china glaze turned up turquoise (ink)

in these corona days, i need a mood lifter, so here is  china glaze's turned up turquoise from their ink collection for summer 2008.


i give up on the long mission to capture the exact amount of turquoiseness of this shade, like many more poor souls before me. after all of that suffering, i have not yet hit the spot. i will surely add more attempts here, if and when they become more successful.

while my mint fascination started not so long ago, i have been obsessed with turquoise for a long time now. and this one is vibrant and aqua-like while being neon and matte. i love it like this so much, that even though i own it for years now, i still  haven't been tempted to see how it looks with a top coat.

my experience with neons is not really vast, but i have to say that the formula of this one is not problematic at all. it dries really quickly, which is always a bonus when one is skipping a top coat.
