Name that movie!
This quote stuck with me while I was applying my nail polish last night. I've been lemming OPI's Dating a Royal for a long while, and when I read reports saying that it was very jelly, I quickly tracked it down and worked out a swap. And the bottle came, and the color was great. Not as great as I was expecting, but still great. Not to be deterred, I started to apply. And the first coat was magic... jelly blue that flowed over the nail, the perfect watery blue. But then the second coat went on, and I can't believe I'm saying this, but it was sadly buttery and opaque. And that was that. A perfectly opaque lovely shade of blue. Maybe I had put this up on a pedestal for too long, but it's not what I was expecting. Do I like it? Definitely! Do I love it and want to wear it for days on end? Nope. It's already been covered up with Absolutely Alice.
I think my clean up is getting better! I managed to get a clean margin without taking off half my nail polish this time lol!
Is there a bottle of nail polish in your stash that didn't live up to your expectations? I'd love to hear about it, I feel a little bad that I'm putting down Dating a Royal like this...

That is exactly how I felt about the Wizard of Oohs and Ahhs rerelease. They were just "meh" to me. I really like dating a royal, but mostly I like it for skittles manis. Its the perfect blue with just a hint of violet for those manis
It's from 10 Things I Hate About You!!!
That is a lovely blue!
That's from 10 Things I hate about you, right? I have to admit I wouldn't know that without mr. Google. =) This np looks great and your nails are perfection.
The quote is from 10 Things I Hate About You. It's said by Bianca's friend Chastity near the beginning of the movie.
I've felt that way about a few polishes myself.
That's a gorgeous shade of blue. Love the name too!
