This dreamy pale blue is Essie Find Me An Oasis. It's one of the latest polishes to arrive in my nail mail package from the US. I love the color but it was really difficult to capture in the photos, it's actually a bit paler than it appears, looking almost white at a distance or in certain lights. I included the last Instagram photo since that's probably the best representation of the color.
Find Me An Oasis is reasonably alright to apply; after a super streaky first coat, the second coat almost evened everything out, but for me, a bit of perfectionist when it comes to my nails, it needed a third coat. You may think it's fine with two. Dry time was no problem but it did need a topcoat for more shine.
Orginally I planned to combine this one with glitter, but then I pulled out an old gem, a gold shimmer polish by Korean brand The Face Shop, and was reminded of this cute mani I'd seen on Instagram. I like the combination, the coolness of the blue and the warmth of the gold really compliment each other, don't you think?
I'll probably be trying gold tips with other colors from here on out.
What color do you have on your nails at the moment? Any colors/brands you recommend me to try?
I love how delicate and pretty this manicure is! x

This mani is so gorgeous xx
ReplyDeleteLove this colour! The gold makes it a little more special :) I am currently trying to avoid nail varnish for a bit because my nails are in bad condition. However, before that, I was obsessed with white nail polish. So cute and looks great with everything (accept cream of course hahah)!
ReplyDeleteHaaappy Spring!

I love pastel coloured nail polish but it's such a shame it's almost always a nightmare to apply! I've got a gold polish too but I'd never been sure what do with it before now but I'll definitely have to try this out! Thanks for the inspiration :) x
