    I’ve worked for 4 years at a beauty store and so many customers would ask for gel polish that doesn’t need a lamp.. Had to explain every time it was still regular nail polish and they would never believe me because of that Chanel top coat.. (and some other brands that also call it a gel coat without it being gel) 🙃

      Yeah. And it sucks. And the worst paet is that these "gel" polishes are often no more grippy than other polishes and chip off just as easily.
      I got tired of doing my own nails and yesterday just did them at a salon with a gel polish, hope it lasts

      Also, Dior and Chanel have exact matching shades of nail polish to their lipstick shades. As someone who regularly wears pirate and 999, this is incredibly satisfying. Could I find this somewhere else? Yes, but I like the packaging and save more just getting it than I would taking the time to figuring it out otherwise.

      I used to buy Maybelline clear polish with UV reactive components two decades ago or three, and it was cheap and long-lasting. I doubt Maybelline was the first one to do it. Many brands today has the same type of product, -the question is only if the dior one is one of the best long-lasting polishes or if it's just 100% the name that makes people prefer it over other ones.- Apparently the old Dior Nail glow had a pinker glow unlike the more purple glow that's common for these, and that pinker glow is what the fans were in love with.

    I love that second “boring old lady” color. It’s such a nice neutral. Also most people using these expensive polishes are likely not painting their own nails. It’s more likely they have them at salons in bougie areas or people with that kind of money to spend buy them (because of the name and not the quality) and take them to the salon.

      I disagree. I use Dior nail polishes and I’m honestly considering transitioning to only a few good nail polish brands that will last me years. The Dior polishes I have are 15 years old and still PERFECT inside the bottle. They last forever on the nail too compared to other brands.
      I’m starting to realize that nail polish is plastic. Buying cheaper brands means throwing them out more often. More landfill material or pollutant. So buying a few staple colours in a brand that will last is my personal preference at this point.

      I think most of them were beautiful (loved the Dior darker red as well), no need to hate them just because they are expensive/designer names. I probably can't justify spending that kind of money on nail polish - but they were still beautiful.

For a lot of beginners, it’s more challenging to get a tidy look and clean line at the cuticle if you over-apply polish.

      @@heathermiller1425 one of the reasons was that Dior was all for bringing back a silhouette that was seen as restricting (ie, a cinched waist and full skirts with petticoats). This was the “new look” he introduced in 1947, which was a hark back to the Victorian era and the more (stereotypically)feminine silhouette that came along with it. Chanel didn’t like this, because she viewed it as backwards. She created clothes with a boxier silhouette that were meant to be more “utilitarian”. She wanted women to feel free in her clothing, rather than restricted. Essentially, both Dior and Chanel were at the helm of mid-late 20th century fashion, and they would be at odds just by the way they each interpreted femininity.

    The fact holo brand polishes are prettier, cheaper, better packaging, better glitters and finishes just shows that people who overspend on designer polish that just chips and washes off eventually is wild to me.

    The reason gel nail polish comes in an opaque bottle is not because of the lamp. It’s because it would cure in the bottle over time from being exposed to UV light in natural sunlight like from a window.

    Man some people in the chat need to chill, the company isn't going to get it's feelings hurt, but some random person who doesn't even wear Chanel and just likes those colors is going to hear "Karen colors", "it's giving old lady", and "eww it's so ugly" and feel bad about it, some people love neutrals, classic reds, and creme polishes, some people do like Chanel just as much as y'all like Holo Taco, hating on things just because they aren't for you isn't a good look no matter how much glitter and holo is on your nails

It' s ALL gone: _Dragon, Lotus Rouge, Barcelona Red, Flamme Rose..._ Now it' s a carrousel of discontinued shades and watery _Rouge Allure_ that wouldn' t pass a blind testing. If you used _Passion_ 20 years ago, you know what I mean.

    I would wear all these fancy colors! (I wouldn't pay for them though). Simply, I have been a fan since the eating polish cake days, since before Beyyyyn even showed his face days, and I am so in love with your polish line. I get excited every time new colors get released. I do have a few Holo Taco polishes in my collection! But, loving how a polish looks on screen, for me, is very different from loving how a polish looks on me. I am very particular about my style, and I honestly think these more "boring old lady" colors match my personal aesthetic more than the bright loud holo taco colors. I also use gels (real UV gels) because I'm too impatient to wait for drying time, and too messy to not have redos. Big fan of the Holo Taco brand and style, but would personally buy more neutral shades and colors for myself.
