Nubar - Toasted Marshmallow

COMMENTS:
I learned early on that if a much lighter skinned nail blogger or swatcher found a color unflattering, it was highly likely the same color would look great on me.  This one was love at first sight.

This polish was everything but “sheer” as the name suggests. Superb 1-coat coverage meant I could get right to the nail art.

This is one of those colors that people either love or hate.  I loved that it gave me excellent coverage in 1-coat, but found the shade a bit dull to wear on its own. As usual, I threw added a little something to make it more wearable.

There's nothing like a splash of color after a day of "natural" nails. Having colors that are opaque in 1 coat also makes it easier to get right to the nail art!

I felt like wearing a fun multicolored mani. The sponged base colors didn't come out as deep as I intended but the end result was still enjoyable.

I wanted to wear this lovely neutral again, but with a twist.

Since this is one of my favorite hues of green, it was bound to be a winning mani no matter what I did with it. I like the finished look with the foil.

Another fun application of nail foils.  I really should use these more often.
