Chanel Nail Enamel Collection SS 2012

Chanel Nail Enamel Collection SS 2012

There has appeared some information about a mini-collection of nail enamels created by Chanel for the Spring-Summer 2012 collection. We expect the charming trio of colors!
We adore Chanel enamels not only because of their quality. It is good that they are available for each season not in large collections of twelve or more shades, but mostly as well-balanced and trendy couples or trios. Because if we count how many times a year we use a new nail enamel, the quantity will turn out to be not so impressive. It seems that each new shade should be “to the point”. Therefore we highly recommend to be guided by Chanel collections while choosing a color. They leave no room for a mistake.
Despite the fact that not all Holiday collections have appeared on the shelves, the ideas for the spring should also be considered. Since September Fashion Weeks have already taken place (and they were targeted at the Spring-Summer 2012 season), the new items have received their first portion of undivided attention.
Chanel is preparing a new charming trio for the spring. The three caramel shades are called “April”, “May”, and “June”. It is the color of berry jam, soft pink shade, and the pastel shades of apricot. The so-called “June” shade (apricot) was at once assessed by the experts as the most striking novelty of the coming season.
Enamels will go on sale in January 2012. And you are inevitably longing for the summer the moment you see them!

Wine shades in matte or gloosy finish are “in” this season, be it fashion or makeup. The shiny,rich look of enamoring burgundy lips was first noticed at the Gucci show this year. The Black Honey Almost Lipstick from Clinique is a great pick if you want it to be too glossy. The blackened raisin look is a stunning choice for every complexion.
Bold Brows

Naturally thick brows have made a come back again this season. From city streets to runways, you can see them making an impact everywhere, however do not interpret “natural” brows to mean unkempt or unruly brows. Be sure to have nicely shaped brows. You can add a dab of vaseline or apply eyebrow gel to have strong, attractive brows. Use a pencil that is just one shade darker than the natural shade of your brows, in case you have sparse brows.
Gold Eye Shadow

Eye shadow is another important aspect of flaunting ravishing eyes. Slight strokes of metallic shades can work just perfect for a hot smokey eye look for the evening or the daytime. But be sure to wear them subtly. Don’t overdo them. You may even add on a light-handed stroke of your eye shadow to your lips and cheeks for a better effect overall. Aqua and plum eye shadows also look pretty chic.
Juicy Color Pops

Okay, juicy pops are usually a thing of summers but there’s a no rule, right? Citrus lipsticks are very much the hot trends this fall. It may be a red eye shadow or tangerine lips, a slight hint of juicy pops of color can brighten your look to a great extent. You may try Neon Orange lipstick from MAC to achieve this effect.
Nail Nudity

Nude nails look sexy, simple, and sophisticated, all at the same time. For longer nails, go for matte finish; shorter nails will be better complimented with glossy nude shades. Essie Nail Polish has some great choices when it comes to selecting the nude nail color. Priced at less than $5 per nail shade, there is nothing that can beat the appeal of this nail color brand.
