Twinsie Tuesday - First polish you ever swatched on your blog

My very first posts here were horrendous attempts at nail art, and the first polish I ever actually swatched wasn't until November 11th, 2011. NailsLikeLace was nearly a year old! Granted, I only posted a few times a month in the first year, and actually skipped Feb-June altogether!

I think I had something against swatches for quite awhile. I rarely did swatch posts in the beginning, and almost always tried to include nail art pictures in the same post.

I guess I thought they were boring and pointless, so I stuck with (a poor excuse for) art.

My swatch from two years ago:

*gag*

My first swatch here was a Nicole by OPI Khloe Had a Little Lam-Lam.

And now:

This color remains one of my favorite darkened teals! It is gorgeous!
