Against my better judgment... L'Oreal Rendezvous

It is really hard to just, like, not do my nails, even after the heinous break I suffered ON MY SWATCH HAND last Friday, so I thought to myself, Self, why don't you give some of these reds you've suddenly been accumulating some love?  I thought that was a lovely idea, so I painted my nubs last night with the idea that I'd mess around with some new topcoats I recently picked up.  But, I liked how this looked enough to leave it alone, even with the nubs.
This is L'Oreal Rendezvous, a bright, juicy, tomato red jelly.




 I get the appeal of reds on shorter nails now!  Good thing, because this is what I'm stuck with for a while. lol.  I like this polish.  It isn't my favorite shade of red, but I love how shiny and squishy it looks.  These L'Oreals, though... I'm continuously impressed by how easy they are to apply.  Also, this is my first experience with a darker jelly, and I totally get why everyone loves them so.

    Love this red. I am only wary of reds because I don't want the staining from such a deep, rich color so when I wear it I always use 2 coats of base polish. It looks great on you.

      Thanks Cee! I'm kind of interested to see how much my tipwear will improve since I'm now lacking in that department.
