Chanel Coco Blue gradient

Hey, everyone!!
We recentely had a nice 2 weeks of 20% off at Sephora, and I just had to buy this nail polish, I had been craving for ages. So I got it at a more decent price.

This is a blue creme with blue shimmer, just lovely. And i loved the way it suited my skintone too. Although it chipped in two days, don't know if it was because of the polish or what, because I don't recall doing anything different than usually.

It applied nicely, but after two coats I still had some bald spots and I chose to leave it that way, because it wasn't that obvious.

I decided to do another gradient, since they've become a huge favourite of mine, with China Glaze Ray-diant.

Chanel - Mimosa

The other day I went by Sephora, and had the surprise to find that they sold Chanel Mimosa, and since I had a coupon for 20% off, I bought it. At 16€, insted of 21. They are also selling the new OPI Pirates of the Caribbean collection along with the silver shatter, so I bought the shatter too, and I am totally and completely loving it, it's the best of all the shatters - it goes well with every color, and it crackles just about the perfect amount.
So on to Chanel Mimosa - as I have said before I am not a fan of their brushes, I find it difficult to apply the polish evenly, but the formula is good, I can't say it's super for a polish that normally costs 21€, I think it could be better. It took 2 coats to get it opaque, but I am not entirely happy with it.
And to top it off I applied a coat of my new shatter which I absolutely ADORE!! I am just saying if you like shatter and don't have the money to buy all of them, this is the one to buy!! This one is the must have in my opinion, not the black one.
I also wanted to show you this cup I got at a fare we went to some weeks ago, it's got cats on it - I love cups with cats. And Mumu says Hi !

Chanel - Peche Nacrée

I had drooled over this one at Sephora, and my friend Mariana asked me if I wanted something in particular for my birthday and I asked for it. So this is it - it's a peachy shimmer as the name suggests, and it is so pretty, on me less pretty but I still like it. I find it to be a very girly colour.
Here are the photos - two coats and no top coat. I added a coat of Cracked Concrete.
I really like Chanel bottles, but I hate their brushes.

Chanel - Black Pearl

The name really says it all, this polish has the look of a tahitian black pearl. It's a grey base with dark green shimmer, which gives it that pearly finish, it is part of the three new shades that they introduced : Peche Nacrée, Blak Pearl and Pearl Drop. I am really wanting peche nacrée too.
This one looks a lot to the greener side in the bottle than on the nails. It is definitely not worth the 18 € I paid for it, but it is still very pretty. I think Sam from Fashion polish did a comparison with an opi. The application was great, I didn't really like the streaks, and I am not a fan of their brushes, I prefer OPI or Dior.
