| Dior Vernis Nail Duo in Bahia (002), Bird of Paradise Collection |
If you already have similar colours in your collection, you might want to pass on these. But if not it might be worth it to take a closer look. Both polishes have a superior formula that, at least in my book, make them worth the extra cost. I found the colours very rich in colour, flattering, and perfect in every way.
Like the first duo, these polishes do not have names, so just numbers are given. All swatches are with a coat of Seche Vite. Also, I've taken photos under direct light and in my light box so you can get a better sense of how the polish looks.
Bahia 667 is a hot pink creme, it's very saturated and intense in terms of colour, but it's not quite a neon. This is actually a re-release. It was originally called Pink Graffiti and was part of the Anselm Reyle limited edition collection. At least the bottle number is the same and it looks like the same polish. So if you missed it before, you have a second chance! ;) And thanks to @thepolishowl on Instagram who originally told me about this!

Bahia 792 is a blue creme that leans slightly towards a teal blue. It's absolutely gorgeous. Only downside is that this one is slightly staining.

The formula on both was the same. Both only needed two coats for full opacity. They went on very smooth, with no streaking, and were perfectly self-levelling. They have a flawless finish with a high shine, even without top coat. The polishes in the Bahia duo have everything I would want in a creme polish.
Like the Samba duo, these are 7ml/0.23fl. oz. minis. In Canada it retails for $30.
What do you think of this? Out of the two Dior duos, which one is your favourite?
I really like this duo! the pink is lovely and I'm having a crush on all Dior blue polishes at the moment!lol I also love the green creme from the other duo!
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on the duo and everything. I have no regrets picking this up! I think I'm just having a crush on Dior period! I need more in my collection!!
DeleteThese colours are beautiful! I think I prefer this duo over the other one, but they're still both great duos.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to decide isn't it!? Fortunately they're minis so if you wanted to pick up both it wouldn't be too much money. :)
DeleteHi Meghan, immaculate swatches and such beautiful polishes!!! I really like Dior's Duos - I find those smaller bottles with two different colors great (especially since my stash is far from small - ehem ;-))
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Christine! I'm always trying to make my swatches better. :)
DeleteI agree with you on the duos. For me it makes them more affordable. And my stash is also - ehem - growing out of control!! ;)
