NOTD: Epidote by JINsoon

The polishes in the JINsoon Tibi collection are named after the minerals that inspired them, and epidote crystals are characteristically green in color.  The polish Epidote, however, reminds me of the poison apple from Snow White, or better yet, the tree that it grew from.  Perhaps my imagination is a bit out there, but this morpher changes with the light from shades of rust to emerald, and I envision a pulsating apple that is just inviting you to take a bite.  At your own risk, of course.

Because there is a poison apple tree.  It's called Manchineel, or "little apple of death", and it's one of the most poisonous trees in the world.  If you stand under this tree while it's raining, your skin will blister.  The smoke from a burning Manchineel tree can cause blindness.  The Carib used the sap to poison the tips of their arrows and would tie unfortunate prisoners to the tree, ensuring a slow and painful death.

Epidote is a beauty, and I'm again impressed with JINsoon polish quality and wear time.  I used two coats with a base and top coat, and application was problem free.  I wore Epidote for 5 days and had some tip wear but no chipping. 

I'm thinking Epidote is a great color for fall and Halloween, what say you?
