On this Collaboration Saturday together with my friend Elena from PicturedTinsel I am today showing:
Waterlily is a beautiful jade green with a subtle shimmer.
But it is scented, and I find it slightly nauseating – especially compared with Forget-Me-Not.
The formula is not quite as perfect as I normally find Dior to be, it is a bit on the thick side, but after a few drops of thinner, it was a little better.

This is two coats without a top coat – and yes I swatched it before, but my nails are longer now, I’m better at applying polish and the previous photos were taken with my old camera.
I wonder what Elena has for us today, maybe also something that could grow in a pond ;)
I own this shade! It was my first high end polish, and my verrrrry first blog post. Even though I agree with your review on this shade, it still has a very special place in my heart. Your pictures capture the shimmer in Waterlily perfectly & your swatches are flawless (as per usual) :)
SvarSletThat is so fun - it was my very first high end too!!
SletAnd because of that it took a while before I tried another Dior :)
Thank you so much Karen :)
I love this one and it's fragrance. It's very practical if you have dogs. If they are 'naughty', you just sniff on your nails ;DDD.
SvarSletKind regards,
Elena
LOL - I almost prefer a dog fart ;)
SletAlso it looks a bit weird if you go around in public sniffing your nails ;)
Such a gorgeous green :)
SvarSletI'm glad you like it :)
SletI love this colour! :-)
SvarSletI'm happy to hear it :)
SletI am not really sure what to think of this one. I like the colour (amazingly), but perhaps it's a bit too dusty for me? I don't know, but I do know that I like it on you! :)
SvarSletYes, it is a little dusty, and that is a light turn off for me too, but I'm glad you like it on me :)
SletIt is such a gentle and pretty shade and the shimmer is quite lovely. It is good you managed to make formula more workable.
SvarSletSo am I, when I first bought 2 years ago, I was convinced I was the problem LOL - might still be, but the drops helped :)
Sleti was just going to say that this looks familiar... i'm glad you re-swatched it :D
SvarSletlooks great, glad to hear that the thinner helped with formula :D
Aww, do you really remember....
SletI'm glad I did so too!
i simply adore waterlilly. i was so happy when i finally managed to get it a couple of months ago!
SvarSletIt is a pretty polish for sure, and I'm so glad you found it!
SletUn verde primaveral precioso. Me encanta
SvarSletI'm so glad you like this spring green :)
SletThe shimmer is wow... too bad they've added scent!
SvarSletYes, I agree, I never understood scented polishes...
SletIt looks so pretty with this delicate shimmer! ;)
SvarSletIt does, the shimmer is so pretty!
SletSo beautiful! I just love polishes with shimmers like this!
SvarSletI too have a weakness for that kin of shimmer LOL
