Dior Bronze Libertine Vernis Swatches & Review

Dior Bronze Libertine Dior Bronze Libertine Vernis Swatches & Review

Yep, I’m on a Dior kick lately, as I previously mentioned. The nail colors they are putting out for fall and winter this year are too good to pass up in my book!

I must apologize for the sorry state of my nails at the moment. I got really sick of them yesterday so cut them super short. I do this pretty frequently actually but try to have a bunch of nail posts already lined up. Well I didn’t this time, and when I received this color I didn’t want to wait a few days for my nails to grow out. So if you run screaming into the other room in horror, I don’t blame you. icon wink Dior Bronze Libertine Vernis Swatches & Review

Bronze Libertine is a beaut, is she not? She’s a gorgeous warm bronze/chocolate color with tons of multi-colored shimmer. I think you already know I have a “thing” for brown polishes, so this was a must have when I heard about it. I was not even slightly disappointed in the color, it’s everything I had hoped for.

The application was great, smooth, opaque in two coats. The little tapered brushes are not my fav, but I don’t mind so much if the color is this great.

Here she is in slightly cooler lighting.

You can find this baby at Neiman Marcus online and the cost is $21.00. My Dior habit is getting expensive! Oh and stay tuned for another post about yet another new (for fall) Dior color called Aztec Chocolate. icon smile Dior Bronze Libertine Vernis Swatches & Review

What do you think about this color, yay or nay? Are you a bronze lover?

      Seriously looks like fingers dipped in delicious chocolate caramel! Stunning! For your next Dior post, I recommend showing a picture of the Dior polish brush. I think it would be helpful for people to see what you’re talking about.

      • Hi SB_Sweetie,

        I concur. I thought of that as I was editing it but already downloaded everything and it was late. Good idea!

    I’m not a fan of brown polishes but this is so pretty. Do you think this will look as good on a brown skin girl? I’m round NW45, thanks!

    • Hi megan,

      It’s a really beautiful color and since it’s like a coppery/brown with shimmer I think it would look good on all kinds of skin tones.

    Love this! I will be on the lookout for the Diors at Shopper’s or Sephora. Looks great on you, and I am glad the site is working again so we can see your pretty swatches!

    • HI Melli,

      Woot!! I didn’t see this one on Sephora but they did have Aztec Chocolate on there as of last week. I should be getting it tomorrow :)

  • I just bought czarina gold, another Dior polish and I love it! Bronze Libertine seems very nice too!

    • Hi abcnails,

      I just love the colors lately :)

  • For $21 though? Ouch. No doubt it’s a pretty shade and I’m sure quality is pretty good.

    • Hi Kitty,

      Yep when you buy Dior you’re paying for the label for the most part! That’s why I only buy the ones I *really* like :)

    Hmmm… this might be my second Dior polish ever (Lemon Balm is the only one I own currently). Such an interesting color!

    So glad your site is back up and running!

    I need this one. I seldom NEED one but this one classifies as a NEED.

    I don’t usually like too many browns, but this one is awesome! I must have.

    That is one of the most beautiful browns I’ve ever seen. If we weren’t having a rash of underemployment in my family, I’d be making a pilgrimage to the Dior counter right now…
    sooooo pretty.
    And you nails look great short! (Mine are always that short- I can’t get them to grow any longer without splitting and peeling apart… phooey!)
    But not to worry, your nails grow really fast, don’t they? I seem to remember you saying that at some point… *grows green with envy* ;-)
    Seriously, though- your nails always look good, no matter what length.
    Thanks for the beautiful swatches, and new lemming!

    Gorgeous! Might just have to buy my first Dior polish… And your short nails look great by the way. :)

  • DLFM

    I think your nails look better short? And that’s a great color :)

    That is a stunning shade. I’m trying not to buy too much right now. I still need to buy some of the Halloween polishes. I already bought 6 RBL’s when the sale was on. (sigh)
