Essie Da Bush and Nicole Brilliant Idea

Speaking of how much I love Essie Da Bush...

I've been wearing it a lot lately. Though, after a while, I just can't look at a plain creme mani (as much as I love them) and I have to do something to it. Usually I Konad over them, but this time I wanted something sparkly.


This is Essie Da Bush with a coat of Nicole By OPI Brilliant Idea over the thumbs (not shown) and ring fingers. I would have done all the fingers but I was in a hurry to get out the door, so accent nails it was. The pea green shade of Nicole Brilliant Idea is perfect over the creamy grey-green of Da Bush. Still don't like that name. The glitter is pretty flat for such a chunky/large glitter and it's really shiny.

Just thought I'd share... I really like how these colors look together.

    Beautiful! I'm wearing Stranger Tides from OPI's Pirates collection. The color seems almost identical to Da Bush--what do you think?

    Yay, more "ugly" green nails! Haha I am always a fan. And Brilliant Idea is one of my favorite glitters.

    Lovely! I would also be interested to see how similar it is to OPI Stranger Tides which I am wearing now. It looks pretty close in the pics

    I love green nail polishes, but they also look bad on me I feel. Yet, I always try. I feel my pastey butt could pull this color off.

    Oooo, pretty! I dig the glittery accent nail look. I might try that with some of my blues. :)

    What a hideous name for a beautiful polish. Love the accent nail. I'm wearing an accent nail on both middle fingers. The reason is my polish has chipped on the tip because of peeling nail tips. Lippmann's Today Was a Fairytale covers beautifully.

    Super combo and I am usually not a Nicole fan at all. Wondering what the greenish glitter shade in the Burlesque collection would look like over Da Bush? Or maybe a little contrast over Da Bush ith OPI Spark De Trompie? I gotta go looking for this mini Essie summer collection. I NEED at least Da Bush.

    Yes, I am interested in seeing a comparison pic of Stranger Tides, Da Bush and Sew Psyched. They seem to be very similar.
