OPI’s Jade Is The New Black

As if I don’t already have way too many nail polishes to play with, LeGeeque and I have now started a swapping system where we borrow each other’s nail polishes to play with. We also have a *geek alert* database on Google Docs where we enter the details of all the nail polishes we have so that we can choose from each other’s lists. Okay, she has her database. I’ve yet to complete mine. Or start on it πŸ˜›

Today’s nail polish, OPI’s Jade is the New Black, actually belongs to LeGeeque. If you’ve watched one of Lisa Eldridge’s videos, you’ll notice that this is one of her favourite nail polishes. It’s no wonder too, because it’s an unique green that I’ve never worn before.

Lisa called it a very modern green to wear, and I couldn’t agree with her more. I’m so used to wearing blue-green, lime green, very dark shimmery green, but never just green. It goes well with summery dresses, with dark denim, with…well, anything!

    It’s actually surprisingly not a bad colour! Maybe Jade really IS the new black!!

      Norlin: Hahaha I didn’t think I’d like the green this much. Pink is no longer the new black. It’s green! Hee hee πŸ˜›

    i got a similar shade from sportsgirl! been seeing that shade of green everywhere and was in love with it so i bought a headband in that colour too (also from sportsgirl hehe)

    1. Tine

      Julie: Good for you! It will be cheaper from Sportsgirl too. Score πŸ˜›

  12. Christina

    I agree. this is by far the best green nail colour I’ve ever bought. I’ve never liked any other colour ever since!

    1. Tine

      Christina: I highly agree. For a proper green (not teal, not turquoise, not lime, etc), this is the best I’ve tried. Too bad it isn’t mine πŸ˜›
