MAC Surf Baby Ocean Dip

The weirdest thing happened to me with MAC Ocean Dip : you know how they say that a polish can pull different colors on different people... Well, I've never noticed it so obviously before or at least just with mannequin shades.
Ocean Dip seemed to have a very strong blue tint but on me the green is so strong that I can barely call it turquoise. I decided to do something I've never done : post two sets of swatches, before and after color correction. Before pics are what my camera captured and are closer to all the swatches I've seen online, after pics are what I "think" I see in real life ;-)

In terms of formula Ocean Dip was pretty decent, it slided on the nail and dried quickly but needed 3 coats. No big deal though, I can do 3 coats if they're not streaky and dry fast.


Overall :
I really like Ocean Dip but I'm puzzled by how it looks on me, I guess it's a good thing I also like greens.

Has this ever happened to you too? Or maybe you own this polish and then I'd be curious to know if it actually looks turquoise on you.
