Christian Louboutin has not one, but two nail polish collections for the spring 2016 season. The Christian Louboutin Hawaii Kawaii collection features two separate coffret’s; Collection I and Collection II.  I decided to go with the Christian Louboutin Hawaii Kawaii Collection I nail polish coffret for spring 2016 since it contained a fabulous bluish-green nail polish hue named Batignolles.

If you have been following along, you may have noticed I love Christian Louboutin nail polish after it is applied. I find the brushes to be too thin to paint with; it makes nail polish application awkward. After a few tries, I figured out how to use the brushes, and have found it worth the effort to use the thin brush since they result in beautiful nails. Since the special edition coffrets contain mini nail polish bottles instead of full size bottles, the brushes are even smaller! Ugh!

Don’t get me wrong, despite my annoyance with the thin applicator brush, I love how long lasting Christian Louboutin’s nail polishes are. I also love the color saturation! For spring 2016, Christian Louboutin has delivered on his two nail polish coffrets, giving nail polish fans the ultimate in color saturation, playful hues, and that Hawaiian vacation feeling! Love!

The Christian Louboutin Hawaii Kawaii Collection I nail polish coffret for spring 2016 offers three fabulous hues which instantly transport you to the beautiful Island of Kawaii. The coffret includes “Very Prive,” which is a dark, yet vibrant red nail polish hue that is sure to turn up the heat on warm spring nights, and summer days! The blue-green shade, which is my favorite, is “Batignolles.” The third nail polish color is “Miss Loubi” which is a very bright coral pink that would pair well with a pair of Pigalles.

Miss Loubi and Batignolles are definitely my favorite colors from Collection I. The pink in Collection II is too bright for my liking and I am not really a fan of black nail polish in the spring. I feel like Collection I is the perfect coffret for the season.

So far I have only tested out Batignolles, and it stands up to Christian Louboutin’s name! The nail polish is long lasting, and downright fabulous! I am looking forward to wearing this hue often in both the spring, and summer seasons. I am also looking forward to wearing Miss Loubi on warm days. It is such a fun coral hue! I feel like it will be perfect in the summer for beach days, warm evening parties, and general fun in the sun!

Charlotte Tilburry Kissing lipstick is one of my favorite lipsticks to wear. It is always moisturizing, long lasting, and available in fabulous colors which work perfectly with the current season’s color palette. For spring 2016, I love Charlotte Tilbury Kissing Kiss Chase lipstick. It is the perfect pinkish red for the warm weather season.

Spring 2016 is all about shades of pink, red, and blue. Designers are showing vivid hues, and classic pastels in their collections. This calls for an easy shade of pinkish red lipstick which blends well with all of these shades. Charlotte Tilbury Kissing Kiss Chase is the ideal pinkish red lipstick for the job!

Although I tend to reach for pink lipsticks, Kiss Chase from Charlotte Tilbury’s Kissing lipstick collection is the perfect red for someone like me who prefers pink lipstick. It isn’t too red, or bright, which makes it an easy red shade to wear. The pinkish undertones make it a great bridge from pink to red for those of us who are more into pink lipstick then red lipstick.

The Kissing collection by Charlotte Tilbury also happens to be long lasting. This is fabulous news; because who wants to constantly reapply their lipstick? Not me!

If you love Kiss Chase as much as I do, you can find it online here. For the entire Charlotte Tilbury Kissing collection, you can find it online here.

Dior Cruise nail polish is a fabulous new color from Dior’s summer 2016 beauty collection. This sparkly, pink hue is so pretty and perfect for summer 2016, love!

Pink nail polish is a hot beauty trend right now, and Dior Cruise nail polish for summer 2016 is a fabulous way to rock this trend right now, and into the summer season. The nail polish is a bright, vivid pink, filled with sparkles! Who doesn’t love sparkles 😉

Cruise by Dior is an easy nail polish color to wear on a daily basis. Pink nail polish is considered neutral, so it blends well with different beauty looks, and any color palette. It feels like a natural color to wear. Love that!

I tested out Dior Cruise nail polish for summer 2016 with one base coat, two coats of Cruise, and one top coat. The nail polish is incredibly long lasting. It lasted a full week. The reason I took it off was due to nail growth.

The application brush on Dior’s nail polish also needs a shout out. I love the application brush. It is on the thick side, yet it offers a flat design. This allows the nail polish to glide on easily, without a mess. The brush applies the polish without gaps, and the brush design keeps polish off the sides of my fingers. Love that!

Dior Cruise nail polish is a fun color to wear on warm sunny days. The sparkles catch the sun when I am outside, and of course, they shine! It makes the polish lighthearted, and fun; just like summer!

I absolutely adore Dior Cruise nail polish for summer 2016. This will be a great color for everyday wear; definitely a go-to neutral for the summer months. If you are looking for a fun, and fabulous, pink to wear this summer, Dior Cruise nail polish is your color!
