Chanel Or de Russie 327, Feu de Russie 347 and Nuit de Russie 357, Moscou coll. 2008

Today I’m showing the entire gorgeous and famous Moscou collection from fall 2008: Or de Russie 327, Feu de Russie 347 and Nuit de Russie 357 – they are affectionately nicknamed “The Russies”, and this collection is really sought after and if you want them, your wallet will cringe! 
The formula is a dream, and they are very opaque in one coat, but I'm showing them in tow!

Or de Russie 327:

Chanel Or de Russie 327 is a gorgeous blackened base with a beautiful golden shimmer, the result is olive gorgeousness.

Feu de Russie 347:

Chanel Feu de Russie 347 is a blackened base with gorgeous red shimmers that really stands out and makes my heart skip a beat, I love it!

Nuit de Russie 357:

Chanel Nuit de Russie 357 is a blackened base and the gorgeous blue shimmer gives me the illusion that it is dark blue. No matter what: It’s a stunner!

Oh, I thinks it's difficult to choose - and I love all of these "Russies" and am so happy to have them in my collection. But I like Feu de Russie 347 and Nuit de Russie 357 the best....
Do you like them?

Chanel Cherry 441 - 2008 - collaboration Saturday

Welcome to a new Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel!
Chanel Rose Cherry 441 is from 2008 and as far as I know it was an Asia exclusive. It’s a bright cherry pink jelly, very squishy and pretty and probably great for sandwiches. Two coats are enough for normal use – but because of my ridges I choose to show it in three easy coats – without a top coat. 

Do you like this squishy color?

Lets see what Elena have for us today!

Chanel Rose Tourbillon 139 swatches

Chanel Rose Tourbillon 139 is from 2008 and as far as I know an Asia exclusive. It is a pale pink with hints of coral and a slight touch of peach (and Blogger again made it way more vivid - even my fingers grrr) and it is loaded with beautiful flecks and shimmer. This is two easy coats without a top coat.

It's not the ideal color for me - maybe for you?

Chanel Haute Chocolat 247 and Perlé Rosée 257, 2008 Holiday coll. - Collaboration Saturday

Chanel Haute Chocolat 247 and Perlé Rosée 257 are from the 2008 Holiday collection, and I'm showing both in this version of Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel!

Haute Chocolat 247:

Haute Chocolat 247 is a rich and beautiful chocolate brown with a pretty and really visible golden shimmer. You see it in two easy coats without a top coat.
Haute Chocolat is among the very sought after Chanel's and the price has gone quite high, so I was lucky to get it anyhow...

Perlé Rosée 257:

Perlé Rosée 257 is not really pretty on me. It's a slightly rose-toned nude metallic with shimmer, and it is a little brush-strokey. Two coats are enough, but for these photos I applied three coats – no top coat.

What do you think - do you own any of them?
I wonder what Elena has for us today - let see, shall we?

Chanel Sun Gloss 443 and Rose Gloss 445 – 2008

Chanel is known to be a trend setter – and they made sheer glosses years back. Other brands made them popular in 2013 and called them tints etc.
These two are from 2008 and extremely delicate and discrete, they probably were meant to be used on the naked nails (not stained like mine) just as a light fresh-up of the natural nail or a French manicure - not as tints as such.

I’m showing them in two coats on the natural (stained) nail and over white – no top coat.

Sun Gloss 443:

Chanel Sun Gloss 443 is a super sheer and very slightly rose/pink tinted gloss with a delicate shimmer. Would be prettier on non stained nails!

Rose Gloss 445:

Chanel Rose Gloss 445 is a super sheer and slightly more pink tinted gloss than Sun Gloss and it doesn’t have any shimmer. It would build up in shade in more coats. Again – it would be prettier on non stained nails!

I hope you got an impression of these two in spite of my stained nails...
