Dior Liquorice

Možda ste primetile da u kolekciji uglavnom imam drogerijske i salonske brendove lakova za nokte, a high end brendove skoro i da nemam. To ne znači da mi se ponekada neki od takvih lakova ne svidi već samo mislim da su preskupi, ali kada neka od mojih internet-poznanica oglasi da prodaje HE lak ja obratim pažnju. Tako sam za daleko manje novca nego što bi to pod redovnim uslovima bio slučaj uspela da nabavim i ovaj prelepi raritet - Dior Liquorice.

You may have noticed that I mostly have drugstore and salon brands of nail polish in my collection and that high end brands are almost nonexistent here. That doesn't mean that I don't like some of those polishes, I just find them too expensive, but when some of my internet-acquaintances happen to sell their HE polishes I pay attention. That I how hard to find Dior Liquorice came to my possession.

Dior Liquorice/Réglisse (972) bio je deo ekskluzivne kolekcije za Nordstrom s proleća 2008. godine. Ovo je šljivasto-ljubičast lak ispunjen raskošnim šimerom zbog kog sam čekala sunčano vreme da nosim ovaj lak. U zatvorenom lak deluje tamno braon ili tamno ljubičasto, ali na direktnom svetlu šimer prosto bljesne i osvetli lak iznutra. Za razliku od većine mojih tamnih šimera, ovaj nema zacrnjene ivice već mu je ravnomerno svetla/tamna boja celom površinom. Plašila sam se da mi se zbog toga možda neće svideti koliko bih htela, ali sam ipak veoma zadovoljna kako mi stoji. Pošto je ovo polovan primerak nisam sigurna kakva mu je bila originalna konzistencija, ali sada je malo teža za rad. Lak nije gust, ali se ne nanosi ravnomerno. Računam da je to problem koji se da rešiti uz nekoliko kapi razređivača. Dva sloja su potrebna za punu boju. Slike su snimljene na suncu. Imam dva sloja laka i sloj IBD Air Dry nadlaka.

Dior Liquorice/Réglisse (972) was part of Nordstrom exclusive limited edition for spring 2008. This is a plum purple polish filled with rich shimmer that made me wait for sunny days to wear this polish. Indoors it looks dark brown or dark purple, but in direct light this shimmer becomes alive and lightens the polish from within. Unlike most of my dark shimmers, this one isn't blackened at the edges but keeps rather even lightness of colour over entire surface. I was afraid that because of that I might not like it as much as I wanted to, but I am very happy with how it looks on me. Since this is a second-hand bottle I am not sure what was its original formula like, but now it is a bit difficult to apply. Polish isn't thick, but it goes on unevenly. I guess that this issue can be sorted out with several drops of thinner. It takes two coats to get full colour. Photos were taken in sunlight. I have two coats of polish and a layer of IBD Air Dry top coat.
