Lime Crime: Once In a Blue Mousse

My second Lime Crime swatch is the colour I had to have!

Once In a Blue Mousse is described as Tiffany blue and it is most definitely that lovely robin's egg shade of blue.  I loved seeing it in the bottle, and was pretty pleased with the way it looked on the nails too.  The formula was fantastically opaque and application was a lot easier than my first experience with Pastelchio.  This shade looks pretty close to China Glaze's iconic Tiffany blue polish For Audrey although it is a slightly lighter (more pastel) version and you can justify owning both. In any case, if you're a fan of anything Tiffany blue you'll love this polish!

    1. Yes, yes and yes to the above. You've summed it up beautifully! They do dry to a vinyl finish without topcoat so you have that option too :)
