Chanel Rêverie Parisienne: Tenderly 641, Désirio 643 and Paradisio 645, spring 2015 – Collaboration Saturday

In this Collaboration Saturday with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel I have the entire Chanel Rêverie Parisienne spring 2015 collection: Tenderly 641, Désirio 643 and Paradisio 645, the first Chanel collection this year.

Tenderly 641:

Chanel Tenderly 641 is a mushroom cream with a hint of mauve. It’s easy to work with, and I show it in 2 coats without a top coat.

Paradisio 645:

Chanel Paradiso 645 is a super pale mint with a subtle shimmer. The finish is pearlescent and prone to brushstrokes, and the dry time is slower than normal, so I must confess I’m disappointed with this one. You see it in 2 coats without a top coat, so at least it’s not sheer.

 Remember that even if there are brush strokes this photo is extremely sharp and super enlarged, so it's not THIS bad in person!

And last but not least my favorite Désirio 643:

Chanel Désiro 643 is a gorgeous magenta red with a super subtle pink and blue shimmer – I love it. It is super opaque in one coat, but this is 2 easy coats without a top coat.

My conclusion is: Tenderly is very elegant even if it isn't my kind of shade, Paradiso could have been pretty with a different finish and Désiro is just gorgeous, I love it!

Hean Wedding Garden collection swatches: 640, 641 and 649

Today I have 3 of the Hean Wedding Garden collection. Hean is a Polish polish brand (loved writing that LOL).

640 looks mint in the bottle, but on the nails it leans a little towards pastel blue, it’s very delicate and pretty and has a very subtle shimmer. This is 2 rich coats without a top coat.

641:

641 Is a pretty pastel blue leaning towards dove grey with a light silver shimmer, but not really visible in person on the nail. The formula is a bit on the thin side, a bit runny bit easy enough to mange. 2 coats would be OK for normal use, but I am showing it in 3 coats without a top coat.

649:

649 is a light sunny yellow (not pastel) with a fine silver shimmer, not really visible on the nail though. It is a bit on the sheer side, but easy enough to work with. This is 3 coats without a top coat, and the finish is lovely and shiny.

Do you have any Hean polishes - and how do you like them?

I’m impressed by the shiny finish and I like the delicate colors, but I’m not super impressed by the dry time, but most of us use a dry fast top coat anyhow...
