Mini Haul : Dior Vernis 782 Silver Purple + Dior Foundation Brush

As the title already revealed, this is another haul post again - a mini haul actually! You wonder about my makeup diet? Haha... call me a loser or whatsoever! But hey, after all I kept about three weeks!? (^ o ^)/


Ever since I saw this nail polish on All Lacquered Up a few days ago, I decided that I had to get my hands on it. Dior Vernis 782 Silver Purple is a limited edition item from the Dior Holiday 2009 Cristal Boreale Collection.

To me, Dior Vernis 782 Silver Purple is pretty much the most outstanding item out of the whole collection. I think the two palettes, the single shadows and the lippies are pretty, but somehow don't tempt me enough though. Well, that's great for my purse, isn't it? Hehe... yay!


DIOR Vernis ~ 782 Silver Purple


Doesn't it look stunning just in the bottle itself? It is a deep smokey purple with silver shimmer to it. It looks very dark indoors and more purple with silver hues outside in daylight. It is definitely one of the prettiest dark nail polishes for this season!


So, I couldn't wait any longer to apply it onto my nails right after I got home with it, hehe... Excuse the gross application! I haven't applied nail polishes for quite a while now, and I admit that I have never been good at it. Why don't I have a steady hand?!


DIOR Foundation Brush


Yes, I chose THIS foundation brush, because I love the design, hehe... But, the brush itself has very soft hairs too! I'm going to use it for blending concealer. I don't like actual concealer brushes, since I feel they are too small, which doesn't make blending out smoothly as effortless as with a foundation brush.

Now I gotta catch some more sleep, since I got a cold this weekend. Have a great week ahead!

Stay pretty!
Stay Ohh... pretty!

Three weeks is pretty impressive...
You should be proud of yourself!

Hi Jess!

I have that nail polish too, and I agree that the colour is gorgeous. The Dior foundation brush is also my favourite, the hairs are SO SOFT, it blends everything in so well. Its also dense enough that I use it to buff out my foundation too (although I have a feeling it's not too great for the brush itself...)

ohh I want that Dior polish after seeing it on another swatcher!! I so agree with you about larger brushes being more effective at blending concealer.. especially under the eyes.

Babybubblz said...

I don't see much purple in the polish but it looks gorgeous on your nails. Very unexpected haha.

The brush is beautiful too! I also feel that concealer brushes are too small, so I use a foundation brush as well.

Jamilla Camel said...

I LOVE that nail polish and the brush is gorgeous!

Beauty Snap said...

Woohoo, great nail polish!! Love how you included that necklace in the back of the dior brush haha :D

Catherine said...

Nice minihaul! I think three weeks is quite admirable - I think my longest nobuy lasted barely 5 weeks hahaha... but I do have to restart mine. Love the polish - it is so pretty! And I think your application is actually quite good! Practice makes perfect though, truly, when it comes to nail polish. =) That is one goooorgeous foundation brush too - so classy and sophisticated looking!

Jess said...

Beauty Snap: Haha... does the necklace look that real? It is indeed a picture from a magazine. :p

therainbowstar said...

Wow, the nail polish is so pretty! ♥ I don't use nail polish much any more either, but I think I'll have to check it out. And your application looks perfectly okay to me. :)

p chan said...

that nail polish looks fab on you! it's really a unique colour! :) i don't use brushes to blend in concealer... i just use my fingers hahaa. cos i'm too lazy to wash my brushes!

Jian said...

I agree that is very very pretty for fall. And all of Dior's brushes look so sleek and shiny!
