OPI Mermaid Tears

Mermaid Tears....





Mermaid Tears is this crazy beautiful light dusty, jade, blue, green, sea colored polish... I can't even explain it... The formula on this wasn't the best, but then again, it's (sort of) a pastel... I heard that pastels don't have the best formula/application. I mean, it wasn't horrible... just a little streaky. The dry time on this was lightning fast!!! Seriously!! This is three thin coats.

To be honest, I have mix feelings about this color. I like it but I don't feel it's that unique. It's close to NOPI My Lifesaver and a shade or two darker than Revlon Minted. (comparison post perhaps??) I had this on for only a couple hours and it started chipping, but my friend had it on for a week with minor chipping/tip wear. So ya, not sure what to think.

What are your thoughts??

I'd be very interested in seeing a comparison post of this shade with Revlon "Minted"... It may be another from the pirates collection that that I have to reverse on and buy ;)
