Cirque Colors is participating in another Nordstrom Pop In Event! Nordstrom’s latest monthly pop-in celebrates the world of Opening Ceremony – the iconic NYC-based fashion company launched in 2002 by Carol Lim and Humberto Leon. This event culls the best of the brand’s style for both men and women, including unique holiday gifts from up-and-coming designers and artisans. Inspired by OC’s pre-spring color palette, Cirque Colors is proud to introduce to you their limited edition ICON DUOS – 3 exclusive gift sets each containing 1 creme and 1 holographic nail lacquer. Now, check out the Cirque Colors x Nordstrom Pop In Icon Duos!

Oporto & Storm King

The first duo is Oporto & Storm King!

Tangerine Dream & Selvedge

Modern Muse & El Capitan

The final duo is El Capitan & Modern Muse!

El Capitan

El Capitan is an olive green creme. I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Modern Muse is described as a dusty pink holographic, but it definitely borders on a rose gold look! I used 2 coats and a glossy top coat for these photos.

Cirque Colors x Nordstrom Pop In Icon Duos Overview

Like with most Cirque Colors shades, I had no application issues. I do like the duos, but while I love cremes, I LOVE the holo halves of each duo. My favorite duo is Storm King & Oporto!
