CHANEL PARADOXAL SWATCHES & REVIEW

Before i 'met' Chanel Paradoxal 'personally', i thought it was really gorgeous. A part of me loved it coz it was Chanel (who doesn't like Chanel?), and another part of me loved it because its dark purple! I was hunting high and low for it and came to realize that it wasn't even been released in Malaysia yet! I went to Robinsons, Jusco MV, Parkson; The Spring etc and it turns out they did have the stock only they weren't allowed to sell them till mid Aug. I practically begged the person in KLIA to sell this to me and finally.. I 'met' Chanel Paradoxal. 
Initially i was excited about it (its my first Chanel!), but when i saw the bottle i was turned off because it didn't look as dark as its suppose to be:-( 
But when i applied it, i was like WOW! there goes my love at first sight again:-).

under artificial lighting.

The thing with this colour is that i can't really describe what the colour is. At different angling and lighting it projects different colours! Even the shimmers that can be seen in the bottle cant be seen at certain angling. Anyways, the colours i can conclude from this polish are:

• Dark Purple
• Lilac
• Dark Grey
• Blue
• Taupe
• and at some point deep red too!

Damn! no wonder its so expensive! Imagine you get 6 colours at the price of Rm 70 only! :-/.

Application wise i would say its easy to apply. Its a spot on pigmented polish that requires hardly 2 coats to have the perfect finish. It looks so creamy and thick that at one point it felt like i was having choc fudge on my nails (felt like licking it too. thank god im not tht crazy :-D) However i didn't like the brush much. Quite hard to apply with it. Drying time was good- like other high end polishes. 

Overall i think every year Chanel comes out with a limited edition polish that is for sure to be a hit (last year was Jade). This year, i think its this:-)

P/S- I'm not gonna rate this polish coz im gonna be bias. Everything is perfect but the brush and price:-)

With Lots of Love:
