Chanel le Vernis - Fortissimo (Blue Rhythm Collection 2015)

Oh la la, let's be posh today!

I plucked Chanel's Fortissimo from the drawer; it was lurking there in the dark and evading me for months already. It is the dark blue from the Blue Rhythm Collection by Chanel last year.
It looks like a fairly common dark blue with shimmer in the bottle BUT it is not so much so. Fortissimo is a crelly (more a jelly then a creme) with lit-from-within-shimmer! The first coat is not very pigmented and weirdly siropy, the second coat makes all the difference. The result is a glasslike dark blue with the blue shimmer.

The formula is very strange and like a siropy glue, you have to paint very slowly and allow drytime in between layers otherwise you'll end up with loads of bubbles........

Chanel Le Vernis- 665 Vibrato (Blue Rhythm Collection 2015)

The Blue Rhythm Collection, which is inspired by the spirit of jazz and celebrates the boldness of blue as Chanel states. 665 Vibrato is indeed a very bold (yet classy) and crisp blue creme: I love it!
This is three buttery coats of Vibrato and that is because I was wearing it for three or four days already (Zoya Anchor and Armor) so there was some slight tip wear.....and I had not taken any pictures of this gorgeous blue yet.....
So I slapped on an extra coat, topped it off with Hema fast drying top coat and there you go: crazy glossy!
Nothing more to say about this one, it's utter perfection <3

p.s. In the bottle Chanel Vibrato is very, very close to Cirque NYFW from the Metropolis Collection...but I haven't compared them on the nails yet.

Chanel - Le Vernis is it Matador or Ruby Slipper or Rouge Moire, or, or....: HELP ME!

DAY 7: (YEAH, I made it!) today I have a mystery polish for you ( and for me as well). It is a Chanel polish but I do not know the name.... I will do my best to describe the colour and than flood you with a bunch of pics.
The colour: it is a deep red with some berry tones in it, you could say it is a deep blood colour. And there is shimmer...loads of it: gold shimmer that you can see in the bottle in low light and some purplish fuschia shimmer you can see in more direct lighting. Together they give the polish a phenomenal depth and shine, it really smolders!

The formula was heavenly: like butter. I did three coats here and that was just to get the colour as deep and glowing as possible. The colour (whatever the name is) is b e a u t i f u l and I love it BIG time :-)

BUT if you have any thoughts about what Chanel colour this could be: PLEASE SHARE THEM! 
It would be lovely to know the name of this beauty! >thanks<
