On my way home from work yesterday I stopped by H&M and I found this beauty, and I just had to have it! It the most perfect mint green I own, it's one tone lighter than in the picture. Lighter than Claire's Dream Catcher and definitely more green than Essie Mint Candy Apple and Eyeko Vintage. It's just lovely!
Isadora Vintage Mint
This gorgeous mint green seem to be a part of the Isadora spring collection, I normally don't buy Isadora cause I think their colours are boring, normally a bunch of reds and pinks, and you get very little polish for the money, 6ml for roughly $11, but I couldn't pass this one up! Definitely a must have for me, especially after being a little dissapointed in all the blue toned mint "greens". This is three thin coats and the application was interesting. First coat was streaky but it got better and smoother with more coats, what was interesting though is their brush. It says Wide Brush on the bottle and they weren't kidding! Imagine OPI's Pro Wide Brush and add 50% to that. It's wide, kind of long and thick and full! I could easily cover a whole nail in one stroak but the way the brush was shaped made it a little hard to get a nice curve around the cuticles. I also ended up fanning the brush a bit too much sometimes and got polish outside of the nail. Took a little clean up after I was done, but maybe with practice I'll learn to use their brush. Overall I'm happy with the polish, and the colour was a nice surprise for an Isadora!

Oooo, that is beautiful!
That is a pretty mint green, and it doesn't do that 'red fingers' thing to your skin tone.
That's a pretty one, a tad darker than the one I own.. I guess I like this one better!
The brush and the application seems 50/50 for me. I'll have to keep an eye on this brand, but this color is very pretty!
Beautiful color. Looks very good on you.
I hear you about the blue toned mint greens (though they're pretty in their own way too...they're just not mint green!)
This one is a very pretty color, thanks for sharing :)
Such a pretty color, I loveee mint greens! I've never heard of the brand before though! :) xo
@Caitlin Isadora is a Swedish brand, but supposedly available worldwide. You can find them pretty much anywhere here in Sweden but I'd try checking H&M stores for other countries.

Vintage Mint is such an accurate name for this colour. It's gorgeous! :)
Would you mind saying what part of the country that H&M is in? I've been checking all the NYC H&Ms and no one has isadora nail polishes :P
@MoLo I'm from Sweden so I'm not sure where to find Isadora in stores in the US, H&M stores was just a guess. I googled and found an online store though, www.costmeticmall.com. They sell Isadora and this shade is available on 4/04/10 according to their site :)
www.cosmeticmall.com even, just noticed the typo :P
Thanks so much, that's really helpful :)

The Eastern Daily Press organised a campaign against the perceived unattractiveness of the designs, the proposed reduction in the number of stalls which would mean stallholders losing their jobs and the remaining stallholders facing rent increases to cover the difference, and the change to the character of central Norwich that such a radical redesign of the market would entail. A petition of over 12,000 signatories rejecting all three proposed designs was gathered.
