Excuse all the pics... I was trying to catch all the colors (bronze, gold and green). This color is phenomenal.... I haven't been a Chanel polish fan long but I am hook, line and sinker now!!

Such a crazy color for Chanel standards... I loooove it!
 
Hi gals!

I'm new to posting in this sub, but have collected a few Chanel polishes for awhile. Just got Peridot in the mail and it is sooooo fabulous that it caused me to stop lurking! It is such a beautiful gold (with the tiniest hint of green) at one angle, and then pure green when viewed from another angle...really like a scarab. I'm sure there will be tons of swatches posted but if my camera captures a good one, I'll post too.

Thanks for letting me share my excitement!

Welcome :o) Glad it took Peridot to bring you out of lurking lol

OH MY NERD! Beautiful!

DD with Vendetta on her toes and me with Khaki Vert
Also, even though it's not Chanel: Mani with YSL Turquoise Utopique and MAC Ocean Dip. I hope it's okay to post this in the Chanel NP subforum.:smile:

Tis ok. YSL and MAC are well loved here too. Cuteness@ you and your dd.

I got some icecream, I got some icecream....

First of all - OH EM GEE! These are the most beautiful Chanel colors I have ever seen, and they are each totally unique - the finish on them is just amazing. I'd honestly be really surprised if anyone finds an exact dupe for any of them. Even Quartz, which I had my doubts about, is stunning - that shimmery silver overlay is so beautiful and perfectly executed. I honestly can't say enough great things about this collection. L-O-Effing-V-E!

(Also got Rouge Shine in Monte Carlo)

So here's a quick and totally craptastic swatch:

(L-R) Peridot, Graphite, Quartz

I think I'm going to go all the way Rainman on this collection and definitely order backups.

Loving your haul,BS

(This is a result of me STILL testing out the camera, avoiding folding some clothes for Mum and spending time with my brother - whilst he washes his car, haha)

Okay, so pretty much, it was a beautiful day outside

Sooo, I took some photos whilst touching up my toes (Black Satin) and admiring my new favourite colour - Khaki Vert :smile: yayay (I sincerely apologise as I have not yet had the time to clean the excess polish off :P)

And alongside one of my new necklaces!

And here is a picture of my collection (minus KV).

I especially think Strong looks amazing in this one!

Okay, I am done. Sorry about the overload haha.

Your collection is killer, Sara.

Picked up Quartz and Peridot last night from NM's after a Fresh event. Also got the shimmery red glossimer w/ gold in it. Must take off polish and swatch today!

Jealous! My NM won't have it til July.
 
I'd go look at Quartz in person before you make a decision - it's a lot more multi-dimensional than any of the pics show. I thought it was going to just be a tan frost but the silver shimmer in it is so beautifully done - it's almost like an overlay.
 
^I think Graphite is the only must have. IMHO Peridot is pretty but not for everyone. Quartz to me is easily dupable.

I agree with itsanaddiction: I don't see Quartz as must have.

Here's a link to swatches and comparisons of the fall colors (she has the best pics!)

If I could only get one I would get Peridot. I could get more I would get all three.

Thanks ladies! Hopefully I can swatch it before I take the plunge! I recently bought Nars Desperado and wonder if it looks like Quartz. Although, Quartz seems more brown than gold. Hmm...

I didn't think I'd like Quartz but I ordered it anyway. I'm so glad I did. Your swatch makes it look fabulous!
