Spring 2013 Must Haves: Yves Saint Laurent Jade Imperiale


Despite still waiting for some essential nailmail (wink-wink to our customs), I wanted to show you my so far must-haves for the coming Spring Season 2013.

I only saw one or two pictures of Yves Saint Laurent Jade Imperiale so far but one quick look at those photos were enough to yearn for it. Just look at this gorgeous, incredible greyed soft green:

I applied two coats of Yves Saint Laurent Jade Imperiale over Essence XXL Nail Thickener - no Top Coat in the photos and look at this shine!!!

For the formula I need a separate paragraph: this polish has an amazing formula. Everything about it is simply perfect, it really glides on the nail, no patchiness, streakiness, simply "incroyable" :-). Dry time is normal.

The price is steep, I paid over CHF 30.00 for it (I threw away the receipt already, I cannot give an accurate price therefore anymore :-S). While I am not often indulging in buying such expensive nailpolish this one certainly was worth the exception!!!

What do you think of Yves Saint Laurent Jade Imperiale? What polish would bring you to cross your normal expense boundaries and go for a splurge?

I bought Yves Saint Laurent Jade Imperiale at Globus.

I look forward to reading your comments - thanks for visiting!!!

  1. Oh wow! I think I may need to splurge on this. I think my biggest splurge was the Rescue Beauty Lounge Ghost for $28??? Also Chanel Peridot. You have some good taste in polish!

    1. Hi Essie, thank you :-)!!! You have Ghost? A wonderful shade.... Peridot is unfortunately a no go for my skin - sadly, but I always love to see it on loveys like you and admire how pretty it can look xxx

  2. Pretty pretty pretty! Yes, it's a must-have! I love the dustiness of it! I didn't get the other one in the collection - just a color I knew I wouldn't look good with it :)
