Chanel has repromoted Tendresse #507 Le Vernis in their Aquarelles de Chanel collection. Tendresse is a soft sheer pink that was originally released in Spring 2010 (see review and comparisons here). I had this put on last week and for some reason it turned out warmer and sheerer on my nails than I remembered. I haven’t worn this shade in quite some time, I thought perhaps mine had faded slightly, but when I saw new testers at the counter they seemed to be the same as mine is now. It matched my strawberry pink macaron perfectly.
Here it is with two coats. It’s a lovely feminine glossy natural sheer pink. Lasting power is fairly decent (lasted a full week with slight tip-wear). If I were to do this manicure over again, I would have asked for three coats.
I paired it last week with Morning Rose on the toes.
It’s an easily dupeable color, but I love that it applies smoothly without streaks and gives a subtle polished look. No complaints on my end. Most pale pinks tend to look extremely pale and almost cream colored on my fingers. Tendresse is perfect for me.
