American Apparel Malibu Green

    I haven't shown a bright color in a while (I suck at summer), so for today, I have American Apparel Malibu Green.

Malibu Green is not really green...it's more of a green-leaning teal than anything. A saturated, bright, green-leaning teal. 


Sunlight, no flash.


Natural light, no flash.

    I was planning on giving Malibu Green to my sister, but now, I think I'm gonna keep it. It's so pretty and cheerful, and is perfect for warmer weather. I also think it is very flattering on my skin, and will definitely be wearing it as a pedi this summer. I must admit that my soul burns a bit because this polish is from Satan American Apparel and I HATE them and promised myself that I'd never own their shit. But I have pretty much no self-control, so....yeah. 
  In terms of application, Malibu Green was quite good. I used two coats of color for the pictures, and there was no dragging or streaking. There are some weird-looking spots on the corners of my nails in the pictures, but that's from the ridiculously thick Poshe that I refuse to give up on. 

And that's all I've got for today! Thanks for reading and enjoy your Sunday! 
I know I will, because I'm going home home homeee!  ^______^

Omg, I couldn't go into that place...I bought this from a blog sale! :D
But no...I didn't think of that at all. :(

And I'm excited that you're on a teal/turquoise kick. I'm starting to want them too, and can't wait to see what kind of awesome teal frankens and colors you post. n_n
LOVE THIS COLOR. Oh it makes me think of summer.. I'm so ready for summer.
It looks awesome on you!

Thanks girl, I'm glad you like it. :D
I think it would look really good on you too, even if the brand owner is Satan. :(
Why do you hate them so much? :O
Such a beautiful colour! Love it with your skincolour; I, being pale, can't rock these kind of polishes ): Get lobsterhands all the time!

Their ads are skeevy...they make me feel like a pedophile.
And their boss man is a pig.
And the clothes have the nerve to be ugly and overpriced on top of it all.
Three strikes, so they are outtt.

And thanks! Although it's too bad about the lobsterhands. Pale girls are lucky ducks too in their own way though...deep greens and blues, and cherry reds look so stunning on you guys! n_n
Ah, couldn't know. Living in Russia, I've heard so little of them. Thanks for letting know!

You're right, but don't we all sometimes wish all of these would look great on any of us? (:

Ahh that's so cool! That you live in Russia, I mean. It never fails to amaze me how there are so many polish fanatics all over the world.
And yep, we sure do. *sigh*
Looks stunning on you! Wow!

Thank you so much! n_n
This is soooo smoking on you! Any trouble with staining on this one?

and I totally agree with you about AA... I feel hatred for the company, yet still buy their polish! What is wrong with me?!

Aw thank you!
There was a bit of staining, but not anything too bad. I would double up on basecoat with this one though.

And what's wrong with you is what is wrong with so many of us...we're addicts and can't control ourselfes. =/

Gorgeous colour, really suits you

OMG, this color is amazing. i didn't even know AA sold nail polish. I'm going to buy this shade or one just like it because I've been seeing it so much lately. This color looks great on you too and I didn't even notice the corner of your nail. I think the bright color is beautiful and would actually go with a lot of summery clothes.
You have a great blog! And thanks for your comment on the Arnold post, I totally agree with you, I think I would probably keep my mouth shut too. :) Have a great weekend

Yeah, I don't think they advertise it very much. They should though, because they actually have some beautiful colors in their lineup.
And yay, if you pick it up (or something like it) I hope you like it! Teal-turquoise is a great color because I really feel like there's a shade for everyone.
Thanks for commenting, and have a great weekend too!
