Essie Van d'Go

Wednesday, March 21, 2012

As you may have noticed, I'm all about the pastels this spring! I love the gorgeous soft colours for this time of the year, and I've even started to add colours like this to my wardrobe, which, for someone who only used to wear black, is a big deal.

Essie's Van d'Go is a beautiful salmon peachy pink shade which needs 2-3 coats for perfect opacity. However I do think it's completely worh it as it looks absolutely beautiful! I do have to say that my bottle is getting a little goopy, but that may be due to the fact that I've had it for about two years now.






Last time I wore this ring in a photo, someone asked me if it was an engagement ring. I can't tell you how hard I laughed at that one. Just to reassure you, it is NOT. Most of the time I feel like I'm still 14, so I don't see getting engaged anywhere in the near future! :)

Share your opinion:

  1. i have that exact bow as earrings! haha great :)

    1. If you can't find it, you can always order online... That's how I get my Essie polishes! I love bows too, they're so girly and cute! x

  16. Apparently if your nail varnish goes gloopy you should put some polish remover in to thin it out! I've never managed it without making a mess though....lovely colour anway! Perfect neutral.

    1. I've heard that before, but some people say that if you do that you'll ruin your nail polish, so I'm scared to try! I'll probably just get some nail thinner and try it with that, so many of my polishes are looking goopy lately. Thank you! x
