When you ladies call a polish an "untried" does that mean you haven't worn it as a full mani +MsRed2/9/2010 2:46PM
If I wear it as a full manisuwy2/9/2010 2:49PM
for me it means I haven't worn it as a mani, I have less than 50 so all are tried as of now :)pinklatte2/9/2010 2:47PM
For me, when Ii haven't worn it for a full mani, I like to swatch as soon as I get a new polish!EnglishRoseAmongThorns2/9/2010 2:47PM
