The Chanel Summertime collection include 3 nail polish shades "appealling to all of your summer colour cravings" :
"The pearly beige Island, shimmering bronze Delight and vibrant orange Holiday".
I've already reviewed Holiday (here), totally passed on Island and must confess that I wasn't convinced about Delight either. But curiosity got the best of me.
Delight is a very sparkly bronzey shimmer with a nice particles color range that applies like a dream, in almost one coat. I used two in the swatch below, no top coat :
I don't know about you but I'm not absolutely fond of it. That's why... I had to mattify it ;-) Here it is with Chanel Mat Velvet on top :
Overall :
I really love the matte version but I can't help but think it might not be worth the Chanel price tag... Would have loved something completely different for Summer this year. Maybe a Chanel neon, glitter or holo? One can only dream...
Like the matte version as well.
ReplyDeleteI like the color.

Not crazy about this one as-is, but the matte version looks like a beautiful, golden beach!
ReplyDeleteA neon, glitter, or holo from these guys would be so amazing.
I love both vesrions very much! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI don't know, Sam; I think it looks lovely on you, both versions. As to Chanel and neon, I don't know if I can see that happening anytime soon, but you never know, right?! But glitters...ahhhh, I have some oldies of theirs that are still relevant today and just gorgeous in their own right -- will be posting my swatches ... eventually!
ReplyDeletePretty colour! I like gold somethimes :-)
ReplyDeleteI am not a fan of gold polishes and to be honest this one doesn't look too special to pay so much money for it.
ReplyDeleteThis polish is beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI really love it!!
wonderful :)
ReplyDeleteThe matte version is so pretty!
ReplyDeletei love this color!!! its the only one i bought from the collection! i think it looks awesome on you!
ReplyDeleteThis is a gorgeous color but I agree it looks better matte.
ReplyDeleteOooo, the matte velvet version ROCKS! What do u think the difference is between that one and a regular matte top coat?
ReplyDeleteDelight is my favorite from this collection. I like it matte too, but to me it's gorgeous in all its sparkly deliciousness. It reminds me of a tropical sunset, just when the sun sinks into the sea. I just love bronze. But hey, taste is very personal and beyond reasoning. I like it on you too, both ways! Wait until it's midsummer, and give it another chance. Maybe it can grow on you! ;-)
ReplyDeleteInteresting, I have never thought to matte foil polishes but now I definitely have to try it out
ReplyDeletelove this. saw it today and was undecided whether to buy it or not...i'll be getting it.
ReplyDeletethough as for neons etc, chanel is a bit more classic and classy for that...which is what i like about theirs. if i want neon i'd buy cheaper...
