Is That Particuliere You're Wearing?

... is the question the Chanel MUA artist asked me today. 

I was slightly smug to be able to tell him, that it wasn't. It was in fact Eyeko's new "Posh Polish" from the soon-to-be-launched SS10 polish collection.

I didn't ever manage to snag a bottle of the famous Particuliere shade, which started selling for silly prices on ebay after selling out fast... but the fact that this was mistaken for it by Chanel counter staff means they must be pretty similar.

My Eyeko parcel was a lovely surprise I recieved the other day, containing five new shades, which I'll show individually over the next few days...

Application wise Posh Polish has a fairly thick consistency, but applies well and gives reasonable coverage in one coat for those in a rush - two coats does ensure complete opaque coverage though, as shown above. Excuse the ding in the ring fingernail too - I was too impatient to remove from one nail and re-apply...  


These are available as a set of five polishes for £14 here.

I hate how Chanel polishes get so much hype and then sell for a mint on ebay - they're nice but not worth the inflated evil-bay prices!
Posh polish is gorgeous on you ♥

This colour looks so gorgeous! I've always thought Chanel polish is highly overrated. Love the look of the Tea Rose Polish.

Im not personally a fan of these kinds of shades (and therefore didnt understand the hype around Particuliere) but I LOVE that the Chanel MUA thought it was theirs XD I would have been incredibly smug too!
