Manicure Monday: Aphrodite's Pink Nightie

October 07, 2013

Happy Monday! Sorry for being super MIA lately! My best friend is getting married this upcoming weekend, so things are starting to get a little crazy around here. Aside from hosting her bridal shower this past weekend, there's lots of decorating to do, prepping for the wedding, and the rehearsal dinner this week too! I'll get back to my emails and comments soon, I promise!

So since I'm in wedding mode, I'm switching gears a little bit this week and looking for a polish colour that's suitable for the wedding. The wedding colours are white & blush pink, so I decided to swatch OPI's classic Aphrodite's Pink Nightie to see how it would look against my dress. This pale pink polish has a frosty finish to it, which I typically despise. However, the formula applies nicely and levels out quite well, which minimizes the streaky look after the polish dries. At two coats, the polish is just about opaque and shows a slightly visible nail line. It's a pretty shade that looks great in the spring, or even for weddings! Polish wears up to 4 days chip free, and the shine lasts for quite some time. It's not the colour I'm looking to wear for the wedding.. so it's time for me to keep swatching before the big day!
