I am hooked on Diorific nail polish! Golden by Dior from the Diorific nail polish collection, is a limited edition, sparkling gold nail color perfect for celebrating the holiday season.

Diorific Golden nail polish is a soft, sparkling gold color which is easy to wear with any color metal jewelry. The gold is a soft hue which blends well with silver, rose gold, and of course, yellow gold metals. This makes Golden by Dior perfect to wear not only during the holiday season, but throughout the winter season, and into spring; where metallic hues are an important fashion trend.

Dior nail polish is long lasting, and applies evenly. I tested Diorific Golden nail polish out with one base coat, and two coats of color. I ran out of my top coat, so no top coat! Without the top coat, Diorific Golden lasted a full week without chipping! My nails grew, which is why I took off the polish. Love that!

The holiday nail polish collection by Dior is flying off the shelves, and it is limited edition. If you love this color, you can find Diorific Golden nail polish in stock online here, and online here.

Happy holidays, and stay sparkly 😉

Essie Party on a Platform review

Essie Party on a Platform nail polish is a beautiful red color with slightly pink undertones. This classic red hue is part of Essie’s winter collection which is filled with on trend, and classic winter colors. Love it!

As with other Essie nail polishes, Party on a Platform is long lasting, and chip resistant. I was able to wear Essie Party on a Platform for a full week without getting any chips. The polish stayed chip free without the use of a top coat, I only used one base coat and two coats of color. I changed my nail color since my nails were starting to grow, and show. I love long lasting polish!

This is a fabulous color to wear now, and throughout the winter and holiday seasons. It will look amazing at holiday parties, on Christmas day, or New Years Eve with a sparkling top coat such as Essie Luxeffects. This would turn Party on a Platform into a festive, holiday mani!

You can find Essie Party on a Platform online here, and the Essie winter collection online here.
