Dior: Golden Jungle


I keep wanting to call this collection Golden Safari. To the point of having to redo all my labels. Might be because I actually went on one fairly recently.

The Golden Jungle collection actually included four colors, two of which were covered last week. Bengale was a Neiman Marcus exclusive. However, I’m finding that Dior sometimes releases them on the website after the exclusive event has run its cours – such as the Les Violetes Hypnotiques collection which were a Nordstroms exclusive and are now available on the Dior website.

Both Bengale and Amazonia are definate fall/winter colors. Earthy and smokey. Bengale is a chocolate brown creme. Brown is not my favorite shade as I’m much more into color. But still, the shade is appealing.

Amazonia is a dusty moss green. This one I really like and can see wearing more often. I think its muted enough that if there ever was a green that could be worn to work by the faint of heart, this probably would be it.

Both colors were two coats. Formula was good, but I have a lagging faith in the Dior brush. So much so, that I won’t reach for a Dior color unless I have ample time for cleanup. Since I usually do my nails about 15 mintues before I leave for work, it’s become a seldom used every day brand for me.

    They both look nice but… maybe not so unique?
