Mermaid’s Tears
September 9, 2011
I finally got around to wearing this, this week, it was around the same time that S. and I. finally watched Pirates of the Caribbean – On Stranger Tides (truth to be told I loved the 1st and last POTC movies). I have always been attracted to all things sea related, I love swimming in the pool, I love seaweed, I collect seashells, I just love all things mer-related. So being able to see beautiful mermaids in costumes on screen was pretty enjoyable. Naturally when OPI released their POTC collection, this was one of the main colours I wanted to have. In regards to the family of colours belonging in the seafoam green section, I still prefer Essie’s Mint Candy Apple. Nevertheless, I enjoyed wearing it, it’s a warmer, sophisticated version to the mint candy apple, and perhaps more wearable for those of us that work in a ‘semi-corporate’ environment. Luckily for me, my job field allows me to be fairly fun and quirky in my work appearances. Two coats was more than enough and was a breeze to apply, topped with some Seche Vite topcoat (THE BEST TOP COAT EVARRRR!).
I normally wear very pale colours on my toes, but I’m leaning towards sporting this soon on them as well.
Today’s colour choice is white nail polish. I think it makes my tan really glow, and your nails look healthy and bright. (Wow, um, what a description!)
Have a lovely weekend!
