Just look at that shimmer... Dior is gaining on Chanel in terms of its legendary shimmer.
I found this to be incredibly easy to work with. I used 2 coats in these swatches, but Galaxie is easily a one-coater.
Here's some other shades for comparison. As you might guess, I'm a sucker for a vampy red. Companies may as well just take my money in advance!
2-coat swatches, from left-right:
- Essie National Velvet (one of my old favorites, much lighter)
- Chanel Gondola (still too light, but a recent acquisition you'll see in the coming days)
- Chanel Metal Grenat (close in terms of the metallic sheen, but not plummy enough)
- OPI Skyfall (too brick red, but a beautiful creme)
- Dior Galaxie
- Chanel Malice (right amount of shine, but not enough plum. Yum, I've missed this one)
- Essie Material Girl (probably the closest)
Bottom line: Beautiful plummy vamp for fall. I love these type of colors, so I'm glad it's a part of my collection. I can see this getting a lot of wear once the temperatures fall.
Price: $24
Availability: Dior, Nordstrom, Sephora, Macys, and your local counters. It's also LE, but not selling as quickly as its sister Destin.
