NOTD: Strange Tides
Months ago when OPI released the Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides collection, I knew immediately that there were only two polishes in the entire collection that I wanted: Skull and Glossbones, and Strange Tides.
The polish I will be sporting this entire week is none other than Strange Tides. This shade if polish is like a dirty mint green. Think Clinique green with a bit more brown thrown in. When I first put it on, I knew I was either going to really like it, or I would be horribly disappointed in it and would take it off my nails immediately. It turns out, the color works well with my skintone. Depending on the light, the green can also look brighter or darker. Yesterday when I did my nails, it was sunny - so the color was brighter. Today it's overcast and looking like rain, and the polish has taken on a stronger brown tone.
This is a color that not everyone will like. I think it's one of those shades that you really have to try for yourself before you make a decision about it.
I also noticed when I applied the polish that it looks really great on my short nails.
What do you all think of this color? Would you be game to try it? Those of you who own it already - what do you think about it?
