Back to my review. It's the only polish in the last year of being a nail blogger that I have worn repeatedly since receiving it because it is just so stunning. It goes with absolutely everything and has, I like to think, a real sophistication to it. (Dark red feels so grown up). With two coats, at a glance from a distance you would probably think it black - closer up you can see the red tint to it. (As the name Rouge Noir suggests, it's a red black. Is black red a different colour?)
As you would expect (and hope) from a Chanel nail polish, it paints smoothly and has great pigment. With one coat it's a little bit streaky but you can see the red - two coats gives it the blackness and total opacity. It dries quickly and is so shiny! The photos below show just two coats, without a top coat.
Have you ever come across Chanel Rouge Noir? What do you think of it? Have you got a favourite red you like to wear?
Ooh it's gorgeous :)

My friend got this for her birthday, it really is stunning! And it looks beautiful on your nails <3 x x
ReplyDeleteYou'll be borrowing it from your friend then?! Thanks so much :)
DeleteRouge Noir was one of the first polishes I owned, back in the days when I had about three polishes! Nowadays I have over 350, but it's still one of my absolute favourites. Your swatches are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAw thanks! I'm so glad to add it to my collection...!
DeleteThat looks amazing. Probably one of the only swatches I've actually said wow to! I'm considering starting up my own blog and wanting to review nail varnishes and this just makes me want to do it even more!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Definitely start your own blog - I always like to find new blogs to read :)
