NOTD // Dior Vernis 537 Riviera

Photobucket
Now, let me start by getting things clear first: 
I am nowhere near to being a beauty blogger, but ever since I removed my artificial nails, I can actually start using my nail polish stack. As you can see, the artificial nails completely ruined my actual nails and as if that weren't enough, I thought it would be a great idea to remove the fake nails myself - As in biting / tearing them off. Now, there's no need to tell you that it was the worst idea I've ever had (see that poor pinky of mine?), but the damage is done and there's isn't really something I can do about it ... Except for trying to hide it with some nail polish. So I thought it'd be nice to show you my nail polish from time to time, because I can change it as much as I want to from now on. #HappyDance

My mom had some gift vouchers left, so I stopped by Ici Paris XL today and got me this Dior nail polish. I also got a new Chanel polish, but I'll show you that one in one of my next posts. I must admit that this is my first Dior nail polish ever. I do read some beauty blogs from time to time and most of the bloggers are quite pleased with its quality and the result. I decided to go for the 537 Riviera, which is an bright orange / peachy / I don't really know kind of color. I've had it with this gloomy weather, so I decided to bring some Spring into my life myself. 

The Dior Vernis polishes have a large brush, which is a synonym to less stripes. Being a total loser at applying nail polish, this is always a plus. I added two coats - and totally smudging on my hands when I had to use my left hand to paint my right hand - and believe me, the result is still kinda okay if you know my relationship with nail polishes. I've also added a top and base coat, of course. The polish dried very quickly - Another plus, yay! I can't tell you about its durability yet, but if it's as good as everything else, I may have found myself a new favorite nail polish brand! 

P.S.: Excusez-moi for the tired face. The only thing I did this week was preparing my internship and teaching a bunch of teenagers English and history. Only five weeks to go, hooray! Now, the kids I have to teach to are quite attentive and co-operative, I must say, but it's still a very demanding job. Teachers have gained my eternal respect from now on.

  9. Het is een prachtige kleur. Haal je een flesje Vitry Nail Repair Treatement bij de apotheek. Als je geluk hebt; krijg je mss een sample. Ik gebruik die nu ook na het verwijderen van mijn kunstnagels en het is een klein wonder middel! ;)
