The polishes bottle the ultra-luxurious qualities of Specchio, a laminated leather with a mirror-like quality, loved by Christian Louboutin for its ability to capture light and take on new dimension. Infused with light-reflecting pigment pearls, the new colors deliver a playful chrome finish on nails. Highly pigmented, nails appears dipped in liquid metal. In energetic shades of candy red, lime green and magenta, Christian Louboutin imbues the typically more edgy look of metallic nails with a spirited feminine charm. For the first time, Christian Louboutin introduces individually sold miniature bottles of his beloved Nail Colour formula. Led by the designer’s inclination to mix and match, each one is housed in a multicolored chrome box featuring a combination of all three shades. The middle partition of the box reveals the shade inside. Each bottle is crowned with the brand’s signature calligraphy-style cap in a distinctive iridescent finish, another first for the brand. The motif changes when viewed at different angles, almost like a hologram.

The packaging is fun and the colors are nice, but there is no world in which I would shell out $30 for a single mini nail polish. Honestly the colors seem pretty dupeable too, with maybe the exception of the chartreuse (which wouldn’t be my first choice anyway).

I guess if you just really want to own something Louboutin this is about as low cost as you’re going to get, though- ha!

Well, $10 a bottle (even if it’s a mini bottle) is a basement bargain for Louboutin, and I won’t have to wear it as a necklace or earring to justify the purchase LOL I only like the pinky purple shade (no surprise) but if they sold individual bottles, I might be game to collect one, as I sure as hell can’t afford the shoes. Maybe he’ll do mini lipstick sets next? That would be cool, since you can get more unique shades with lippies than nail polish

I’ll pass, beautiful to look at but unfortunately that formula doesn’t work well at all on my nails, chips within a day. I know it wears quite well on most people, I think it’s all the medication I have to take now.

As always, beautiful bottle, but polish-wise, they’re nothing special. I appreciate that the colors are very spring-appropriate (especially if you like the kinds of colors for spring that kick you straight out of the winter doldrums, forcefully). I think Sinful Colors has shades just like this (or close enough) for $2 a (full) bottle. Of course, people who are buying these aren’t buying them for the unique colors or sweet deal.
