Now that I'm back in Los Angeles (YAY!), I feel the need to exhibit my happiness with bright, sunny colors. Enter Dior #319 Sunwashed.

I'm typically not a fan of yellow nail polish, especially since I'm so pale, but this is one of those shades that's flattering on every skin tone -- even ghostly Casper white like mine! It's just creamy and yellow enough to stand out and not make me look sickly.

Another shot of Dior Sunwashed. I love its unique mix of faded and bright!

This polish definitely builds with each coat, so it can look streaky or patchy if you don't do at least two. I applied two coats here, which I think supplied adequate coverage. And while I love it on my hands, I think it would be perfect for a summer pedicure!

I was actually gifted this polish right when I got back to LA yesterday! My lovely friend Kerry picked my mom and me up at the airport and she gave it to me over brunch. I haven't had any Dior polishes to play with in quite some time, so I was definitely excited to add it to my arsenal.

What's on your nails right now? Let me know in the comments!

Dior #319 Sunwashed retails for $27 at saks.com.

  2. Glad you made it back home! Yellow can be a tricky shade for polish IMHO, but I love Sunwashed! It's so soft and buttery

  4. Yellow can be so hard. It looks nice on you. It usually is terrible on me.

  12. What a lovely gift to receive! I love this shade, though I can't pull off yellow polish either - it clashes with my yellow undertones.
