Christian Louboutin introduces Neo Red nail polish collection

The famous shoe designer, Christian Louboutin, has just announced the launch of its new nail polish trio. This time, Louboutin, known for his iconic red stiletto soles, channels his favorite color in three new nail polish shades.

Christian Louboutin entered the beauty arena in 2014, with a rather small line of prestige nail polishes. Despite their insanely high price ($50 per shade) the polishes - presented in amazingly tall, spiky bottles, evocative of Louboutin’s heels - became an instant success.  Following the successful launch of its luxury nail polish range, Louboutin introduced the Loubi Under shade, a special under-tips polish for creating a perfect Louboutin Manicure. The launch was followed by a number of special editions and seasonal sets. Finally, last September, Louboutin further strengthened his position in the beauty marked with a lipstick and lip liner line.

This year, Louboutin is back to his roots with three high-shine polishes channelinghis signature color – red. In Louboutin’s own words: “Stylish and seductive, these shades are perfect for the runway-like entrance of the Met Ball and parties on the French Riviera.” The Louboutin Neo Red collection comprises:

• Edgy Popi – a summer-ready orange-red hue.  
• Jazzy Doll – a sparkling peony red named after Louboutin’s leather sandals
• Ladypeep – a raspberry hue named after Louboutin’s peep-toe stiletto

The lacquers of the Neo Red nail polish trio are delivered in the same molded-glass bottle, as the rest of the Louboutin’s nail polish range. The seven-inch calligraphy-inspired cap is inspired after the heel of the Ballerina ULTIMA, which the highest heel Christian Louboutin ever designed, while the shape of the glass bottle evokes the classical architecture of 18th century Europe. The long-wearing formula is densely saturated with color pigments, promising the effect of up to 20 layers of traditional polish in just two layers. The nail polishes are formulated without Toluene, Formaldehyde, or DBP.

Christian Louboutin Neo Red nail polish collection will be available from June 2016 in selected stores. You may already find them at Sephora and on www.christianlouboutin.com. The polishes are priced at $50 per shade.
