NOTD: Icing Marine Blue

I can't believe that I haven't done one of these in forever! I finally have some time to actually to paint my nails and post them.

I saw this color yesterday at an Icing in one of the malls that my friend works at, and I just had to have it! I was so excited that I took off my nail polish that I did the day before and went home and got to work.

What I really didn't like about this polish- well, maybe it was the brush- it dragged soo much! This is four coats just because I had to get the whole nail covered and if I didn't put a gob of nail polish on the brush there was no way I would have covered the nail.

So here we are four coats in overcast:






As you can see there is some bubbling by the tips. Overall I like the color, but the brush sucked!
Have any of you ladies tried Icing nail polish? What do you think of 'em?
Well, we finally bought the house! Here are some 'before' pics, I saw before because there needs to be some remodeling done.
We close on the 15th of this month and we are heading there today for the final inspection.

Congratulations on the house! It looks nice and roomy inside. I like that Icing color, I bought a small 5 pack of Icing and dthe bottles are smaller and I hate the brushes on them as well. They seem too rough.

Love the color! Sorry it was such a pain! Haven't tried any of these, but I like their color selections.

Thanks, Kae! Those brushes really do suck and I wish it didn't b/c I like the color too.

Olivia C. let me know if you do ever try them! I like their color selection too.

Pretty color! Too bad about the application, that takes all the fun out of it! I've never tried Icing brand, in fact, I've never seen them anywhere to buy. Congrats again on the house :)
