Chanel Spring has started to trickle into stores in the US. Nordstrom should be receiving their items any day now and Neimans already has the product instore at counters (most of the items have arrived). Chanel.com just launched the spring items online. Of course I could not resist the three new Le Vernis Nail Colours in April, May and June – all cream non-shimmer shades with smooth rich coverage. Although these shades do not appear to be special or unique, I find that Chanel once again has mixed the perfect amount of color to create shades that are amazingly beautiful. Lined up together they remind me of a sunset.
April is a cream mauve plum. In the bottle it looks like almost reddish but it swatches with a hint of purple.
May is a baby soft pink. It’s a neutral-cool, similar to Melrose, but April is slightly warmer in undertone.
June is a soft pastel apricot cream. It’s a lighter brighter version of Miami Peach/Orange Fizz.
