Since my last update, I've remained in Nienburg, a charming town that, unfortunately, lacks the vibrant nail polish selection I crave. However, I can finally share with you my thoughts and detailed observations on Chanel Le Vernis 761 Vibration, accompanied by photographs taken during the sun-drenched days of summer. This review, arriving somewhat belatedly after New Year's Day, feels like a long-awaited reunion with a cherished beauty staple.
Unboxing and First Impressions: A Symphony of Shimmer
The iconic Chanel Le Vernis bottle, a testament to the brand's enduring elegance, holds the promise of luxurious color within. The familiar weighty glass, the sleek black cap, and the subtly embossed Chanel logo all contribute to an experience that transcends mere nail polish application. Pulling the cap reveals the brush, perfectly sized for effortless application, neither too wide nor too thin. It glides smoothly across the nail, distributing the polish evenly with minimal strokes.
First impressions of Vibration itself are captivating. It's not a simple shimmer; it's a complex interplay of light and shadow, a mesmerizing dance of finely milled particles that create a multi-dimensional effect. Described as a "vibrant purple" by some, it's more accurately a deep, rich plum with a significant dose of iridescent shimmer. Think of crushed amethyst, or the twilight sky just before the stars emerge – that's the closest I can come to capturing its ethereal beauty. In certain lights, it leans towards a deep burgundy, while in others, the purple undertones are more prominent. This chameleon-like quality is precisely what makes it so alluring.
Application and Texture: Effortless Elegance
The formula of Chanel Le Vernis 761 Vibration is, as expected, exceptional. It's neither too thick nor too thin, providing just the right amount of opacity for complete coverage in two coats. The first coat lays down smoothly, creating a beautiful, even base. The second coat deepens the color and intensifies the shimmer, revealing the full glory of Vibration’s multifaceted nature. I found no streaking or clumping, even without the use of a base coat (though I always recommend one for added protection and longevity). The brush itself is designed for precision, allowing for clean application even around the cuticles.
The drying time is relatively quick; each coat dries within a few minutes, allowing for a relatively swift manicure. However, for optimal durability, I recommend waiting a little longer between coats to ensure a chip-free finish. The final result is a smooth, glossy finish that feels luxurious to the touch. It's not a matte finish, nor is it overly glossy; it strikes a perfect balance, enhancing the inherent shimmer of the polish without being overly reflective.
