Sally Hansen-Tyin' the Knot!

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 :)
