Dior Vernis Shadow

A quickie NOTD that I'm sure you've seen a million times. I bought this for myself as a gift when I had a successful midterm review. It is actually still available at retail price on Dior.com, so don't fall for the eBay prices.

Shadow is a deep purple with a pink shimmer throughout. I actually don't think I look that great in dark colors, but I didn't feel right topping this with glitter as it was just too pretty.  Two easy coats. At first, using the Dior brush made me feel like I didn't know how to paint my nails. But after the first coat, I was in love with the wide brush!

I know Diors are pricey, but this polish lasted for days and I was not kind to my hands. I don't wear gloves when I do the dishes or clean and I cook every night. When I go on vacation, I know I will be reaching for my Diors since the quality is just so great.  I took pictures in a ton of different lighting to show off the shimmer and how sometimes Shadow is a brighter purple.

 What do you think of dark colors? I'm not so sure I can pull them off, but I still wear them!
