YSL Peace Green

*Purchased by me*

Whew, what a long break from posting! I am sorry for vanishing unannounced, but I got crazy busy with St. Patrick's Day and had no unposted swatches. Then I went right to Scotland for the Irish dance World Championships, so blogging just went out the window! I am working my way back into the swing of things and have the gorgeous YSL Peace Green for you today. Peace Green is a nice mint green with tons of pink shimmer. I love contrasting shimmer polishes, so I knew I had to have this when I first saw it. The pink shimmer really pops and makes this a winner.


This is three coats. Unfortunately, it definitely needs at least three coats and the first two coats are kind of uneven looking. The good news is that it does even out and become opaque after the third coat.


Now because Peace Green is pretty much sold out, I did try to dupe it for you. Below I tried Sally Hansen Let's Get Digital over OPI That's Hula-rious! on my index and ring fingers. It has a pink glow about it, but the shimmer is chunkier. The shimmer in Peace Green is so smooth and velvety. The mint of Peace Green is also more blue than That's Hula-rious! But you do still get the idea of the pink shimmer with mint, so maybe this will help someone!


If you are pining away for YSL Peace Green, I would try actually calling Nordstrom at 1.888.282.6060. They may be able to locate a bottle for you. Otherwise, check blog sales and FB polish groups.
