Essie Body Language
I love doing designs on white, but white can look really stark against my skin. As such, I prefer to use an off-white, neutral-ly color like this one when I can get away with a substitute. This color is one of my favorites! I used two coats with no top coat in the pictures shown above.
On a side note, this is what I started out with for my Birch/Pink Nike Vandal nail look. My nails look ridiculously long in these swatches without the design! This is probably the longest I've ever grown out my nails.

I'm not much of a white fan, either. I like that that color is a bit gray-putty tinged, lol! And your nails are gorgeous. I envy you your long nail beds!

I have never heard of this color, but its a great one. I'll have to add this to my list of Essies I want.
Whoa, that is a PERFECT off-white color! I always find that the lighter the color, the longer nails tend to look and that is very true for you! Your nails just look so...long and awesome *pets*
I'v always been so against neutral colours but now I'm starting to fall in love with them! This one is uber pretty and suits your skin tone really well =]
I love your long nails btw, they look amazing!
I have a hard time growing my nails as long as yours (Envy). I'm scared to do white nails :O.
@ anon: lulz haterrr!
@ ana: thank you! you described this color perfectly. i don't know how to describe it other than off white, lol!
@ dablacksjp: thanks!!
@ rosalinda: i hadn't heard of this color before i saw it in stores either. i was really lucky and found this on sale for like a dollar or two!
@ exah: haha really?! i never knew that! i think nails tend to look shorter with designs though, because they distract you from the length of the nails lol
@ sara: meeee too! i think you just have to find the right one. then it's <3333
@ jenni: loll, it helps that i don't use them much. you should totally try out white nails! there's a first for everything (;
Wow, wow, WOW !!! SO, so pretty !! Your nails are really beautiful and this color was made for you.
I'd love a nude color to fit that good on me but unfortunately, all the shades I tried made my hands looks like corpses' :'(((
