The Dior Bird of Paradise collection for Summer 2013 recently arrived at all Dior counters in the United States. The Nail Lacquer Duo in Samba 001 was the first to catch my eye, naturally, and it is the only item from the Dior collection I have purchased thus far. I passed on the Bahia duo as it is more in line with the permanent range of Dior polishes. Just as with my Chanel Azure nail polish review, this post will be just as much a feature of this nail polish duo as it will be a comparison of the shades. There are similar colors on the market currently, so many of you have asked me if splurging on this duo was worth it. See my thoughts after the jump!
Hello, everyone! I'm back with another summer review, and this Laura Mercier video will most likely be my last for the season. I liked several individual items from other brands/collections but not enough to invest in just for the sake of filming a review, you know? I'm really sorry if you were looking forward to full NARS or Lancome reviews! Dior, Chanel, and Laura Mercier were the only collections I loved enough to splurge for.. I think it will be easy to see why. The LM products are so easy to use, very versatile. I like that the color can be played up, but the green is just as easily muted or smoked out with a coordinating dark shadow. All my make-up artist girlfriends loved the quick and easy results! Hope you enjoy, too <3
