Old bottles of polish: Clarins #201 Acajou Mahogany


Hello everyone!

Clarins 201 Acajou Mahogany


Today I want to show you one of my old nail polishes: Clarins #201 Acajou Mahogany. I hope it didn't stand on a shelf next to #230...

I don't know why I stopped using brown nail polish. For a while I only used this polish. I don't remember when I bought it, but I think it must have been around year 2000. And this is my second bottle! Lol! But I remember the day I bought the first one... (not the year...) ...because I was on vacation in Berlin, and was looking for a good foundation, and the kind lady working there (KaDeWe?) tried to find colors that suited me, and I got my makeup done for free. She taught me how to use the makeup, and gave me a drawing of what she had done. It was such a nice experience. She didn't have any customers, and seemed to have a lot of time. I bought everything she had used, except for the foundation and the mascara. It was the first time I had makeup that was chosen for me, and it took many years before I had to buy a new eyeshadow. I still have the makeup, if you are interested in seeing vintage makeup. And later that day I went to Hard Rock Cafe with my friends, and I had something Mexican for dinner.

This polish had not been used the last years, so it had become a little thick. Next time I will add a little thinner. On these photos I'm wearing two coats. Some of the pictures are taken in daylight, and some inside in the light from a lamp. On the few that are taken in sunshine you can see the shimmer.

Clarins was just taken off the cruelty- free list, but I haven't seen it on the list of companies that do test on animals yet. So I wanted to show it to you while I still feel that I can. It's sad that all the other old nail polishes I wanted to show you are on that list.
