For today’s second post I’m bringing you a NOTD I wore recently. I’m still loving the sand style or liquid sand type nail polishes. So when I was in Germany and checked out local drugstore DM, it was a no brainer to pick one of these up. I found this gorgeous taupe color from P2. A brand that’s only sold in Germany and I also picked up one of their longer lasting nail polish colors in a grey/ beige/ taupe color with a purple undertone. I decided to pair them up on my nails.
I applied two coats each and went with the creamy textured Last Forever nail polish in City love on 4 of my hand’s finger nails. As an accent color I used the Sand Style polish in Strict. And oh my god, I’m in love with this color to wear on my nails. I love taupes to begin with when it comes to make up, but this grey/ mauve toned beige is perfect for a classy look. I’ve been really into wearing these more neutral shades lately. But I couldn’t help myself to pop in a touch of glitter.
The sand style polish is really really nice. It’s longlasting and has that gritty texture of a sand style polish combined with a hint of sparkle. It’s like a densely packed matte glitter with a hint of shine and I think it looks stunning on the nails. Wearing this on all nails would perhaps be a bit much for an every day nail, but by adding it to only one nail (on my middle finger) I thought it amped up the look quite nicely. It is also quite difficult to remove, so I was glad to have it applied to only one nail when it came to taking this off.

Wat een mooie combinatie!
Dank je! Ik vond hem zelf ook erg mooi. P2 heeft een aantal mooie lakjes.
[…] German drugstore brand P2 is known for its good quality polishes. So when I was in Germany last year, I wanted to try a few. I picked up this darker grey polish with a purplish undertone at that time. In a way this polish is what got my craze for finding the perfect greige nail polish started. This was the first polish I could place in that category that I owned and I wore this quite a bit during fall, as it is a perfect fall shade. I am wearing it on my nails, accompanied by a liquid sand accent nail in a similar color, also by P2, in this blog post. […]
