Chanel 591 Alchimie - Swatches and Review

Nothing to Disclose


Good evening! Tonight I have one of the new polishes from Chanel's Superstition Fall 2013 Collection - Alchimie, the only Limited Edition of the 3 new polishes in the collection.


Chanel 591 Alchimie


When I first saw the preview photos of this collection, I was pretty sure I'd want Elixir and Mysterious but that Alchimie would be too gold and too much like Peridot for me. Peridot really did not look good with my skin tone. So, I naturally I ended up with Alchimie and passed on the other two. You just never know until you see them in person or you see truly accurate swatches.

Alchimie is definitely not a Peridot dupe. (I would compare them, but I no longer have Peridot.) It's a really dimensional golden green, almost metallic, shimmer polish. No issues at all with formula or application. I used two coats and no top coat for the photos.
