Blogging about nails and stay current at the same time is tricky: Your nails need to be decent for any eventuality and any release. Sadly my nails are not very good at the moment, especially the poor nail of my index finger which is slowly recovering from a bad break. But the ‘Nails Inc Diet Coke’ operation (buy 2 bottles of diet coke and grab a free polish from Nails Inc from 4 to to choose from) cannot wait for my all my nails to grow at the same length and I just had to show you this colour. Apologies for the bad pictures, hasty application (no clean up – this is raw pictures baby) and missing index finger.
This is my second and final purchase from the Nails Inc Diet Coke this January 2011 as the 2 other free shades on offer (blue and lilac pink) didn’t appeal to me. This one is simply called ‘plum’.
Coverage from one coat was very impressive but here it is with 2 coats. Like caramel I tried on yesterday, this shade is nice enough but I don’t like on me. The finish is nice, the shine is nice, but I find it a bit dull and bland on me.
I was wearing caramel all day today (the first free shade I got from this diet coke offer) and actually quite like it with a sheer coat of revlon starlight on them, but this one is not a keeper and I am not quite sure what to do with it? Does any of you like it?

Your nails look good. The polish? Unexciting.
I think your nails look great - am so envious of a lengthy nail plate - and I rather like the colour reminds me of damson jam. Jan x
