"Mere color, unspoiled by meaning, and unallied with definite form, can speak to the soul in a thousand different ways."

Healthy

When I took off the suede nail polish I was pleasantly surprised.  Look!  My nails are healthy!  I've been reluctant to clip and file them and put on a new color.  Usually I wear nail polish because if I don't my nails peel and I pick at them and then they break and tear and it really is horrible.  Wearing nail polish and changing colors regularly keeps them from misbehaving.  I wonder if it is the cuticle cream that's helping.  Probably.  Don't worry though I will be wearing a new color soon.  I always go back to the polish.  Next up! OPI's The "It" Color.

This is one of the nail polishes I bought off Amazon.  It's OPI's We'll Always have Paris Suede.  I've been wanting to try the suedes ever since I heard of them.  Though they came out over year ago and aren't really in style anymore. This polish is okay, but not my favorite.  I really like the texture it gives.  It's a matte but with a shimmer and when it's fresh it does look like suede.  However when they say it doesn't last as long as regular polish they're not kidding.  Mine began chipping the next day.  It dries really fast though, so if you want a quick polish with a luxurious feel for a night out this will do the trick.  I would pair it with suede boots and jeans.  Or maybe a satiny cocktail dress!


Also ordering from amazon was not as awesome as I thought it would be.  At first glance the polish looks like it's only $2 but in reality, once you add shipping and other fees (it doesn't qualify for the super saver shippin btw), it comes out to be only a few cents cheaper than at the store.  BUT! If you really want a color you can't find in the store, this is a great option!!
