When I saw this color at my local Target, I couldn't take my eyes off of it! It's super hard to describe, though...in the bottle it looks like it might be a dark metallic taupe/charcoal/silver/brown/?/beautiful. On the nail it dries a bit more on the charcoal side, less brown than it looks in the bottle. All I can say about it is that I never want to take this color off! It's very chic and polished. These photos are 2 coats with a topcoat of SV.
If I look really hard, I can even see a slight green tint. Especially in that first picture. Maybe I'm seeing things? Who knows...
Application on this one, as with all the Sally Hansen Diamond Strength polishes, is flawless. I didn't have to do any cleanup on this one. The polish basically applied itself. Since it is a pearl/frost, care is needed with brushstrokes to avoid crazy streaky patterns on the nail.
What do you think of this color?
EDIT: I have been staring at this polish all day, and I noticed some purple tones coming out in it...almost reminds me of Chanel Paradoxal...maybe? I don't have Paradoxal, so I'm not completely sure. Anyway, just thought I'd put my two cents in about the purple :)
