Essie Aruba Blue


Essie Aruba Blue was an absent-minded purchase, I needed a new color... something...Anything! With that I grabbed Aruba Blue off the shelf and wore it. It's a deep blue shimmer, a lot more blue than OPI Yoga-ta get this Blue with brighter shimmer. 3 coats, doesn't dry as fast as I'd like and stains a little. However, it is a brilliantly bright blue, so that's expected.


Here it is with Deborah Lippmann - Stairway to Heaven over it. It makes for an interesting combination! I do love that glitter.. it's so unique and useful.

    1. I think the shimmer on this one was fighting with the glitter, but STH is always pretty, I find. Yay layering!
