classy.

Quality > Quantity any day :)

sorry about the messy job, I actually had it on this whole week and this was my touch up coat for the photos hehe ^^ it lasted me alot longer than I expected. Esp when I am constantly washing my hands and doing dishes n etc. It's incredible.
Totally worth the $23!!!

New nail color ~

Finally got my nails on the OPI "lucky lucky Lavender" ( OPI Hong Kong Collection )

This color is so gorgeous! So natural yet bright and colorful too :)
Prety lavender/lilac color. Definitely different because I was in a huge mint green/turquiose phase. keke

I applied 3 coats just to be safe. Then applied Seche vite top coat ( BEST TOP COAT EVER! )
My nails never last due to my hands being immersed in water all day long. :( It'll chip any minute now. booooo~

My newest obsession ^.^

NAILS!!!! something I've never really been into.... but lately I have really got into a nail mode. Realized all those cheap polishes I've bought in the past were all waste of money. Quality really pays off in the end. I am so impressed how different they are. So I just got a new one by ESSIE - turquoise and caicos. Sooo pretty. Honestly I was in search of CHINA GLAZE's refresh mint but no where to be found. So I just settled with this one and I loved it. It's a little darker in shade compared to refresh mint but I like it alot. The picture below is my nails I did yesterday w/ the ESSIE turquoise and caicos. The rest are images I wanted to show you guys on the color swatches =)





** So I been doing alot of research on other colors similar to this one and came down to a list of my fav's that I am going to purchase next!

1) Essie - Mint Candy Apple

2) China Glaze - Refresh mint

3) OPI - Damone Roberts 1968
