Zulu!

So originally I was going to tell you about my recent love affair with my OPI polishes, but then I remembered that I promised to show you Zulu.

I resisted liking this polish for so long, even when people were crowing about it nonstop. I bought Illamasqua Rampage, which isn't meant to be a dupe but is very like Zulu. I liked it well enough and thought well who needs Zulu?

And then one day I was doing a Sephora order for some Christmas gifts and BAM Zulu fell into my cart.

I really love it.

I mean, what's not to like?

It's a beautiful, beautiful color and it applied like a dream. This was a can't-stop-staring color for sure.

I got Zulu from Sephora and I am pretty sure it's still available...so if you can't live without it...get after it.

I did exactly the same thing, and now I can't believe I ever survived without it!
Seriously, SO many of the dark greens that I have accumulated (in trying for a Zulu dupe, back when it was still discontinued) were fails on me, that I thought the real thing would be as well. Like you, I almost didn't bother. Boy howdy, I'm glad I bothered.
Zulu is everything it is built up to be, and more.
Look at those pictures! They are so p-r-e-t-t-y !
I could stare at my fingers all day.
Oh, dear, does this mean I've finally gone 'round the bend?
