Essie Armed and Ready Swatch

Hey girls.

I needed a break from the bright colors I've been sporting lately and I had a color in my stash that I was going to wait til fall to use, even though it came out in a spring collection.. Anyways. Here is Essie Armed and Ready, a great dark green with gold shimmer throughout. I see other color shimmers in there but I don't know. Below is two coats with top coat:


Nevermind the fingerprints all over the bottle...

Formula wise, I almost love this. It's thin and watery but very pigmented. I would love it if it didn't have the tendency to pool in your cuticles. If only, huh?

What do you think? Do you like this? I'm sure I'll love this in the fall. Let me know, thanks for reading! :D

OPI Light My Sapphire

Hey gals! Sorry for the absence, I was feeling quite uninspired. I even left my nails naked for a couple of days, because I knew I wouldn't be leaving the house. Thank goodness that's over! Tonight I'm going out with the boyfriend, so of course I painted my nails :) The color I chose is Light My Sapphire by OPI. It came out in the Night Brights collection, and it truly is gorgeous. In low lighting, it looks black, but up close and in sunlight, it's a stunning dark blue with microshimmer... it's gorgeous. It's great for when you want chic nails without having to go black. The swatches below are two coats, topped with a coat of Poshe.
Here are outside shots:

Remember, the pics are clickable! :) Thanks for reading! OH! Before I forget: I'm not only into nail polish, I love make up, too. Would you guys like to see some EOTD looks? Let me know! :)
