Dior Nail Polish
Today I have swatches of Dior’s new summer polishes. These are part of the Electric Tropics Collection, and there’s a very bright orange and a very bright pink. What really made these have-to-buys for me is the bottle-it’s tinted orange or pink depending on the color, and the packaging is sort of ravishing.
Zoya’s Zara is an older Zoya polish I ordered as part of their Facebook promotion. It’s a pinkish medium lavender with strong gold shimmer. I thought it would be a perfect test for Dior’s Rock Coat!
Dior’s Rock Your Nails Collection is up on Nordstrom’s website now-there has been a lot of anticipation for this one, particularly for the Rock Coat smoky top coat. Rock Coat is sheer enough to let your base color show through, and it’s the only sheer topcoat I know of that can darken your nail color. There’s so many sparkly or glittery topcoats that I was really looking forward to this one, since it offers a different kind of effect-swatches coming up!

Dior’s Spring 2011 collection is heavy on grey, and there are two new nail polishes in grey and pink. They’re already available on Nordstrom.com, and they say that they’re Nordstrom exclusives. I’ve been happy with the recent Dior nail polishes, including the big wide brush, so I’ve been looking forward to trying out these new colors. I have swatches and a few comparisons coming up.

Dior Aztec Chocolate says it’s an online exclusive on Sephora.com, and it does seem to be a Sephora exclusive – I haven’t seen it anywhere else. A lot of people have talked about how it’s similar to Dior’s Lemon Balm, which was a limited edition color and only available at Nordstrom last year. Both of these colors are very complex blends of purple and brown with tiny shimmer in gold, green and red. They’re both really pretty, and I have swatches and a comparison.

I recently picked up Dior Timeless Gold in an order from Sephora, where it’s called Gold Revolution. When you actually get it unpacked, though, the box says Timeless Gold, just like everywhere else. It’s a beautiful metallic silverish gold, with heavy grey undertones. I decided to see how it compares to some other recent foil-y metallics.
