ABC Challenge: L is for Lime Green!
1:34:00 PMHi, gals and guys!
At first, I was at a loss when coming up with an idea for this week. But then, I was looking through my press samples that I have to swatch, and landed on the most gorgeous lime green crème. Inspired by Barielle Green Apple, I wanted to continue the theme. Over two coats of Green Apple, I added one coat of Sinful Colors Call Me Later for a nice sprinkling of green and gold glitters.
I want to take a moment to talk about the formula of Barielle Green Apple. Every single lime green polish I have tried has stained my nails and cuticles horribly, so I was nervous to try out this Barielle. Green Apple was recently released in their spring offering, Sweet Treats, and I couldn't find any info on whether or not this polish stains. I want to put it out there that it DID NOT stain my nails at all! Color me impressed!
I am obsessed with this color! I was on the fence at first, undecided if lime green was really my style. After wearing Barielle Green Apple for a full day, though, I am in love with this shade. The formula was great and didn't stain my nails, and the color is truly eye-catching.
What's your favorite "unconventional" polish?

Wow....look all thirty shades of Illamasqua "speckled", at a fraction of the price. Great job.
ReplyDeleteUnconventional? Can't begin to imagine. I love it all! :)
Isn't it great when you try a color you're not sure about and you love it? This is such a great color and I love the combo with the glitter on top. Like Lisa said, it reminds me of the Illamasqua line. I don't own many Barielles, but this one may just have to be mine!
ReplyDeleteThat is a super pretty combo. Love how they both look!
ReplyDeleteI love love love this color and with the bling it reminds me of pear jelly bellies, dontcha think? Mmmm jelly bellies!!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesomely loud color! I love it!
ReplyDeleteReally love it, it screams summer to me. I really want that glitter. Very cool :D
ReplyDeleteGreen is my fav color for nail polish and, of course, I also love lime greens! They are so bright and joyful! I think I have a couple of them by Essence... I have to wear them again soon!
