Hello!!!

OPI Every Month is Oktoberfest. Indoors, artificial light, no flash.

This is Every Month is Oktoberfest from OPI's fall collection.

This is a wonderful shimmer polish. The base is a deep blue, but it's so packed with red shimmer that the overall color is burgundy.

Swatches today are a base coat of Seche Clear, two coats of Every Month is Oktoberfest, and one coat of NYC In a New York Minute. Formula is great!

So gorgeous! Deep and vampy with beautiful shimmer. It's elegant, in a dark way. I love this way more that I thought I would.

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!

Stash Swatch Initiative: Nicole by OPI Kim-Pletely in Love

Hello!

Nicole by OPI Kim-Pletely In Love. Indoors, artificial light, no flash.

Today's post is just a quickie to show you Nicole by OPI's Kim-Pletely In Love.

This is a soft and pretty pink loaded with iridescent shimmer that flashes green and blue. Swatches today are a base of Sinful Colors Nail Hardener, followed by four coats of Kim-Pletely In Love, and topped with one coat of Seche Vite. Formula was nice on this one, but it is very sheer.

I found my bottle on clearance at CVS a few weeks ago, happy hunting!
