Chanel Fortissimo nail polish for fall 2015

Chanel Fortissimo nail polish is a beautiful navy blue hue from the Blue Rythm de Chanel beauty collection released for late fall 2015. This navy blue hue offers a rich color, and slight sparkles which are embedded into the nail polish. Love that!

Navy is a classic autumn hue. It acts as a neutral which can be used in place of chocolate brown or black. This makes Chanel Fortissimo nail polish a fabulous neutral tone which will blend well with fall’s color palette. Perfection.

Chanel Fortissimo is the darker of the two blue nail polish hues released by Chanel for late fall 2015. As part of the Blue Rythm de Chanel beauty collection, Chanel Fortissimo nail polish caters to the blue nail polish lover who needs the perfect shade for autumn.

I tested out Chanel Fortissimo nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. The color went on smoothly, and streak free. The sparkles appeared during application of the second coat; when the true color shines through.

Chanel Fortissimo nail polish was long lasting. This could be caused by this fabulous top coat I have become addicted to these past couple of months. My top coat review can be found here.

Chanel Fortissimo nail  polish lasted a full eight days before needing to be changed. The only reason it needed changing was because my nails grew. Love that!

As a blue nail polish fan, I was thrilled to see Chanel Fortissimo. This nail polish is a beautiful, classic navy blue which offers both depth, and a slight sparkle. It is a fabulous navy blue hue to keep around as a nail polish wardrobe staple. I am looking forward to wearing Chanel Fortissimo nail polish often this fall; as well as into many seasons to come!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit EDP review

One of my favorite fragrance notes is vanilla. So, when I first heard of LaVanila fragrances, I immediately purchased and reviewed their beautiful Vanilla Coconut fragrance for summer. After falling in love with Vanilla Coconut, I was hooked on the entire collection and had to try LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit!

Vanilla Grapefruit is my second fragrance from the LaVanila collection. It has a beautiful fruity gourmand scent which is both refreshingly crisp, and warm. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit eau de parfum offers a fruity gourmand combination of fragrance notes including Pink Grapefruit, Lime, Bergamot, Orange, Cedarwood, and Madagascar Vanilla.

This beautiful fragrance offers a warm base of Madagascar Vanilla which offers complex fruit layers on an unique blend of pure essential oils. LaVanila is one of the world’s first healthy fragrances; infusing natural technology from organic sugar cane alcohol; and skin-saving botanicals and antioxidants for a modern twist on the classic art of perfumery. Love!

I love the idea of natural perfume. Not only is the scent pure, real, and not from a lab, it does not leave potentially harmful chemicals on your skin which could be absorbed into your system.

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp is long lasting. The fragrance started off with a fruity zing laced in vanilla. As the day wore on, the vanilla lay softly in the background as different fruit notes cycled through detection. At the end of the day, there was a slight fruit scent laced in a woody vanilla base. Perfect fragrance experience for any weather; warm or cold. Love that!

LaVanila Vanilla Grapefruit edp rates five out of five stars!

LaVanila has a wide range of fragrance products which carry it’s fragrances; complimenting the eau de parfum collection. The collection includes deodorant, roller balls, and body butter.

LaVanilla’s Vanilla Grapefruit edp can be found online here. To read my review of LaVanilla’s Vanilla Coconut eau de parfum, please click here.


Chanel Vibrato nail polish for fall 2015 review

Chanel Vibrato is a beautiful new blue hue from Chanel’s late fall 2015 beauty collection; Blue Rythm de Chanel. This fabulous collection features two blue nail polishes, a blue eye quad, blue mascara, and complementing products which aid in creating a smokey eye look. Love that!

Since blue is my favorite color, I was thrilled to find out this collection would arrive in late fall. The two nail polish hues are a-ma-zing! Chanel Vibrato nail polish is a bright, blue hue which is roughly two shades darker than cobalt. It is a fabulous way to brighten up a dark, fall ensemble.

I tested out Chanel Vibrato nail polish with one base coat, two coats of color, and one top coat. Chanel Vibrato is a cream nail polish. It applied evenly and streak free. Perfection.

Chanel Vibrato nail polish lasted a full eight days before I needed to remove it due to nail growth. I would also like to credit this fabulous top coat for making the nail polish long lasting, shiny, and perfect.

The bright blue hue on Chanel Vibrato is a great way to add a little color to your fall wardrobe. Fall 2015 has a lot of dark hues, and traditional autumn hues.

Fall’s mix of browns, blacks, dark green, and dark reds, can fade into the background. With Chanel Vibrato nail polish, an outfit is given a little pop of color which makes the whole ensemble complete and beautiful.

I cannot wait to wear Chanel Vibrato nail polish now, and into fall. It is a beautiful blue color, and easy to wear on a daily basis. Love that!

The Blue Rythm de Chanel beauty collection for fall 2015 is limited edition and only available online here, and here.

Stat tuned! I will be reviewing Chanel Fortissimo nail polish from the Blue Rythm de Chanel beauty collection for late fall 2015 next week!
