Sephora by OPI Charge It! Swatch (NOTD) & Review

2 coats:

How many coats did I use?

2

How was drying time?

Super quick!! :D Thumbs ups Sephora by OPI!! :D

Wearing time?

Pretty good! Pictures show 2 days wear. By the 3rd say still minimum wearing.

Would I repurchase?

I like this colour, but not love. It is a subtle colour, and I ahve only worn it once so I may love it in the future.

We will see!! For now, now, but I would love to try more Sephora by OPIs! :D

Have you tried Sephora by OPI nail polishes?

What did you think?

Sephora by OPI Nonfat Soy Half Caff Swatch & Review

How many coats did I use?

OMG.... 5-6 coats!!

How was the formula?

TOO thin & watery for my tastes. It is a sheer - EXTREMELY SHEER nail polish.

How was the drying time?

Too long for my liking. I am impatient hahah!

How is the shade?

I think this shade would be a perfect office shade. It looked a bit weird on me though,so I owuld say if you were a bit tanner, it would be the perfect nudey colour! :D

Where can I purchase this from?

The USA. I got this as a birthday gift from my friend who went to the States :D She also got me 2 more, so look out for them in future posts! :D

Would I repurchase this?

NOOOOOOOOOO! WAY too thin. Not worth it!!

What do you think of this shade?

Galaxy Nails: Deborah Lippmann Happy Birthday & OPI Yoga-ta Get this Blue! NOTD/Swatches!

Bottle pics:

Beginning of swatch pics! :)

With the OPI bottle:

With the DL bottle:

Do I love this combo?

Yes!! It looks like a rainbow spewed up on my fingers hahaha! Love love!!

How many coats did I use?

2 coats of OPI & 1.5 coats of DL

(by 1.5 I mean I used one coat, then had to go over several parts of the nail that had no glitter!!)

Would I wear this nail polish combo again in the future?

Yes! For sure! Unless removing it is a bigger pain than normal! Lol! But all glitters are a pain to remove unfortunately! :(

Do you like this combo? Would you wear it?

OPI Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous NOTD/Swatch

Sorry about the lighting of this swatch guys! But this nail polish is sooooo hard to capture on camera!

This nail polish is MIRROR LIKE I tell you! You can almost see yourself in it!!

This came out in OPI's Swiss Collection for 2010. They had so many gorgeous shades in that collection but I only got this one recently!! I have it on my toes right now too!!

What I don't like about it....

It took me 4 coats to get this opacity. You can get away with 3 thicker ones, or 2 thick coats, I guess but 4 coats is the most I have ever used for a nail polish (not layering)!!!! TOO much hard work! -_-

I will try 3 thicker coats for next time and report back later haha..

What I do like...

It is a nice charcaol - foily, metallicy shade that is perfect for fall and winter (although it is Spring here... it is still super cold!!)

Would you wear it?

NOTD: OPI ROAD HOUSE BLUES

Hi guys!

How is September treating you?

Current NOTD comes from OPI's latest collection - Touring America!

My fave of the collection!

Applies smoothly & opaque in 2 coats! Looks black on the nails though!! Which is kind of a bummer, but you can expect that I guess.
The name indicates it may be blue, it looks purple in the bottle && on the nail looks black lol!
If you look really closely, there is the TINIEST HINT OF BLUEY-PURPLE!

I still like it though!

It wears pretty well for a dark-coloured nail polish - lasted me for about 3 days before showing minor tip wear, on the fourth day, you could still get away with it! I'm tempted to take it off & reapply! But I have SOOOO many other nail polishes to try in my stash!!

What do you think of OPI RHB?

OPI Sparrow me the drama - Swatches & Review

OPI Sparrow me the drama

3 coats

VERDICT: Lovely pink shade!

This is what I wanted OPI Dim Sum Plum to look like (still need to post up NOTDs & swatch of that! :))

It was a bit sheer, 3 coats to full opacity.

Lovely to wear

I got complements on it from several people! :D

I am wearing this as a pedi too!! :D

One of my favourite pinks!! It is very toned down - not too barbie pink!

What do you think? Yay or nay?
