This color is much darker than I was expecting. Zoya describes the color as:
"Soft, dusty, dirty medium cerulean blue with an opaque cream finish. A super chic high-fashion denim look for nails."but in the bottle I thought it was more sky blue than steel blue. It's not. To try and hide the color I stamped M.A.S.H. plate m63 with China Glaze Platinum Silver on top. I have a lovely sweater that would go great with this polish, too bad it's summer. Please ignore my thumb; I probably redid that nail four times before I gave up on it. Smudges, bubbles, crooked design, ugh!
I really like how this polish looks in the light bulb photo but the actual color is more true to the sun photo. Lame.
I have to admit, this is the nicest polish job I've ever done on my nails. I usually flood my cuticles with polish, or get it all over the sides of my fingers - trying to overcompensate for having really small nail beds! This looks so much better.
Seriously one of my most favorite plate designs EVER! For flooded cuticles do clean up with a cheap art paintbrush - makes cleanup a snap and gives you quick, even lines. Love this combination by the way!
ReplyDeleteI've got a wretched paintbrush that is like using a twig to clean up with, lol. I think it'll just be easier to try and avoid painting near the cuticle at all.
