Stash Swatch Initiative: Nicole by OPI Love Your Life

Hello!

Since today is Valentine's Day, I thought this polish was appropriate. This is Nicole by OPI Love Your Life.

Love Your Life is a clear-based glitter topper. It has a bunch of pink, satin heart glitters swimming with some small iridescent glitter. For swatches today, I've used one coat of Love Your Life over Pure Ice Love, which is a light pink with hidden shimmer (that you'll be seeing soon).

The formula on this isn't the best. The base is a bit thin, so the hearts settle. Once you shake it up, they are suspended, but still hard to get out of the bottle. They get on the brush just fine, but they end up sliding off before your can get it out of the bottle. I had to work a little bit to trap them on the inside of the bottle neck, let excess base drain off (which would otherwise wash the hearts right off with it) and then pull them out. Not the most difficult thing to do, but a little extra care is required.

This added a nice delicate, extra touch to my already girly base polish. Perfect for today!

If you celebrate, enjoy! More soon!! ^_^
