Dior Lagoon

Today I have for you Dior Lagoon, which is a beautiful blue jelly! I think this is pretty HTF in the USA but you can still get it here in the UK on some sites. It's an amazing application (like almost all Dior) and has a beautiful glossy finish, even without topcoat (although I have applied topcoat here). I do have some tip wear but that's probably down to my impatience and not waiting until it's fully dried. Onto the pictures!

 



LOVE! The funny this about Dior (and Chanel and any other expensive polish) is that for a long time, you tell yourself that you're not going to buy those polishes because they're so much money. But once you start buying them, you look at prices and think "Actually that's not too bad of a price for that!" And then you realize you've gone a little bit crazy. But a lot of these polishes are totally worth it. If you see a polish that is LE but expensive that you LOVE, just get it. Otherwise, you're looking at ebay, where they are $70 and kicking yourself for not getting it when you could. Saying that, there are some amazing prices on ebay as well, so check that out too! Rant over.

Obligatory St Patrick's Manicure

Today is St Patrick's Day, therefore, I have to wear green nail polish. It's a rule. Maybe. I thought I'd try to do some nail art then I laughed at myself and remembered that I am not artistic at all. So I just grabbed butter London Tart with a Heart and slapped it on over Sinful Colors Rise and Shine and called it good enough. I can very much see the gold in Tart with a Heart but I couldn't capture it with my camera. On to the pictures!

My birthday was on Friday and I went into Birmingham with Gary. Selfridges has the outside of their store lit up for St Patrick's Day!




I hope you have a great day and can get some corned beef and cabbage. Unfortunately, I can't get it here and it makes me super sad.
