I finally got around to painting my nails tonight, and I just love this shade! I got it maybe a month ago from The Icing and it was on sale for I think $2.25. It's called Peacock:
It's a perfect mix between blue and green, in my opinion, and it's not too "in your face" bright or anything. That's enough to win me over! While I love bright colors, sometimes I feel like I have a hard time pulling them off on my nails.
Yep, there's some duo-chrome action going on, too! That's another thing that makes this polish look so cool. It's green, but in different lights you can see some purple-y gold hints as well.
See?
Gorgeous!
I have several polishes from The Icing, and I've been pretty satisfied overall. The formula is on the thicker side, but once you get used to it it's no problem. With a decent top coat, I get several days (3-4) of wear on this before my tips get a little noticeable. Other than that, there was no real chipping that I experienced (I also had a change of heart and decided to switch the color after 4 days, so I didn't test it for too long). I'm not sure if all of The Icing's nail polishes are this durable- I have some pastel creme-like ones, but I haven't paid attention to how much they chip yet.
These normally sell for about $4.50 each, but I think The Icing always has BOGO1/2off on cosmetics. And I always check their redline items to see if any good beauty products have been marked down (Like this one!).
Hope you're all having a good night!
