Chanel Le Vernis in Paradoxal
WHAT IT IS:
A purple nail polish that's a Chanel best-seller
HOW IT LOOKS:
It's a gray-tinged eggplant with a flickering iridescent finish.
WHY WE LIKE IT:
The color is rich and glossy, and the tiny bits of shimmer make it more glamorous than edgy. It does not contain DBP, toulene, or formaldehyde.
