I was worried it might be harsh or drying but my hands felt the same as always. Hope it helps someone else with this problem.
That's an excellent tip! ^ When I do wear polish on my fingers, it's always a light color because I spend my days typing and tend to chip them easily (plus my nails grow out quickly and I hate the look of grow-out on long nails). On my toes, however, I do go much darker...I'm still using Mrs. O'Leary's BBQ from the Chicago OPI series rather than a blacker polish, though I might give that a go!
