Chanel Orient spring 2004 swatches - vintage

Chanel Orient 133 – is from spring 2004. Looking at the names and numbers I am guessing it might have been released together with Bengal 145 and India 137, also from 2004.

Orient is a burnt red with a gorgeous shimmer and the finish is extremely shiny – even compared with the normally beautifully shiny finish from Chanel. It’s a little bit on the sheer side, but 2 coats will be enough, if you ever find this beauty!

Do you like Orient..?

Chanel Bengal 135 spring 2004 swatches - vintage

Chanel Bengal 145 – is from spring 2004. Looking at the names and numbers I am guessing it might have been released together with Orient 133 and India 137, also from 2004.

Bengal is a fairly sheer, peachy coral with a gorgeous shimmer – and here you see 3 coats without a top coat.

Not the best color for my skin tone!

What do you think of Bengal..?

Chanel India 137 spring 2004 swatches - vintage - Collaboration Saturday

My friend Elena from PicturedTinsel and I have new swatches prepared for you, it's time for Collaboration Saturday!

I am showing:

Chanel India 137 – is from spring 2004, and I am happy to have found this rare one used/pre-owned. Looking at the names and numbers I am guessing! that it might have been released together with Bengal 145 and Orient 133, also from 2004.

India is a muted dusty antique rose with a burnt coral hue and a very interesting shimmer and silver micro glitters. You see two easy coats without a top coat.

What do you think of India - the polish of course ;)
I don't know what Elena is showing this Saturday - I'll have a look :)
