So in Love with Blue.

Photobucket
I have a passion for colorful nail polishes.  One color I do not wear often is blue because I think it is difficult to find the right shade of blue.  That all changed with Essie - Lapis of Luxury.  This is a great spring color, if I had to describe this polish color I would say it is more of a periwinkle blue.

I will say I usually am not a fan of Essie, but I have tried a few colors and my mind has changed.  The formula is not streaky and two coat application is just fine.  I use a base coat and top coat, but with some nail polishes I still find chipping the next day.  I have found that with Essie I can leave the same color on for about 5 days without chipping.

Also, find a local nail supply store that sells to the public to get discount prices.  I usually see Essie for at least $8.00, but the nail supply store in my area sells Essie for $3.00.  I hope this is helpful. 

LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. AND SOME OF YOUR FAVORITE NAIL COLORS AND BRANDS.

  2. That color looks great on you! I would personally go for a deep royal blue, but I have much darker skin than you do and pastels look weird on my nails...
