NOTD - Essie No More Film

I had been sporting this bright jelly color for a week anticipating the new season.
Although this perfect shade of hot pink was so pretty and wore well, I felt there was something amiss.
Maybe it is still too cold and windy despite of the official announcement of "first day of spring" (how do they determine this anyway especially when the mayor frigging dropped the groundhog this year?) not to mention we're expecting some snow in this coming week.

So back to dark and vampy, aka the polish comfort zone for me, I dug out this from my polish box.
(Seriously, I need to stash shop more often. I found many unopened polishes, too!)


Essie No More Film





Essie No More Film is a deep violet creme with a touch of grey.
This reminds me of my other favorite, Essie Bobbing For Baubles, which would be a bluer and greyer version of No More Film.

No More Film is dark and rich, but it still has this breezy feeling to it maybe because it belong to a resort collection (2012).


It was quite tricky to capture the actual color of No More Film, so I had to roll up the blind and utilize the sunlight.
All worth it, though. 
Isn't this a beautiful color? :)


The formula is particularly excellent.
It is not too thick nor thin and applies smoothly with no streaks, which virtually makes a one-coater for me.
(I applied two coats in this case. I'd do it for you. ;))


The truth is, I feel calm and in control wearing this off-season color.
I think I will sport some more dark colors like this for a little longer without apologizing.

Come snow, come. ;)
