Lime Crime Nail Polish in Milky Ways

If you watch my You Tube videos, you'll know I love nail polish among all my other beauty addictions.  I enjoy the process of applying the base coat, color and top coat while listening (and glancing) at my fellow You Tube girlfriend's videos.  It's like therapy to me.  Because of my love of nail polish, I like to find new brands and see how the quality compares to those I already own.  Thus began my adventure over to Lime Crime's website.  I haven't heard much about the quality of polishes so I only ordered one to try out and figured if I loved it, I would pick up more in the future.

I chose the color Milky Ways which is described as a warm, watery off-white.  I would say that on my nails it came off as more of a "bone" or butter cream color so I suppose to some that could be considered off white.  Honestly it wasn't what I was expecting.  Not a horrible color but I'm not convinced it looks amazing on me.
         
                                                                Indoor Light
                                                              Natural Light

The formula is a little on the thicker side but not too goopy.  It's not extremely opaque with one coat so two is definitely recommended.  You get 9 ml or 0.3 oz and the packaging is quite cute.  See for yourself.
I'm interested in trying a few more colors so if/when I do, I'll share those with you as well.

Availability:  www.limecrimemakeup.com for $5.99 and there are currently 7 shades to choose from.

Overall thoughts:  The formula was good and this color was just okay, wasn't in love but would try a couple more. I think the price is affordable but do wish there were more shades to choose from.

Have you tried Lime Crime's nail polish or anything else from that line? I'd love to know.  :)

Thanks for spending time with me today!
