Manicure Monday: Essie Generation Zen

Well, I told you that I was going to pick up more of the Serene Slates collection from Essie and I did just that. About two weeks ago I bought the next shade I wanted to try called "Generation Zen". It is described as a 'mauve taupe grey' which I think is very true to what this color looks like.

It is definitely a deep grey, but does also have a bit of mauve undertone. It has that hint of purple and I think it deepens the color and adds really nice dimension.

The formula is the same as the other shade I tried, 'On Mute' and applies just as creamy and smooth. I think this one might be a little harder to not get on your cuticles but it was fine.

'Generation Zen' is the perfect winter color and I'm sad that it's almost time to stop wearing dark colors. It looks so beautiful on the nails, has a great amount of shine and really is an ideal dark shade.

To hear more about my thoughts on the new Serene Slates collection, head to my last Manicure Monday post. 

I have to just say again how much I love this collection and I can't wait to get my hands on other colors!

What is on your nails this Monday?
