I want all of those polishes except the green.

Does Chanel have a peach polish?

They had a midtone peach creme 539 June. 507 Tendresse was a buildable light peach jelly. 569 Emprise was a peach creme with silver subtle shimmer. 515 Pêche Nacrée was a glowy shimmery peach (came out with Black Pearl). 503 Inattendu was a kind of Barbie flesh (haha ew) colored peach crelly. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Chanel also had some polishes with peach in the name, but they were more pink/coral.

Great pics! Thanks!

thank you for your beautiful swatches

Thank you for all the beautiful pics! They look great on you! What do you think of the new formula?

Thank you for the beautiful pictures! They all look great...
Yes, tell us what you think of the formula.

Thank you! I am glad they are helpful. As far as the formula, I thought it was great. Turban was slightly thick for me (I prefer my polish on the thinner side of average so I can get close to my cuticles), but I thinned it out. The new brush fans out wider (but not in a paddle shape), which I like because you can get more coverage in one stroke. My brush for Émeraude wouldn't spread out when I put pressure on it, but none of my other brushes had that problem, so I must have gotten a poor brush. I could still polish fine though, I just had to do a bit of clean up. I have great wear with this formula. I use the Chanel base coat, and can get from 5 - 14 days with only tip wear -- but this was true for the old formula for me as well. I don't use Chanel top coat; I use Seche Vite. I didn't get any staining either -- not even from Émeraude.

Espadrilles is one of the most gorgeous reds I've seen in a long time; super super bright. I bought two.

Old thread but I finally picked up something from this collection. I got the quad. When I first tried, the colors just didn't scream summer to me at the time. I thought I would like it better for fall. I also got the sable eyeliner. It just popped when I swatched it. But now I see I forgot the green liner. As the display was dismantled and replaced by the fall displays, I had to search for everything. I must get this liner. I also bought Sirocco. I didn't think I needed another orange Chanel gloss as I bought a back up of Calypso when that was release and I have the sheer orange tint from a few summers ago that I love to layer over my orange By Terry lip stain. These are my go to orange shades for the summer. But one of the SAs recommended it and I was curious about how it compared to my faves. I got a bit more than I planned as I was just going to get the quad.

Espadrilles prooved a gorgeous orangeysh red .. But Turban is a pretty coralish strawberry Pink really worth trying. A nice hue, really.
