Mmmm, Spring should be just a little bit BRIGHTER!.......My CND nail color review

When it comes to nude nails CND's (Creative Nail Design) Desert Suede is pretty much a keeper. This color goes right along w/ the new spring-like pastels that are all over the runways right now. Also, no need to change colors when changing outfits this goes with every thing even for those yearning a no polish look. Its texture is smooth, reminiscent of creamy butterscotch with a faint touch o' peach. I'd give it about a 7 on the fabulous scale no higher only because I REALLY enjoy color and a little more funk to my nails. Also, after a couple of days it started to chip and it only took that long for the dull factor to set in. Tip: after the first 2 days, keep a bottle of shiny top coat on hand, you'll definitely need it. The CND Gold Shimmer was brighter and worked well but I'd probably wear it alone w/ a triple coat. I applied it over the nude color and it looked a little too cheesy for my taste, but, could just be me, maybe I'm missing the ka-pow colors, feathers and rhinestones I'm used to. Again, these colors are good, but Spring should be just a little bit brighter!
