Tiffany & Co. Nails (China Glaze For Audrey)


I've always loved the idea of having nails that match Tiffany & Co.'s infamous blue, and thanks to China Glaze's For Audrey, now they do!

If you've read my previous reviews of China Glaze (see here, for example), you'll know that I'm not the biggest fan of China Glaze's formulas and often find their polishes hard to work with. However, For Audrey didn't cause me any problems and was opaque in only two coats. The polish itself dries a little dull but nothing some top coat can't fix.

Taking from my "inspiration," I decided to use this mani to pay homage to the blue boxes Tiffany & Co. is known for. I didn't want to go overboard on every nail so these simple free-handed bows on my ring fingers created just the look I was going for.

And as a special treat for my readers, Nail Polish Canada is offering 50% off China Glaze For Audrey with the coupon code ALISONELLE (Expires Dec. 23, 2011).

If you haven't heard of Nail Polish Canada, it's a great alternative to sites like 8ty8beauty and Transdesign because shipping is much cheaper for Canadians, they have a wide selection of brands, and their hot deals section is pretty awesome. Plus, how can you not love a company with a sense of humour? Check out their charitable organization, Adopt A Polish, where you can give needy nail polish a new home!

  24. i use to work for tiffany & co.. so anything reminiscent of the blue box and bow makes me so happy!! i love that you actually put a white bow on one of your nails that is SO CUTE!

  26. I have this colour and I love it too! :) But wow, never noticed how accurately close it was to Tiffany's.

    ReplyDelete
  27. That bow is awesome! So very very Tiffany's.

    It's a great shade too, exactly what I am looking for. I find OPI lacks blues and greens. Thank you so much for this post and your coupon code

  30. I have this colour and I love it! I know what you mean about the China Glaze formula though. I really hate some of them, and I find the brush so frustrating to work with!

    I'm planning on doing something fun with this shade over the holidays :) I've never checked out Nail Polish Canada, thanks for the info! :)
