It's indisputable: Chanel nail polishes are among some of the most iconic and best in the world. You'll find a bottle of Rouge Noir in every Who What Wear UK editor's home, and our beauty team basically collect the limited edition nail polishes that Chanel launches seasonally.
However, if there is one Chanel nail polish that I reach for time and time again, it's Ballerina. Whatever the season, whatever the occasion, Ballerina has been my ride-or-die nail polish that sees me through anything and everything.
What makes it so special? The sheer pink hue adds a veil of glow to the nails, subtly brightening with a glossy lacquer. One coat ensures hands look manicured, while a couple of coats gives a milkier effect that flatters any skin tone. I rarely finish any nail polish, but I've been through several bottles of Ballerina. It's by far the best sheer pink nail polish around.
Selena Gomez with Chanel Ballerina Nail Polish
In fact, it was the nail colour of choice for Selena Gomez's engagement manicure above. But she's not the only celebrity who loves it. You'll often spot top nail techs calling on this versatile shade for their celebrity clientele too for red carpets. And if its good enough for them, it's good enough for me.

Simone Ashley with Chanel Ballerina Nail Polish
As Simone Ashley proves above, Ballerina suits every skin tone and instantly makes your nails look neat. Think of it as a skin tint for your nails.
Whatever your nail length or shape, a couple coats of Ballerina just elevates your manicure even further.
Recently, I had a manicure with Georgia Rae (Who was responsible for Sofia Richie Grainge's chic wedding weekend nails) and we landed on Ballerina above. This is three coats, which bestows pretty milky pink gloss to the nails. Paired with the Chanel Le Gel Top Coat (£29), this lasted me a solid five days without chipping. She agrees that this is one of the classiest nail colours you can wear.
