Designer Christian Louboutin has interpreted the start of an exciting year with a new launch in Nails—a new limited edition trio of mini Loubichrome Nail Colors ($30 each). See them in the slideshow above.
The polishes are said to bottle the ultra-luxurious qualities of Specchio, a laminated leather with a mirror-like quality, which Louboutin loves “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 appear dipped in liquid metal in shades of candy red, lime green and magenta—an edgy look of metallic nails with a feminine charm.
The miniature bottles speak to the designer’s inclination to mix-and-match. Each one is housed in a multi-colored 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, a first for the brand. The motif changes when viewed at different angles, almost like a hologram.
