Chanel Le Vernis - 111 Ballerina is engineered to deliver a salon-quality manicure experience from your home. Its performance is best realized through a specific application protocol, ensuring the polish adheres well, displays its full color vibrancy, and lasts as intended.
To achieve the signature lacquered finish and extended wear, follow these steps:
Prepare Your Nails: Start by moisturizing your cuticles with a product like L'HUILE CAMÉLIA and gently push them back. Ensure your nail surface is clean, dry, and degreased for optimal polish adhesion.
Apply Base Coat: Protect and smooth your nails by applying a thin layer of a base coat, such as LA BASE CAMÉLIA. This creates an even surface and prevents nail staining.
First Color Coat: Apply a single, thin coat of Chanel Le Vernis - 111 Ballerina. Use the flat, wide brush for precise coverage from cuticle to tip. Allow it to dry completely.
Second Color Coat: Apply a second thin coat of Le Vernis. This intensifies the color and builds up the rich, vibrant hue. Ensure each coat dries before applying the next to prevent smudging and promote evenness.
Seal with Top Coat: Accentuate the lacquered finish and enhance longevity by applying a top coat, like LE GEL COAT. This adds extra shine and forms a protective layer against chips and abrasion.
Thin Coats: Always apply thin, even coats. Thicker coats can lead to bubbling, slower drying times, and reduced longevity.
Cap the Bottle Tightly: After each use, ensure the bottle cap is screwed on tightly to prevent the polish from drying out.
Avoid Excessive Shaking: Roll the bottle gently between your palms instead of shaking to prevent air bubbles, which can cause an uneven finish.
With proper application, this Le Vernis provides a gorgeous, long-lasting manicure, making your nails a unique and stylish accent.
Getting started with your Chanel Le Vernis is straightforward, but proper nail preparation is key to a flawless, long-lasting manicure. Before applying the polish:
Clean Nails: Ensure your nails are free of any old polish, oils, or lotions. Use a nail polish remover to thoroughly clean and degrease the nail surface.
Cuticle Care: Gently push back your cuticles. Moisturizing them beforehand with a product like Chanel's L'HUILE CAMÉLIA can make this process easier and healthier for your nail beds.
Base Coat Application: Apply a thin, even layer of a protective base coat, such as Chanel's LA BASE CAMÉLIA. This not only protects your natural nail from staining but also creates a smooth surface for the color to adhere to, enhancing wear time.
Chanel Le Vernis is designed as part of a complete nail care ritual. For best results and maximum longevity, it is highly compatible and recommended to be used with other CHANEL nail products:
L'HUILE CAMÉLIA: For moisturizing and preparing cuticles.
LA BASE CAMÉLIA: As a protective and smoothing base coat.
LE GEL COAT: As a top coat to accentuate the lacquered finish and add extra protection.
Using these complementary products ensures the integrated formula works together to deliver optimal color, shine, and wear.
To maintain the quality of your Chanel Le Vernis and ensure its performance:
Storage: Store the nail polish in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. This helps prevent the formula from thickening or separating.
Seal Tightly: Always ensure the cap is securely tightened after each use. Exposure to air can cause the polish to dry out and thicken prematurely.
Cleaning the Brush: If the brush ever seems stiff, you can gently clean it with a little nail polish remover on a cotton pad, being careful not to get remover into the bottle.
