I don’t think I’m going to call this gold, this is more Copper Goddess than Golden Goddess. Looks gorgeous when I’m outside, but the metallic shimmer really comes through when any sort of light hits it. I feel like pairing it with some Grecian goddess costume or something. Would make a great summer (and fall too) color.

Beautiful application, this was done in just two coats. Doesn’t dry as fast as specifically indicated “quick dry” polish brands but it’s pretty good and that’s normal for most other polishes. This is the first one I’ve used with Essie’s First Base, so I’ll see how long it lasts and what kind of a difference that makes.

Nearly 40% savings on the price as well! I’ve found that if you look on ebay and sort for free shipping you can get cool discounts.

My first blue! And what a blue to start with. I got so many compliments when I had this on you might have thought it hadn’t cost me more than 2 bucks! Definitely a keeper.

I mostly created this blog as a way of tracking my own foray into falling for nail polish. I'm also a university student and as such my budget is limited (thank you hikes in tuition) but I don't feel that should limit my experience at all!
