Saw a new display of L'Oreal nail polishes the other day. I don't know if the shades are all new or not, but I never noticed them before. This was the only one that caught my eye, so it came home with me.

L'Oreal VIP Status. On my nails, it's a blackened teal shimmer, borderline frost. The reason I got it is because it looked like it had a strong purple duochrome in the bottle, but maybe it was the store lighting or just my eyes playing tricks on me, but I see zero purple in this color when it's on my nails. It's still pretty, but in the bottle it looked more like a teal-on-brownish purple duochrome, sort of like MAC Club eyeshadow, but bluer.

Application was okay, formula was a little thin but not too bad. The brush was squared at the bottom so it wasn't as easy to get a nice curve with it, but it's definitely not the worst drugstore brush or formula I've ever used.
