Mint Manis for Talia Joy

Hi everyone! Today I have an extra special post for you. The world lost an bit of sunshine this week when 13 year old YouTube beauty blogger Talia Joy Castellano lost her battle with childhood cancer. I personally was/am inspired by Talia, her smile was so bright and watching her live her life with such passion would've touched anyone, and did--her videos have been watched by so many people around the world.

Talia's last Instagram photo was a picture of her and her mom and sister wearing a mint creme polish, so as a sign of support for her life and legacy, the blogging community is posting mint manicures for her today.

I chose Mint Original Mint with an accent nail of Zoya Vespa. Original Mint is described as "part Tiffany's blue, part spearmint candy" which I feel is quite accurate. It's a great cream polish that applies like butter. Two coats. Vespa is a matte sparkle textured polish described as "a mint kiss with a sugared sparkle". I love this mani and I am wearing it with a heart full of admiration for the undeniable spirit of Talia Joy.
