Nyx Girls - Alaskan Wild

APPLICATION: Smooth
COATS: 2, although 3 would have been better
TOPCOAT?: Only in sunlight photo.
SOURCE: Nail supply store in downtown Los Angeles
COMMENTS: I purchased a number of green, blue, and blue-green Nyx Girls polish the last time I was at the store downtown as I had never seen them before. This is a gorgeous green that was hard to capture on camera in the artificial light (my camera kept making it look like it had more yellow in it). I created an accent nail with Nyx Girls - Emerald Forest, which is absolutely stunning. I'll have to wear that one in a full manicure sometime.


Two coats, no topcoat:



Sunlight the next day - with topcoat and most color accurate:

Unfortunately this green stained my nails (especially my middle finger), so double up on topcoat if you have this one.
