Nfu Oh #116
When I bought this color, I thought it was more on the side of magenta. As you can see, it is definitely not. The first coat is a semi-translucent magenta (see the edges of my nails? They are magenta) but as you add more layers the color darkens. This application was 3 coats. The result is a dark purple. If you look closely, you can see tiny pink/magenta shimmers. It's a gorgeous color! If I hadn't broke my pointer finger (far left) I'd wear this a few more days. Yep... I broke another nail. It's actually broken in this picture! I spared it for the sake of this swatch. Sadly, my nails are cut all the way down to my nail beds. I probably won't be posting for a while. The nail that broke is really gnarly and gross! It's going to take a while before it grows to a decent length.

Oh your poor nail. Hopefully it heals up real quick.
That is a gorgeous color! I am sorry that you had to cut your nails down!
That is a shame you broke a nail..
And that it quickly grows back on.
Sorry about you nail. I love this color!
Oh no I am so sorry about your broken nail! I hope it will grow back quick. *hugs* :(
The color is lovely though. You make me crave more Nfu.Ohs!
I am such a sucker for pretty purples. I just broke two nails as well, I had to cut all of them back to teeny tiny stubbles. Sucks. *sigh*
Thanks guys! This break is definitely going to take a few weeks to grow out :(
Haha! "The-swatchaholic" said *hugs* to you and that just cracks me up. You should let your followers know you don't like hugs :)
I am so glad I found another blogger that loves Nfu Ohs as much as me I think they aren't talked about enough and they have practically every color under the sun. I recently found a nail polish that is pretty much a dupe for Zulu. Yay! Since NARS are such snobs and won't release her again finally a company made a dupe. I love your posts I just went through all of them and I think you have some creative suggestions and have wonderful nails. I think I found someone I can stick with when it comes to blogging. Thanks! And may your nail grow back soon.
This looks so pretty on you! I wish Nfu Ohs were easier to get!
Sorry about your nails. This is a beautiful color though. I hope they grow quickly.
I just found your blog via ALU, and I've read all of it in one go! Really great blog, I love your pictures! I would never have thought of using a mirror for nail pics, how cool is that! :D Your nails and konadicures look great. I'll definitely be following this blog from now on, so I've added it to my bookmarks and my blogroll. :)
