Dior Black Sequins

Another "short and sweet" one this morning for you!

Dior Black Sequins. I'm slowly expanding my horizons. I would have NEVER worn black nail polish until recently and I still really don't wear a straight black creme or black matte. But this one is a great compromise for me. This isn't just your plain ole black. It's not even a plain black with silver shimmer.

Let's take a look, shall we?

Application was typical Dior. Smooth and easy. Two coats for opacity.

But what makes this one unique?

Let's take a closer look...



Dior Black Sequins (without top coat)


That's not silver shimmer - it's irregularly shaped small FLAKES!

And this next photo isn't very good as I've scratched the top coat, but it's the only one I took where you can see that it's not just a straight silver irregular flaky particle...do you see the blue??? Dior doesn't do anything "typical."

I just love it and other than the blacks I use for layering/underwear, I think this one might be the one I can wear alone!

What do you think? Do you have it? It's long discontinued, but still easily found on eBay for reasonable prices.



If you enjoyed this post, please take a second to "like" it! Thanks!

  1. I'm not into plain black polishes either, but this looks like a really nice compromise. I don't have it though. :)

  7. I also don't wear plain black cream - it does not look good on me. I need a blued black or a red black...but I could wear this. This is delightfully lovely!

  8. I usually dislike black nail polishes but this one takes the cake...wow! So plain and so sparkly at the same time.
    Must get it on my hands. Soon!
