The Day in Beauty Vol. 14: The Newly Reformulated Chanel Le Vernis Nail Lacquers, Mythical Brow Genies, My New Favorite Necklace by Misa Jewelry, and Waffles at the Witching Hour - Makeup and Beauty Blog
If there were such a affair as an countenance genie that would grant three eyebrow-related wishes, commencement of all, that would exist AWESOME, and 2d, I'd wish for the following…
1. For the super-skinny forehead tendency of the '90s to have never happened, fifty-fifty if information technology risked messing with the space-time continuum, considering information technology would save literally millions of brow hairs from being plucked away into oblivion… I'd be like the John Connor of eyebrows.
2. To merely wake upwardly i morn and accept my brows look exactly like Kiera Knightly'south in this Chanel advertising, without having to do whatever of the, you know, actual work.
Sooo much brow envy correct at this moment. You don't even know. These are pretty much my dream brows, le sigh…
3) A stack of assistant pancakes and a large vanilla shake, because I can't recollect of a third brow-related wish, and I am So HUNGRY RIGHT MEOW.
New Chanel Le Vernis
Now, can we accept a moment to redirect our eyes abroad from Kiera'southward amazing brows to focus on these nail polishes for a second? — because they deserve some sweet, sweet, lovin'.
These cuties are five of the 15 recently relaunched Chanel Le Vernis smash polishes ($28 each)?
All I have to say is wow!
Chanel completely revamped the formula, which is now billed as long-wearing and five-gratuitous (no dibutyl phthalate, toluene, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin or camphor), and the new brilliantly shiny, sleeky, gel-like cease reminds me of Seche Vite acme coat.
The new line of 15 shades includes old favorites like Vamp and Particuliere, aslope some new colors.
Here'due south a quick swatchy-poo of the five shades I have…
I asked Tabs for his professional opinion on which one I should wear for a mani, and he picked flossy ruby hot pink Camelia, a decision he relayed to me telepathically, sending his kitty thoughts into my heed.
Yeah, we've reached that point in our relationship. True cat ladies, I know that you know what I'k talking well-nigh (at least I think yous practice…or I've lost my damn mind, which is also a potent possibility).
The new formula's been a cakewalk to piece of work with. From the moment the castor touches the base of a nail up through the ends of my tippy-tip-tips, I get polish, consistent, even color. The cosmetic chemists who worked on this must've spent more than than a few luncheon hours shooting the sh*t over how to go the viscosity just right, because it's totally on indicate.
I feel like a single coat is enough for four of the five here (Pirate, Camelia, Garconne and Organdi), while Ballerina is ane of those purposefully sheer shades that probably needs more layers, depending on how yous want to wear it.
It hasn't been long plenty to tell for sure, but my guess is that these are going to terminal at to the lowest degree every bit long every bit other high-end gel-like polishes (Deborah Lippmann comes to mind). After two full days and much typing, some dish washing and some middle-of-the-night cooking (!), the mani I did with two coats of Camelia, forth with a base and acme glaze, still looks new and fresh.
Really liking these and so far…
Branching out
Here'southward Camelia, past the way, with my new favorite necklace, the Co-operative Necklace by Misa Jewelry, which I've been wearing every day since Valentine's. 🙂
Waffles in the wee hours
So, yeah, about that middle-of-the-night cooking… I was down in my kitchen last nighttime at 3:30 a.m. making waffles, and I don't know if that's an early sign of labor, or if it'southward just regular hunger, merely I've been waking up lately in the wee hours ravenous with a loud and extremely rumbly tummy.
The first dark it happened, I just let my stomach growl. 2nd night, I tried to fall back to sleep, but I just couldn't. The rumbling was So LOUD, like that sudden screech in scary movies, so I got up, waddled downstairs to the kitchen, toasted two frozen waffles and slathered them with peanut butter and raisins (don't knock information technology 'til you try it). Then, I washed everything downwardly with a tall glass of warm milk and went dorsum to bed.
Maybe this is BG's way of carbo-loading earlier she makes the trip out of Chez Mama?
Only fourth dimension will tell…
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,
Karen
P.S. TGIF! 🙂
