    I never usually succumb to must-have or hyped-up makeup colours, but when I saw this at the Chanel counter in Boots, I decided to get it, especially as it seems to be sold-out everywhere else in...

    Totally worth the hype! Application is flawless although I find that I have to shake the bottle exceptionally vigorously otherwise it's a little too thick. The colour is amazing! I normally rotate...

    Oh! I wanted this one so much ever since I saw it on the promo pictures! The color is so unique and hard to define, yet it's very flattering for fair skintones. I can see how it will nicely go...

    I originally planned on purchasing Vendetta in the beginning, but after reading numerous reviews on Paradoxal I just had to have it. I was slightly concerned it might look unflattering against my...

    I tend to really like Chanel's polishes....Hate the high price, but sometimes I just have to spurge. I always get good wear and they always have good texture, so I guess I'm lucky. I have lots of...

    I don't understand the love of this polish. In the bottle, it is breathtaking, but the complexity of the color doesn't translate to the nail. To me, the color is flat on the nail with barely...

    I have had this on my toes for a week with no chipping. Looks great, wears great. I applied two coats with a quick dry topcoat.

    I loved the colour in the bottle -- it was a dark taupe with a lovely purple shimmer, but the shimmer didn't really translate on the nail unless the sunlight hit it full on, which was a waste. If...

    I picked up this polish as a reward for myself. I had seen the colour swatches and pictures online and thought it looked great. Paradoxal looks quite purpley in the bottle with gold sparkles. On my...

    J'adore this color. I got Particuliere and I loved it but it looked TERRIBLE on my skintone. Like the color of dead mouse. Not good. So I was excited to hear that Paradoxal was Particuliere's...

    Ugh. What a gorgeous color as others described. I also wish it flashed more like the bottle and was less flat looking IRL. However, my biggest gripe is the wear. Worn it twice now with gelous...

    This colour is worth the hype. The colour has been thoroughly analyzed and reviewed by others so I would say that this is such a modern polish that it has the power to update a wardrobe, summer or...

    The color is a great murky purple that keeps you guessing. While I think this is a great fall color, Paradoxal did not live up to my expectations. I was thinking that it had more subtle shimmer...

    I have an idea of how to dupe this. Layer Essie Main Squeeze (a sheer grey with lilac/violet shimmer) on top of American Apparel Mouse (a mid-tone taupe). It seems like it should make a reasonable...
