Nail It! Show Off

I know that teal polishes were huge last winter and they don't seem to be around as much this year but I still love them!

This quickie post features a deep teal creme from Sportsgirl's polish brand Nail It!  I snapped up Show Off from Sportsgirl's bargain bin last year so it's unfortunately no longer available.  I do mean it when I say unfortunate because this was another lovely polish to apply.  Very smooth, with a lacquer-like shine.  Beautiful depth of coverage in two coats.  I wore this manicure unadorned for quite a few days just because I loved the shininess and vampy impact of it...

That's all for tonight.

    1. Thanks Ling :) I wish Sportsgirl had more of a core line of shades though. They change almost the entire line way too frequently so if you see something you love you buy it on the spot - or check out their discount bin frequently!

  2. Ohh, this is the first time I want to say vampy about a teal, but it certainly is, you are right - and it's very gorgeous, thanks for sharing!

  3. I think my heart cried a little when I got to the bit where it said I couldn't buy this :'( But I want it :(

    1. Oh I'm sorry. I hate creating useless lemmings so I had to point out it was no longer available. It's such a shame too because I can see it would still sell well. If you're interested a similar shade is available from Nicole called Khloe Had a Little Lam-Lam (Kardashian Collection). I keep picking it up and putting it back because it's so similar but I'm still so tempted!

    1. Thanks Vintage, I love it too because it's unusual but still classy. It also got me a lot of compliments from strangers, hehe :)

  6. Such a lovely smoked teal. Colors like this don't flatter me, but I really like it on other people!

    1. You'd still rock a bright teal Larie! I think I can get away with this one - if not, well... I'll still wear it anyway! LOL :D

    1. OMG I'm so bad bad bad!!! Have a look at NOPI's stupidly named Khloe Had a Little Lam-Lam. I think it's a pretty good dupe :)

  8. Wow that is a beautiful coverage and shine! I tried a red Sportsgirl polish and it also had good coverage but it wore off quickly.

    1. Thank you! If you want to get more mileage out of your polish try a good top coat. I've got into the habit and I've really noticed the difference, even worn over less expensive polishes.
