Depend #260

Green! I love me some green! It’s been my favourite colour ever since I outgrew my all-black phase, which was close to ten years ago (yelp! I’m getting old(er)!). Especially darker greens set my heart a-flutter, so of course I look for those colours in my nail polish choices as well.

Here’s one from Depend, again without a decent name. It is simply known as “260”, which is short and efficient, albeit dead dull. The polish itself is not. Dead dull, I mean. I don’t know how a polish would be short and efficient, so I can’t say if it is or isn’t…

Aaaaanyway, sidetracked! 260 is a gorgeous dark green creme. It looks a lot lighter in the bottle than it does on the nail, and quite a lot greyer/dustier too. There is a grey-ish element to it even when applied and dried, but it’s a much less marked element than what the bottle would have you believe. The formula is quite nice. I can’t remember if I used two or three coats here, but three is probably better to get rid of the last streakiness, unless you apply it with utmost care.
