Fun with Dior Amazonia and a Comparison

Today I decided to play around with my Dior Amazonia manicure. So I layered Lynnderella She Lived in a Swamp over the top. I like the way it turned out, actually! I used one coat of Gelous to seal it up.

I also looked around my stash to see if I had anything close to a dupe for Dior Amazonia. And I do not! The closest one I had is Kiko 393 Havana Green and as you can see, they're not dupes at ALL. There's quite a bit more grey in Amazonia than I initially thought.

Dior Amazonia - Swatches and Review

This post will be short and sweet. Dior Amazonia is part of the Dior Fall 2012 Golden Jungle Collection along with Golden Light and Bengale, which I don't have.

It's a Dior creme, so there's not a lot to say. Formula was the same amazing Dior creme as always. Same perfect brush. Same hidden shimmer. Perfection in a bottle and this time it's MY kinda green, a deep khaki/olive green!!!  Two coats and no top coat for all photos.

Since "yucky greens" are my favorites, I LOVE it! But I know this color isn't for everyone. What do you think?

Dior polishes are available at dior.com (which is where I got mine) and are supposed to be widely available at Dior counters in the US mid to late July. They retail for $23 for .33 fl. oz.
