American Apparel - L'Esprit
Hi Sweets,
Spring is not really showing it's face at the moment, so I've decided to paint some spring on my nails. Pastels have returned in all the fashion magazines, blogs and shops.
I've been eying a nail polish from OPI's new collection; 'Euro Centrale', but first wanted to take a look in my own collection to see if I would have something similar before buying it.
Meet 'L'Esprit from American Apparel, waiting in a drawer for me to use it again. I had completely forgotten about this color. I guess I saved myself some money.
This nail polish is free of DBP, Toluene and Formaldehyde. It's a beautiful pastel lavender with a cream finish. It is opaque after one coat. When I put on two coats, it starts to get a bit thick, but that might say more about my manicure skills. I did apply a base and top coat. Can't go without those anymore.
Do you have a favorite spring shade?
Love,

Smoon, have you ever tried to do "marble nails"? Maybe you should do it and share it here someday. I love your blog! x
ReplyDeleteMy top two favorites are Peacock and Office from American Apparel. I always have a hard time deciding between the two when Spring is near! I'm wearing Office right now, in fact.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful nail polish!! Love the colour! I never saw it in any shop, now I'll have a look around...
ReplyDeleteWell, I do not have a favourite spring shade, that's why I'm always looking for suggestions everywhere, I never decide myself! Thanks for that! =)
looks nice :) my fav spring-ish one is a light pink nailpolish from miss sporty (I have no idea if it's aviable everywhere)
ReplyDeletebtw I've seen your Retrospect-behind the scenes photos and I have to say, you're an amazing photographer! :)
Mint color is my signature ;)
ReplyDeleteThis is a lovely color! I always felt weird wearing these pastels colors, but now it's sunddenly trendy again! nail polishes which are opaque after one coat are the best, and hard to find...
ReplyDeleteHi Simone! have you ever tried any Inglot nail polish?
ReplyDeleteI'm an Inglot Makeup Artist and I can tell you that all the Inglot nail polish are free of toluene- formaldehyde- dibutyl phthalate(DBP)- camphor AND are NOT tested on animals!!!
If you ever want to try some Inglot product, please contact me (you have my email) and I will contact directly my boss for you!
Simone, why did you deleted your YouTube Account?
ReplyDeleteHi Leticia, I simply didn't have time to maintain it.
DeleteUnderstand, fans, please :)
DeleteI thought it was because of spammers harassing you? The Q&A video that was done awhile ago was very dear to my heart because a question I submitted was answered on it. Doesn't matter anyway, I watched it so many times that I have memorized the scene.
DeleteYou do know that someone else has re-uploaded several of your deleted videos? I'm hoping he doesn't get into trouble for doing that, I'm assuming that's breaking your copyright or something.
Hi Simone, what your favorite color ?
ReplyDeleteSimone love you you sweet is color super !!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWow Simone! that color is so pretty! I can imagine how cool it looks on dark skin!
ReplyDeletehaha omg! I bought exactly that same tone from another brand a few days ago and today I painted my nails with it, what a coincidence :)
ReplyDeleteSame colour as the wallpaper in the spare bedroom in my house.
ReplyDeleteI like pastels colors for my nails, above all blue and purple :)
