If you had the entire Dior Cosmopolite collection at your disposal could you resist creating nail designs with it? Me either. It all started with these swatches. The colours looked so great together that I started creating different designs with them. I was aiming for elegant and edgy nail designs that would highlight the beauty of each colour. Instead of patterns overload, I wanted to translate the true Dior spirit in each designs by keeping it minimal yet a bit complicated, placing the main focus on perfection of the lines. Scroll down to see them all!
As for the main design, I went for an elegant Ruffian nail design featuring two of my favorite colours from the collection – Dior Miroir 001 and Cosmopolite 785. Metallic silver and mauve – such an unlikely combo yet it works! If you wish to re-create this manicure, this Ruffian Nails tutorial (from the book) will be very handy.
These all free handed! No tape, man.
Used: Ruffian Manicure – Dior Miroir 001 and Cosmopolite 785, plus, Essie Good To Go top coat. The last photo – the entire Dior Cosmopolite collection.
Wearing: all from the SoNailicious Boutique.
So what do you think about this Ruffian manicure? How do you like this colour combination?
Also, would you like to see individual reviews of any new Dior Cosmopolite polishes? I’m thinking about test driving Dior Miroir. It’s not a typical metallic silver but a stunning silver chrome. Are you curious to find out more about its performance? Maybe see a comparison?
