It is my day off work today, and I'm feeling rather lazy. But I thought I'd throw up an easy post and show you one of my new
favorite nail varnishes! =)
I have been searching for a sort of mint
green/
blue and a lighter
purple color since last summer. However, I need a polish that has enough vibrancy to it that it doesn't wash me out. Pastel color polishes look amazing on other people, just not me! I found this mid-tone intense
purple aaaand I freakin' love it!!

For some unfortunate reason this color is looking totally different in pictures than in real life. :( FAIL! The shade is a much
warmer,
red-toned bright
purple. How annoying, right?!

I'd say the last picture, from Sephora.com, is pretty darn accurate.. and against my NOTD photo,
totally different!! This is definitely a FAIL NOTD, but I just love it in person!
What do you have on your nails today??
Xx-
its not a fail at all :) i actually really like the shade :) x
ReplyDeleteI ordered a set from ebay and they smell soooo much like extremely strong nail polish :( i hope mine arent fake cus i love pastel colours haha. Love that purple too !
ReplyDeleteThanks Adrienne :)
ReplyDeleteElly, my polish has a quite strong nail polish smell too. You would think that a more expensive nail polish wouldn't have that strong chemical smell!
I'm sporting the new Sally Hansen Salon Effect.
ReplyDeleteAMAZING.
I've been wearing the zebra print since Friday night - with showers everyday, washing dishes, and just everyday things - and I HIGHLY recommend them.
They don't peel off, chip, and there's no mess or the dreaded smudging!!
There polish is amazing http://britters89.blogspot.com/
