Blue (Da Ba Dee) - Swatches

Hi there!

I was in a blue mood today. Not a sad blue mood, but a color blue mood. I think the title is fitting. Do you remember that song from the late '90s by Eiffel 65?

Blue is probably one of my favorite colors to use. I have oodles of them, but I chose 10 to feature here.

From left to right: China Glaze - First Mate, China Glaze - Bermuda Breakaway,
China Glaze - Calypso Blue, NYC - Skin Tight Denim, and E.l.f. - Dark Navy.

They appear in this same order on my nails from thumb to pinky.

Each finger has 2 coats of polish. First Mate could have easily been left with 1 coat. Skin Tight Denim has a very subtle shimmer to it. Dark Navy looks almost black - and it dries with a much less glossy finish than the other colors.

Here are some more blues.

From left to right: L.A. Colors - Static Electricity, L.A. Colors - Wired, China Glaze -
Shower Together, China Glaze - Aqua Baby, and Sally Hansen - Blue Me Away!

Each finger has 2 coats of polish. Shower Together and Aqua Baby look almost exactly alike. Shower together has a smidge more green in it.

I'm satisfied. I hope this satisfied your blues.

Until next time...

  1. I have lots of blues.... I think it's a complex. When I was 12 I got grounded.... I asked my mom if she would buy me some blue nail polish. She said "God didn't intend for your nails to be blue". I said "Well, god didn't intend for your nails to be red, either." Hah, look at me now!
