Good morning, readers! I am going to share my latest nail art with you that I’ve worn all weekend and still have on today! As soon as I got Dior Perlé in the mail, I wanted to try it over some other Dior colors in my collection. I tried it on a nail wheel over my favorite, Dior Saint Tropez, and my jaw dropped! It reminded me so much of one of my favorite polishes: RBL Aqua Lily, but on overdrive! The shimmer is much more noticeable and there is blue in with the pink sparkly shimmer so it’s more complex as well. I fell instantly in love and it became a full mani with some free handed mermaid scales!
- I did 2 coats of Dior Saint Tropez.
- Then, I topped it with one coat of Dior Perlé.
- Once it was dry, I used a striper brush and Milani Silver Stilettos to make the mermaid scale pattern. It’s far from perfect or symmetrical, but the stamp I had with this design was too big and there weren’t many scales on my nail so this allowed me to make the scales the size I wanted.
- I added Seche Vite for a shiny finish to show all of the sparkly shimmer in Dior Perlé.

I am in love with that Dior Perlé. It seems anything polish of a pale pink tone is irresistible to me, and then to make it into a shimmery sheer! Must Be Mine!
