Random swatch: RGB Minty

Please excuse the glitter that's all over my nails! I was swatching glitter polishes before I swatched this one. 

RGB Minty


At $17 (with complimentary shipping -- it had better be complimentary at that price), a polish had better be fabulous for me to feel like I haven't totally wasted my money. Fortunately, RGB Minty qualifies. I have been a huuuuuuge fan of minty greens from the first moment I laid eyes on OPI Hey, Get in Lime several years ago. (I can't believe I missed out on Peppermint Patti and Chanel Jade, both of which I would kill to buy at their original retail price...) So when I saw RGB Minty, despite the sticker shock, I knew that I would eventually give in and buy it. I am SO glad I did. The application was superb: thick and pigmented, easy to control and apply... it made me sigh happily when I looked at my nails even though it was just a quick swatch. I have to do an NOTD with this sometime soon. 

I'd love to try more RGB polishes but at this price, that experience is going to have to wait for a sale.

    You must have purchased during the off time, I got it for $14 and it's back to that price now. For like a week it was $17 but it's changed back.

    Other than the price, which may be steep (for me it was, this is the most I've ever spent on 1 bottle), it's totally worth it. The colors is amazingly perfect!

    gildedangel, nihrida, thess, brooke: thanks so much!

    Get Nailed: ...omg. Are you serious?? I feel like a chump. Thanks for letting me know. :)

    Danica: Yes, too expensive... and I kind of hope the mint green dies down a bit. I like wearing colors that not everyone's wearing and everyone's wearing mint green! ;)

    Paloma: I'll check out your blog, thanks! :)
