I can understand the allure, though: the colors are pretty, and of course, it's Chanel.

There's a real trend towards punchy bright cremes at the moment, especially with Australian brands like Kit Cosmetics and Bloom, and the new OPI Brights is in the mail for me. So I think I might skip these.<BR/><BR/>I think that with other cosmetic items, like foundation and mascara, you can really see a difference with price. I can often by quite stingy, but you can take my NARS from my cold, dead hands. With nail polish, on the other hand, I think you can get truly great quality and innovative colour without the sticker shock. <BR/><BR/>That said, the purple is quite tempting...rachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8463573814677466428.post-10238840186945935212008-05-08T13:30:00.000-04:002008-05-08T13:30:00.000-04:00I am actually really excited for this.
