China Glaze Blue Island Iced Tea

It's supposed to be winter... in some places of the world, it's been snowing up a storm and winter has definitely shown his face, but here... nothing... It has dipped below zero a couple of times, but that's about it. I'm looking out my window right now and it's actually sunny. My parents live about 2,5 hours north of me and they did have snow. I feel a little torn about it, because I love snow! It looks so cosy and I love taking walks with my husband when everything is white. It makes me feel incredibly serene. But I hate driving in the snow and since I have to get to work 5 days a week, I like the fact that I don't have to deal with the mess.

I love wearing cooltoned icy colors in winter, especially when it's snowing, but I deceided not to wait for snow to put this polish on. China Glaze Blue Island Iced Tea is a very cooltoned icy blue glass fleck polish. It's so shimmery that it almost looks like a foil on the nail.

The formula is on the thin side, so be carefull when applying, because this can flood your cuticles. It's opaque in 3 thin coats and dries fast. Because of all the shimmer, it shines of the nail all on its own.

I like it, but it's just a little to much like a foil for me. I only tend to pull this out when it's really cold outside or snowing. It just seems to go with snow so well. This is the epitome of winter in a bottle to me.

What's your favorite icy colored polish?
