Monday Blues: Pretty Serious BSOD

Hello my lovelies! It's Sunday night as I'm writing this and I'm very tired so I apologize in advance if my post is a little weird. The blue I'm showing you today is amazing and really deserves some better writing skills from my part. It came to me as an incredibly kind gift from Hannah and I really wasn't expecting the awesomeness that this polish is in person. Be prepared for a ton of pictures of this beauty because it was really hard to choose just a few.

I really love the name of this polish! Well, I think none of us likes the dreaded "blue screen of death", and after 20 years as a Windows user, I've had a lot of these, believe me. But the name makes me a little nostalgic and reminds me of the 90's, back when the blue screen was a common thing. The polish however is nothing like that blue because it's full of pretty sparkles that the dreaded Windows screen lacks.

BSOD consists of a blue jelly that is packed with tiny light blue glitters. The fact that it's a jelly makes the sparkles stand out perfectly. The glitter is so tiny and delicate that you don't even need the foil method to remove this. It comes off like a regular shimmery polish but it's so much more!

Application was very smooth and the polish glided on like butter on the nail. 2 coats are pretty opaque but I did 3 just to get rid of any visible nail line and intensify the color. I finished everything with a coat of Essence Better than Gel Nails top coat.

I also added some stamping on the second day because I got my m27 plate from Konad and couldn't wait to try it out. I used Konad White to stamp the fish and I love how it came out.

I really hope you enjoyed my pictures of this amazing blue polish. I have a lot of shimmery blues in my collection but nothing quite like it. To see some more Monday Blues, check out the links below:
