Topic Tuesday: First Mainstream and Indie Polishes

I think my first mainstream polish was Barry M Navy, or La Femme black in around 1998 and my first indie polish was KPT Color Therapy in around 2013.

 

   

Topic Tuesday: Brand Firsts

Before I began blogging 10 years ago and dipped a fingertip in the world of colour I rotated between Barry M Black, Barry M Navy, Barry M Vivid Purple and La Femme Black. I rotated those polishes for 10 plus years before expanding my collection.

Swatch: NYC - West Village 204B Polish

This is a crème finish nail polish, it has no shimmer to it despite it looking as it does with the flash. It is a deep dark blue, a true navy. What I like about this polish is while it is dark on the nail you can tell its navy rather than black.
