Dior Electric Blue - Swatches and Review

Okay, I am trying to branch out into more blues. When you have all your polishes lined up on shelves on the wall, it's pretty easy to see which colors are being neglected. Blues were just not getting any love. I like blue, but there aren't many blues that go as well with my skin tone as other colors. For instance, the "Tiffany blues," gorgeous as they are, look horrible on me.

What better way to dive right into the blue pool head first than with an in-your-face, BRIGHT electric blue? Yeah, that's what I thought, too!

Dior Electric Blue




So...may I present: DIOR Electric Blue from the Anselm Reyle Collection (from a collaboration with German artist Anselm Reyle.) This is a bright cobalt blue creme that applies like a typical Dior - like butter. Perfectly cut wide Dior brush makes it a dream to apply. Two coats to perfect opacity. Not sure how well I can really pull this one off, but that has more to do with ME and whether I'll have the confidence to pull if off than it does with the polish because it does work well with my skin tone.

Two coats of color with one coat of Poshe top coat for all photos.

The Dior Anselm Reyle Collection is still in *some* stores and a few of the colors, including Electric Blue, can be purchased online at Dior.com and retail for $23.00.


What do you think? Would you wear such a bright blue?
