Dusty Rose

Here's a dusty rose that is from New York Color. It's called 231, for some reason they don't put names on them. If I was going to name this I'd call it Snow on My Toes Rose. I don't know why, but I would!

I've got a lot of these, and my problem is that they come with other things when I get a pack at the Dollar Tree or in a group of polishes at Ross, they are that obligatory color that ranges from terra cotta to mauve, muted, dusty, a subtle understated color that is a good basic. Sort of like a black cardigan in your wardrobe: not fancy bling-bling, not gym clothes, just regular stuff.

This is three coats, there is a bit of a shimmer, but I call it a creme, but I'm not really good with these semi-something-or-the-other finishes.
It dried satin-like, and it dried pretty well. I think two coats would do fine, and for a no-brainer "don't want my polish to be the topic of conversation" type of polish, for 50 cents, who can complain!?

I love the silver shimmer, I also like the way it looks on my hands. To be honest, these dusty roses tend to make my hands look a little "dingy" and that's no fun.

I also love my cuticles. Hey, what can I say? There are days when it looks like I've spent all morning digging for root vegetables, then there are moments when it comes together. Yay!

Thanks for reading my journal!!
