China Glaze - Up & Away
Below I have on Re-Fresh Mint. This color is so refreshing (pun intended) and fun. It's very unique, and although I'm not a nail polish expert, I have never seen a color like this. It's the perfect intro color into spring this year. I can't wait to wear it on my toes with a white sundress.
