Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name.
Last nail polish you purchased? Chanel Le Vernis in Tuxedo
Last nail polish you used? So long ago I don’t remember. I do not wear nail polish on the daily or even the monthly. I may apply a couple times a year.
Last nail polish you fell in love with? The above, Chanel Tuxedo. It is the holiday release for this season and I just thought the color would suit my daughter.
Your skin tone/coloring: Under my name (blue-green eyes, dark hair)
Last nail polish you purchased? Sinful Shine Gel Tech in Spice. I’ve had it for around 3 years, I think, and STILL haven’t used it! š±
Last nail polish you used? A blood orange nail polish on my toenails this summer, but I don’t remember which one.
Last nail polish you fell in love with? ALL the magnificent multichromes and holos! Especially the blue/green/purple and the red/orange/black-brown shifters! What a shame that my hands have such awful eczema that I no longer even bother wearing nail polish anymore. š
Your skin tone/coloring: pale, cool
Last nail polish you purchased? OPI Lincoln Park After Dark
Last nail polish you used? OPI Black Cherry Chutney (I have it on my toes; it’s awfully similar to Lincoln Park)
Last nail polish you fell in love with? Lincoln Park After Dark (which is why I bought it).
Your skin tone/coloring: Very fair with cool undertones
Last nail polish you purchased: new bottle of China Glaze Ruby Pumps purchased today for Christmas pedicure tomorrow!
Last nail polish you used: Chanel Pirate last month
Last nail polish you fell in love with: Tom Ford Smoke Red. 3 coats for the perfect blood red and a very close dupe for the discontinued Chanel Dragon. Unfortunately, Smoke Red is also now discontinued so I’m back on the hunt.
I’m boring, I only wear red polish, usually a classic red in spring/summer and deeper shade in fall/winter
I am a Butter London fan of Dearie Me – an oldie but a classic. Not too pink, not too coral. Love the solid creme color with no glitz. Just a classy and elegant color. But…..I recently ordered an INLP Black to Red Ultra Chrome! Haven’t received it yet, but I decided this 70+ year old is going to try something out of her comfort zone.

Last nail polish you fell in love with? Lots, but ILNP Chai Latte is a fave, perfect neutral holo, it’s so pretty!
Welp, when I buy nail polish it’s usually by the dozen at a time. Fortunately for my bank account it’s very rare for me to fall in love. My latest crush is with Holo Taco (which is vegan, cruelty free, 10-free & made in USA) especially Late Checkout, a gorgeous purple-indigo shimmer polish with gold reflective glitters.
From this order I’m currently wearing Private villa (a red-pink jelly holographic shimmer polish with hot pink reflective glitters), but I bought the 5 holo barista polishes (warm neutrals with holographic sparkles), and 3 of the latest collection with them
Iām pretty neutral.
Holo Taco has been my go to for nail polish lately but I still got some OPI holiday collection.
