Nails: Dior Addict Nail Colour

Hi All!

I was looking through my nail polish collection and totally forgot I owned this; Dior Addict one-coat nail polish in rose '580'. I've had it for a about two/three years and I remember buying it at an end of season sale at the House of Fraser, Christian Dior counter for about £6!!! It's not gunky or anything, so I thought i'd put it on tonight and it applied very well. It's a lovely subtle rose/brown shade which is slightly darker then the photo I have taken. Although it states it only needs one coat, applying two coats max helps achieve a rich full shade and it dried pretty quick unlike some other polishes I have tried.

Overall i'm very pleased with the application and shade and will hopefully have an update for you on it's life span so watch this space! Until then, anything you guys forgot you owned that you recently re-discovered?
