tomboy with a nail polish problem | mostly lacquer & unboxings
All right, just about caught up now! This is Revlon Parfumerie Italian Leather, part of a discontinued line of scented nail polishes from a few years back. https://www.instagram.com/p/B5LmVt1guTK/ Italian Leather is medium warm gray/taupe creme with a subtle, fine pale-gold shimmer throughout.
