Chanel - Mimosa

Hello everyone,

These pictures were taken during my holidays in Romania...in august! You can guess the high level of housekeeping and sportive activity by the the length of my nails ... :D
The picture quality is not great, sorry about that.

So, Chanel Mimosa was the first Chanel and I've ever tried on! And this is thanks to my friend Ruxi who borrowed it to me. I really enjoyed wearing it, and also it was durng summer and I loved it!
The application is OK, no streaks at all , which is not often for a yellow! I don't remember exactly if I was wearing 2 or 3 coats? What's for sure, is that you'll need at least 2 coats for opacity, because the formula is quite on the thin side. But you know, I really loved this shimmery, bright yellow! I know that "Mimosa" is a more glamorous name, but I would rather call it Chanel Lemon! ;) Don't you think it really looks like lemon? I do :D




Thank you everyone for wathcing!

Big hugs!!!

Deborah Yellow Fiz and Kiko 269

Hello World and Happy Easter to you!

I've been very busy these days du to Easter preparations, so haven't had the time to do anything.
But today I did have some time, and I let myself go with polish reviewing ;)

Today I'll show you my newest brand descovery: Deborah! I've got this form Monoprix, as they had a promo (3 Deborah polishes for the price of 2). The first one I'll swatch here is Yellow Fiz.

It's a really, really nice yellow cream, with nice formula, applying quite well (a bit streaky however on the first coat), very summerish!
Here I wear 2 coats of Deborah Yellow Fiz, no top coat:








And then I've decided to add Kiko 269 on top! Kiko 269 is a glittery yellow sheer base polish, which is excellent for layering (only..). I won't show it by itself, as it is really, really sheer. But look at that great effect over Deborah Yellow fiz!
I've made one coat over my thumb, index and ring:




 

 And then all over the 5 fingers:






 And because I couldn't stop here, I've added another coat, this time of China Glaze Black mesh! Such a great contrast! Leopard like ;)
