Nails Of The Day - I Want Candy

I thought I'd start with a little blast from the past - Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy - When I went to New York a few years ago this seemed to be the song that followed me around, it was on the in flight radio stations, and in Hershey & M&M worlds, a perfect of example of how a song gets itself imprinted on your brain. Anyway what on earth has an 80's song got to do with a nails of the day post? well candy of course :)

More specifically two sweetie toned nail polishes from Essie, first of all, the must have from last year Mint Candy Apple, a beautiful pale mint green.

Because it's a cream formulation it probably needs two coats to avoid streaking but I have to say I love these pale mint / aqua shades from spring and summer (click here to see more of my mint and aqua colours).

I thought I'd give you two posts in one though, I also on a shade from Essie called Rock Candy, drool I'm not the hugest candy rock fan give me Edinburgh rock any day, but this colour is a very pale, neutral pink shade, not the most exciting colour I admit but the type of shade we all need in our nail polish collection -this is 3 coats x

All that talk of candy is making me hungry, damn you diet!! What do you think of these candy colours?
