Hello, can we talk about how fabulous my nails look folks? Grey is normally a color associated with gloom and doom, not my utmost happiness. A darker shade of grey with just a hint of a lilac undertone, Symmetric nail polish (by Np2) is a nice alternative to the dark blues, purples and browns we have been seeing a lot of this winter.

Np2, launched in April 2009, has a total of 32 gorgeous colors that are sure to impress. Np2 is unique because of its 2-in-1 bottle that has a base shade (no need for base coat) and a top coat for longer wear. The top coat bottle snaps right into place on top of the base shade, making it easier for storage and traveling. Np2 claims that each bottle contains enough polish for 100 applications.

While the look of the top coat isn’t quite as shiny as I tend to prefer, I love everything else about the polish. The application is smooth, the dry time is relatively short and the wear is long lasting. That photo of my nails? Day 3 and still no chips at all, which is a feat for me and my nail-abusive behavior. Each 2-in-1 bottle of Np2 retails for $22.50 and can be bought online.
