NOTD: Iced Strawberry

Nail polish is not something I usually spend an excessive amount of money on, which is why I surprised myself when I popped NARS' Thakoon Nail Polish in Ratin Jot in my virtual shopping bag a couple of weeks ago.

But sometimes nail shades are just too irresistable. Ratin Jot is the perfect cool pink, and the risk I took by paying almost £13 for the pleasure has paid off. The application was almost seamless and the colour payoff was instant after one coat, which is pretty amazing.

I did have my doubts about NARS as a nail brand - I just didn't put the two together - but now I'll be adding to my collection. After the spending ban of course...
