Chanel
Black Satin 219 LE US version with shimmer – the BlackSatin 219 available today is from the standard collection and was first
released in 2006. The Black Satin in EU and the US is the same – BUT there were
for a short period of time a LE US version with shimmer, and thanks to Fingers from Fingers Polish Mania I now proudly present this in my collection – thanks a lot for this
lovely swap!
The US LE Black Satin is black, but unlike
the normal pure black creme version, the LE has a subtle shimmer.
One coat could be enough, but here you see
2 without a top coat. The finish is shiny and amazing, and the dry time is
good.
Chanel Black Satin 219 LE USA
version med shimmer – den BlackSatin 219 der kan købes I dag er fra standard sortimentet
og blev første gang solgt i 2006. I dag er Black Satin den samme i såvel USA
som i resten af verden – MEN der var en kort overgang en LE US version, der
havde et let shimmer, og den har jeg takket være Fingers fra FingersPolish Mania fået fat i, og kan nu stolt vise den i min samling – tusind tak for
denne dejlige swap!
USA
LE Black Satin er sort, men i modsætning til den normale cremelak version, har LE versionen et diskret shimmer.
Et
lag kan være nok, men her ser du to lag uden topak, og dens finish er helt
fantastisk og skinnende, og tørretiden er god!- og hvordan man ser forskel ved at se på etiketterne...
The front is pretty much the same on both versions...
Forsiden er faktisk ens på de to versioner...
But on the back of the LE US version (to the left) it says: "Made in USA" - the normal version looks like the one to the right (except for the 3 tester lines)...
Men LE USA versionen ser ud som den til venstre der står tydeligt at den er "Made in USA" - den normale version ligner den til højre med angivelse af såvel Paris og New York (bortset fra de 3 linier om at den er en tester)...
And finally a comparison with other more or less black Chanel polishes, click on the photo for a large size...
Og til sidst en sammenligning med andre mere eller mindre sorte Chanel lakker, klik på fotoet for at se en større version...
Wooo, epic win, Chanel, epic win!
SvarSletEpic win indeed - I am so grateful to have it thanks to Fingers :)
SletOh wow, Chanel made much more blacks than I imagined! :)
SvarSletOh my dear friend and Chanel Virgin, you would be amazed ;)
SletHAHAHA Chanel virgin~!
Slet*whispering* she is, but I'm trying to change that ;)
SletVery cool I have Steel as well! I thought this was 2006 ish-so when my post comes out at least I got that part right! I'm so happy to have helped you get a polish you love. I love doing stuff like that!!! I'm so glad you love it and now have a smile on your Chanel loving face!
SvarSletThanks once again - I was so happy when you contacted me :)
SletI suspect it was a LE release in 2006 in the US when it was released in Europe, and then it came back to the US as the "standard" version - but it did indeed put a smile on my Chanel loving face :D
It is lovely.
SvarSletEspecially when you are a nerd like me :)
SletSuch a beautiful black! :)
SvarSlet~ Yun
It is indeed beautiful!
SletVery informative! I went through a brief Chanel phase but never got any version Black Satin.
SvarSletI'm so pleased you think so, there are so much incorrect and/or confusing information floating when you google it :)
SletOhh, a lot of black! Beautiful!
SvarSletYes, a lot of black gorgeousness :)
SletHmm.. don't know which version is better, but after all I'm not any fan of Chanel, I just have one and it was a present from my bf :)
SvarSletWell, I don't know either - I love them both, but this one is a special star in my collection :)
SletI love the shimmer in this! It is really pretty!
SvarSletIt is very pretty indeed :)
SletThis is beautiful on you! Great comparisons :)
SvarSletI'm so pleased you think so, thank you so much :)
Sleti'm proud owner or this polish, europe version ;)
SvarSletlove it, it's old but the formula is still great :D
It is such a wonderful pure and pitch black - I love it so much - or rather, I love both versions so much :)
SletOh, you got it! It really IS very beautiful :)
SvarSletIndeed I did, I'm such a lucky girl :) - and yes, it really is <3
SletI love the US-version of Black Satin.
SvarSletKind regards,
