Chanel Ultra le Teint compact foundation powder review

chanel ultra le teint chanel foundation powder review

pictured: Chanel Ultra le Teint compact foundation powder /

I found a new foundation powder! When I do my makeup, I am very simple. I don’t like liquid foundation and I like to keep things as streamlined as possible. My routine consists of blush, foundation powder, eyeliner, and eye shadow if I am getting dressed up for something. Sometimes I will wear lipstick, but it is usually sheer and never cream. I prefer wearing chapstick on a daily basis.

Recently it came to my attention that the foundation powder I had been using had an ingredient in it that I didn’t want to put on my skin. So, I did some research and found Chanel had a foundation powder made from clean ingredients. Love that!

This was an easy transition since I am already a huge Chanel makeup fan. My blush is Chanel and most of my nail polish is Chanel; but you may already know that. haha

I have been using Chanel’s Ultra Le Teint foundation powder for one month now, and so far I love it. Although there is a pad which you can dampen and make the powder thick, I prefer keeping it dry and light by using a brush. It goes on evenly and provides the right amount of coverage I need for my skin. Love that!

Makeup I currently love from Chanel:

So, if you are looking for a fabulous foundation powder to either layer over liquid foundation or wear alone, like me, then give Chanel Ultra le Teint a try! I love it!

Dior nail polish spring 2024 review

The Dior spring 2024 nail polish collection is here, and it is the perfect amount of cheerfulness. Love!

For the spring 2024 season, Dior is giving us a happy and bright pink in the form of Dior Popeline nail polish. In addition, the rise of lavender/lilac nail polish strikes again as Dior gives us a beautiful hue in Dior Lilac Organza nail polish; which is already my favorite of the season. To add a little bit of fun to the season, Dior has added Dior Sequins top coat so we can extend the holiday sparkle on our nails throughout the warm season. Love that!

As we move into the upcoming spring season, it is nice to be able to add a little bit of sunshine to our nails, and the Dior spring 2024 nail polish collection is the perfect way to do that. I am in love with these cheerful hues! So, without further ado, here are the three nail polish colors from Dior for spring 2024. I used one base coat, two coats of color, and no top coat with the exception of Sequins in the last photo.

Both Lilac Organiza and Popeline are cream nail polishes which glide on smoothly without being streaky. As always, Dior nail polish is chip resistant, which I love. I am looking forward to wearing these colors during the spring 2024 season; especially Dior Lilac Organza nail polish, it’s fabulous.

Chanel nail polish winter 2024 review

Chanel Winter Glow

The Chanel nail polish winter 2024 collection is here! This is new. In the past, Chanel used to release their spring collection during the winter season, but in the past few years it has slowly crept into a March release. Now, Chanel has blessed us with a winter collection. Love that!

The “Winter Glow” collection from Chanel, for the winter 2024 season, includes a variety of makeup products, and two nail polish hues. The nail polish colors are not gel but have a gel-like or jelly finish. Instead of a cream or metallic, Skieuse and Glaciale are not opaque, they are see-through.

As you can see below, Chanel Skieuse nail polish is a pink color which glides on smoothly and provides a streak-free finish, but with two coats, you can still see my nails. The same goes for Chanel Glaciale nail polish, which is a white-like hue. For both colors I used one base coat and two coats of color.

If you are looking for an alternative to natural nails or clear nail polish, this is your season! You have a choice between two barely-there hues. If you prefer a more opaque manicure, stick with Chanel’s other colors and wait for spring.

What do you think of Chanel Winter Glow? Do you like these jelly-like polishes? Or are you waiting for spring?
