Nabi - Lavender

Hello again!

I decided to do a proper nail swatch of one of those smelly Nabi polishes I hauled a few weeks ago (click here to see).

I chose Lavender because it was the only polish of the three that didn't apply as a thin watery mess on the original tape swatch.  It was horribly 'plasticky' smelling on application as I expected but the coverage was pretty good and the polish dried fairly quickly. Thank goodness the smell faded fairly quickly too. The colour is a totally pretty musk pink which I would love to wear in spring or summer. 

Please forgive my horrible cuticles showing remnants of leftover dark polish - I cropped these pics within an inch of their lives but I couldn't hide them completely without the pictures looking totally silly...

If I'm feeling daring I'll try out the other Nabi polishes and see how they fare on my nails. 

Until my next post.
