Layering : Feu Divin or my first 2011 Christmas Manicure

A few weeks ago when I posted this year's new Dior Christmas collection, I promised I'd show you what Or Divin looked like layered.
For this mani, I decided to use two coats of Dior Or Divin topped with one coat of a red jelly with flakies franken Magma and finally one coat of CND Sheer 24K Sparkle.





I really love how Or Divin changes completely the color of Magma, the mani is really blazing. Magma is much darker on its own, I love it too but in a different way.
I also tried the same layering with a blue jelly, actually this was my first idea :




So what do you think? Have you ever tried layering a jelly over a shimmer?

  1. Beautiful - I love gold and red/red-pink colors! Just as regal and pretty as purple with gold! Have you tried Essie's new Luxe Effects? They've got some pretty flaky's - one is like this 24k CND that you used :o) LOVE IT

  4. Oooh, pretty! I have Or Divin but I haven't worn it yet because I wasn't so sure that it liked my skin tone very much. I'm definitely going to try this with Or Divin and some of my jellies.
