Essie Bangle Jangle

This is a colour I picked up from Essie's Winter 2011 collection. I picked up another too, which I will review possibly tomorrow. I didn't really care for this collection, because it's not very wintery to me. This colour is a light pastel purple, which is the only reason I bought it. Purple is my favourite colour. Here is 1 coat:
This went on nicer than I had expected. I have only ever used 1 Essie colour before, and it was very watery and thin, and put me off Essie polishes. But I have to say, I was impressed with this one, and I'd say my opinion has changed on Essie. This coat is still sheer, but has a thicker texture than I was expecting. Here is 2 coats:
This turned out nicer than I thought. I didn't need 3 coats, which I usually do with thinner colours like this one. I found that this one dried a LOT darker than the bottle shows though, as you can somewhat see in this photo. I liked it better in the bottle :( Anyways, I enjoy this colour overall, and would recommend it. Not very Chriatmassy though, right?

I decided to add a small touch to my thumbs with my new nail discs I got for Christmas. I'll post a picture of them later. My boyfriend's mom found them for me somewhere, and didn't even have to order them online! I also got my mom to order some for me for Christmas from Bundle Monster, but they still haven't arrived yet! I am waiting VERY impatiently for them. Anyways, here is my thumb designs:
It looks like a cute corset design, and I thought it'd be cute. I need to learn to place them better, though. Haha. Anyways, I'm headed to bed. Night!
