Thursday, May 21st, 2009 Chanel Cosmic Violine: Nail Polish of the Day
Hope your having a wonderful Thursday! Today I'm bringing you one of Chanel's newest shades, Cosmic Violine, from the Celestial Lights collection. Described as a muted or dirty reddish brown loaded with gold, red, and pink glitter.
Maybe it's the dull finish, or just the fact this reddish brown shade should of been released late summer. Either way, it's not getting much love from nail polish lovers. But, I'm here to give it some love, because I really do like it. Come fall, it will be a different story and Cosmic Violine will be MIA.
The application was smooth and pigmented with only two applications. Check out the comparison swatch below.
Is Cosmic Violine unique? Yep. I really don't have an exact comparison to show you guys, it's that toned down finish that makes it different than the other red and brown's.
Have a wonderful night! TGIF tomorrow!

Hiya! I got this myself a week or two ago, not sure what to make of it. Definately not a summer color. I swatched it on one finger..idk. Maybe it'll grow on me? I'm sure, as you said, it's unique in its own way.. that's usually a good thing. Maybe applied over black it would look like Feu..

I so want this color. It's beautiful. I agree that it seems more of a late summer/Fall color but I want to wear it ASAP!

I think that this a nice color no matter the season. I'm not one to spurge on price-y Chanel polishes but I may think about getting this one.
