Dior has such pretty and vibrant colors for the summer 2018 season! The summer 2018 nail polish collection offers four bright hues; Blop, Wizz, Splash, and Pow. I purchased Blop, Splash, and Wizz for the summer season. I had trouble finding Pow in stock, and wasn’t sure I wanted to wear orange nail polish this season, so I passed. The other three colors are really pretty, and fit perfectly into the summer 2018 color palette. Love!

The nail polish hues from Dior’s summer 2018 beauty collection are part of their gel shine and long-wear collection. They are all really strong polishes. I love how chip resistant they are! This is important during the summer months when we are all active; and nail polish tends to chip more easily. These will be great polishes for the active summer since we won’t have to worry about chips! Love that!

If you aren’t familiar with Dior nail polish, the application brush makes it easy to paint your nails. It offers medium thickness and a flat silhouette, so the nail polish covers more nail with each stroke. This makes nail painting go by quickly! All of these polishes offer a high shine, and a cream polish finish which applies evenly, without streaking. So, without further ado, here are the three colors I love from the Dior summer 2018 nail polish collection!

Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Blop

This is Dior Blop nail polish from the summer 2018 collection. It looks like a light navy blue in these photos. That is also the color is appears to be when indoors. In outdoor light, Dior Blop takes on more of a violet hue. This polish definitely has purple undertones, which makes it a fun blue to pair with 2018’s color of the year; Ultra Violet.

I tested out Dior Blop nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. It offered an even application without streaking, and beautiful color saturation. Since this is a gel, it does not need a top coat; it’s really strong on it’s own!

Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Wizz

Dior Wizz nail polish summer 2018

Dior Wizz nail polish is the coral of the summer! There are very slight sparkles in this polish giving it some dimension. If you prefer classic nail polish colors, this is a fun hue for the summer which offers both fashion-forward, and classic styling. My Mom has already taken this bottle away from me. She loved the color!

I tested out Dior Wizz nail polish with one base coat and two coats of color. Again, it did not need a top coat since it’s a gel. This is a really pretty, classic hue which can be worn for many summers to come; if you don’t use up the bottle before then! haha

Dior nail polish summer 2018: Dior Splash

Well, if you have been following along for awhile, you already guessed this was my favorite color from the Dior nail polish summer 2018 collection! I love the bright, oceanic blue. It’s bright, fun, and plays well with the summer 2018 color palette. This will be the color I reach for the most often this summer season. Love it!

I tested out Dior Splash nail polish with one base coat, and two coats of color. It offered high shine, a beautiful hue, and it stole my heart. I’m looking forward to wearing this summer hue all season long!

Which color is your favorite?

There were so many pretty nail polish hues this past year, many of which are still relevant for the upcoming new year. I loved so many colors in 2017, but these are my favorite ten nail polish hues from this past year.

Diorific Emerald nail polish from the Dior Holiday 2017 collection

J’Adore Dior! Ah Dior! Why are you so fabulous?! Diorific Emerald nail polish is an earth-shattering, sparkling holiday green nail polish; unlike any other green polish out there for the holiday season. The entire Dior holiday 2017 nail polish collection is absolutely amazing.

I would have purchased all four colors, but I couldn’t justify repeating hues I already had in my nail arsenal for such a short season. But this green! Dior Emerald is worth every penny; and more!

The photo above shows Diorific Emerald nail polish against a green lawn, so you can see how the color plays against green. The photo below is set against my usual pool water background; and the polish appears to take on more of a blue hue. Emerald by Dior is a true blue-green hue which captures the colors it is around. It may look more blue in one light, and more green in another.

Diorific Emerald nail polish has teeny-tiny sparkles which catch the light and make the polish shine. It is a festive green which is easy to wear with the season’s color palette. This is the perfect nail polish to wear on a daily basis since it doesn’t scream “party!” yet still exudes a festive, holiday vibe. Love that!

I tested out Diorific Emerald nail polish is one base coat, and two coats of color. I did not use a top coat. Dior nail polish tends to be long lasting, so I didn’t feel the need to use a top coat. Two coats of color was perfect. It is not a cream polish, so Emerald by Dior doesn’t streak. It applies smoothly and leaves a shimmering, solid color. My only complaint is the Diorific application brush. I prefer the regular Dior nail polish brush which is better balanced. The Diorific application brush is too short, and the handle is awkward. Applying this nail polish is a chore; but I do it because the color is so fabulous!

You can find Diorific Emerald nail polish for holiday 2017 season online here.
