Monday, March 1st, 2010 Going Green: China Glaze Emerald Sparkle
Happy Monday! Hope y'all had a wonderful weekend. It's officially March, can you believe it? A month long celebration of green is in order, don't ya think? Today I'm starting out with one of my favorite greens from China Glaze.
Let me count the ways I love thee! Emerald Sparkle is a deep emerald green that's ridiculous. This little package has it all - glitter, sparkle and color. It's dazzling in all ways. The application is great too, two coats for full coverage.
Check out a mattified version below.
You can still find Emerald Sparkle at Head2Toe, TransDesign and other e-tailers. What's your favorite green? Have a wonderful night!

Hi Jw,

THIS is my favorite green :).
It's quite literally the only polish that not only lived up to every single swatch I viewed online, but surpassed them when I wore it. It's simply that good.
(And I want it in navy blue and purple!)

Such a beautiful color! It reminds me that I haven't worn mine in a while. I wish I could paint my nails as neatly as you!

I love your idea of a monthlong celebration of green! I\'m even going to use my green sheer as a topcoat for a french manicure. (One of those I bought because it looked wonderful in the bottle and when I put it on I realized it was super sheer.) I\'ve got about 8 different bottles of green and I\'m going to use them all this month. And I recently got the Milani Nail Art w/precision brush in Green Sketch, so I might attempt a cloverleaf, too.

I LOVE Orly Enchanted Forest with a gold holo on top! So far I haven't found Sinfulcolors green ocean but there still are a few Walgreens I haven't been to.
