All better now

This was the mistake color; the one I loved in the bottle but not on me.


Violet Vision (not violent as I just typed, whoopsie) gives way to . . .



Purple Passion!

This is much better, to me anyway. Not just for my skin tone but for my personal aesthetic and personality. I look and feel much better in brighter (or darker) more intense colors than muted shades or pastels. I like it so much that I broke protocol and put it on my fingernails, too. Generally if my fingers are polished, I like them to be a different color from my toes, but I didn't have another polish here at home that made me this happy. I don't count on the fingers lasting long, though. I'm really rough on fingernail polish, and I end up having to remove it after just a couple of days because it gets hopelessly chipped.

Wow. And I have still to put the boring beige on my toes!

P.S. I like the new colour better, too!

I like the color! Maybe I'll try purple on my toes—AFTER the honeymoon. Sticking with pale pink for the pre-wedding pedi.

I like the purple. Looks very cool.

I used to paint my toes cool colors too. I once had them painted Orange. I did it too match an outfit that I was wearing. LOL.
