Dior Spring 2014 204 Porcelaine Swatch & Review

Ah, spring. On one hand, having spring collections released in the dead of winter gives me something to look forward to. On the other hand, it sort of feels like a cruel joke, taunting me. Regardless, I will happily sport my Spring 2014 pastel nail polishes with my heavy down coat and scarf.






3 coats

Dior Porcelaine is a pale blue creme. It looks like a cloudless sky - so crisp and clean. I know I'm going to be wearing this one a ton. The formula was slightly streaky, but it self-leveled very well. I didn't have to apply very carefully to get a smooth finish.



There are a couple other pale blues in my stash that are similar: Zoya Blu and Essie Borrowed and Blue. Porcelaine has more pigment than Borrowed and Blue, but is pretty close to Blu. I would say it's okay to skip this if you already own Blu.



Dior 204 Porcelaine retails for $24 and is available at Sephora.

    Hmm, good to know about the comparisons, Lola, thanks! Although I will say I've been eyeing this colour so I might just cave and go for the real thing ;)

    That's usually the best thing to do. I'm never satisfied with dupes, no matter how close they are, lol.
