It's an exciting day in the beauty world as the Christian Louboutin nail colour range finally arrives at Selfridges. The signature 'Rouge Louboutin' takes its colour inspiration from the iconic soles of Louboutin's stillettos – very apt considering the red soles were originally created using his assistant's nail polish!
The full collection consists of 30 shades grouped into three families: Pops, Noirs and Nudes. At £36 they aren't cheap, but the packaging is suitably glamorous, with a lid inspired by the spiked Ballerina Ultima heel, the highest Louboutin heel ever made at 20.5cm. The Ballerina Ultima was created for a 2007 photography exhibition in collaboration with David Lynch, and Lynch has also created a film to celebrate Rouge Louboutin (see below).
If the reviews I've read so far are accurate, the finish is exquisite and the colour long-lasting.There might be 30 shades but let's be honest, it's the Rouge Louboutin we all want to get our hands on first. A classic red nail polish is a fashion staple and it doesn't get more iconic than one that was three years in the making and is the epitome of luxury. Sign me up!
