Chanel Rouge Noir- Mani of the Week & Chanel Coromandel, Chanel Pirate and Chanel Black Satin

I couldn’t find Chanel Rouge Noir in my neck of the woods in the stores or on Chanel.com. I missed out on picking it up earlier this year as I noted here, so I was muy happy when I found it while on vacation recently. The very nice SA told me it’s a staple color in that market so they usually always have it in stock.  I love these types of colors on my dark skin but I think it’s one of those universally flattering colors. There are also probably lots of very similar colors out there in the other brands. Essie Luxedo seen here comes to mind.  I’m wearing two coats in the pics above. The formula seemed the same as the Chanel polishes I bought at home.

The SA  also told me they were having a re-release of Chanel Pirate later in the week. I ended up getting Pirate along with two others I missed the first time around.
