Dior - Les Rouges: Trafalgar, Gruau and Icône Nail Polishes

So, we're a day from Valentine's Day and I have three colors for you today.  Les Rouges by Dior is a collection of three colors inspired by the history of The House of Dior.  Dior Trafalgar, Gruau and Icône were a part of a limited edition release for Fall 2011 and sold out instantly.

Dior Trafalgar is described as a "poppy red" and is a bright tomato red creme with the slightest hint of orange to it.  The color is super saturated and was opaque in two coats.

Next up, Dior Gruau is described as "a powerful red" that is a very rich and saturated brick red creme.  In the bottle it shows some shimmer, but it does not translate onto the nail.  Gruau was also easy to apply, although I used three coats for this one.

Dior Icône is the deepest of the three and reminds me of a chocolate...or what a red chocolate would look like.   It's a nice rich brownish red shimmer...that is very obvious in the bottle and not so much on the nail.  Icône is also nice and saturated...I used two coats here.

Until next time...
