Catch Me In your Nap, I mean Net- An Old NOTD

I'm tired. But in a good way. The accomplished sort of way. So this week I moved and started a new job. The job is going well so far, it's just retail at a department-type store, but I'm applying for a position at a makeup counter within the store next week and I hope I get it! I have to interview with the regional manager, but the store manager told me he hopes I get it because I would be great for the job. It was really nice to hear that and finally feel competent for once.

So the title of the post probably doesn't make much sense yet, but here it is. I haven't had time to take any new pictures recently so I'm going to show you a swatch of OPI's Catch Me In Your Net that's at least 6 months old. The nap part of the title refers to the fact that I, well, could use one!

On to the swatches! CMIYN is pretty sheer so I'm guessing this was 3 or 4 coats. They apply smoothly and dry fairly quickly. Of course there are a zillion dupes of this by now, so if not this OPI, you definitely need one of the others!  This one was limited edition anyway and is probably harder to find.

Do you own any of the numerous dupes of this color?

      Thank you Cait, even a little part time thing does wonders for my self esteem.

    Good luck with the counter job, but congrats on getting so much accomplished already!!

    I love CMINYN. I forget if Zoya's Charla is supposed to be a dupe (I haven't used it in at least a year), but I have that one. Guess it's probably about time to dig it out again!

      It feels like I slide back a lot, but I still have managed to accomplish some things in that time.

      Yes, Charla is one of the dupes! I'm like that with polishes; I wear them once and forget about them. Or even worse, I buy them and never wear them because I have too many!

    Congrats about the job! I knew things would start picking up for you. :) I have CMIYN and I love it for summer pedicures.

      Thanks Chris! To be honest, the bad times are just as bad as they were at the beginning, but I feel better about myself that I'm making progress in some areas of my life. How many coats of CMIYN do you have to use?

      Usually 2. It's surprisingly cooperative. :)

      Well, psyched isn't in my repertoire of feelings anymore, but pretty damn close, haha. Everything has to get better eventually, especially if I keep working for it.

      Wet n Wild Teal of Fortune is pretty close (just not as much shimmer) and it's a lot cheaper and easier to find!

    Congratulations on the job! I hope you get the one at the makeup counter.
    I too wish I had a dupe of this, or even the original.
