And a Japanese beauty...?

Yes, you've guessed it right - today I have yet another green Zoya! This time Midori. It is not known to me if there are actually any Japanese women named Midori, but it is the word for green in their language. Apparently it's also an alcoholic beverage with a taste of melon, but the polish actually reminds me more of citrus.




Two coats, except for my terribly curly index nail, which required three coats to even out because of its impossible angles. Hmpf.

This is the most Feline-y color I can possibly imagine. It's not just any green with gold shimmer, it's an acidic, glowing, in-your-face green. It may actually have made it onto my top ...twenty or so greens. Maybe. How do you decide when you own so many anyway?

Swedish word of the day:
melon -noun melon
How hard was that?

    Midori is also a woman's name in Japanese, as well as the color green as you said :)

    I have Midori in my collection, but I cannot wear it because it' so "in-your-face" green. I thought it would be softer IRL...

    I watched this really disturbing japanese film called Midori.
    The main character was adorable, but the story was so sad and horrifying.

    This color is really pretty though.

    I instantly fell in love with this colour! It's gorgeous. Green is one of my favourite polish colours, too.

    There's also a popular violinist named Midori. :)

    Lustigt nog, med tanke på att jag är en Zoya-tjej och älskar grönt, så finns den inte i min samling. Den ser himla fin ut så förhoppningsvis kommer jag ihåg att skaffa den snart. :D
