This is a good basic red polish. I did two coats. It’s pretty neutral, which I like. If they get too orange they just don’t look good on me, lol. Truly a good formula. This isn’t a unique polish, but if you see it on sale I’d pick it up! I rarely wear red, but… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Red Heads Ahead
Koala Berry is such a classic! I photographed this with the price tag from Trade Secrets, to show how old this polish is, lol. This was a bit streaky, and I did three coats. I rarely wear red, and this formula was tricky enough that I probably won’t ever reach for it, but as I… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Koala Berry and China Glaze Come Rain or Shine

Of course, kids, hubby and job also kept me busy! I didn’t have a ton of mainstream polish faves-… Read More Mainstream Nail Polish Favorites for 2021!
OPI Black Dress Not Optional was from their 2016 Breakfast at Tiffany’s collection. I have never seen that movie, lol. It looks black but it is I think a super super deep gray with a shimmer. Or maybe a black with a silver shimmer. I don’t know. It is pretty. So pretty. I did two… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Black Dress Not Optional and OPI Embarca-dare Ya
Oh my gosh, this color!!! It’s everything! From their Summer 2021 Malibu collection. It’s just so so pretty! I love the shimmer- not quite a glass fleck, it’s a smaller shimmer than that. Three thin coats, a great formula- on the thin side, but not too thin. The shimmer leans a tad purpley pink- so… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Strawberry Waves Forever

It’s… Read More Try More Thursday- 10 more Halloween polishes!

I should have done a shiny top coat to see how pretty that was, but I was enamored of the matte finish! Then I wore OPI’s Orange You Fantastic, part of their Coca-Cola collection.… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- more Halloween Polish
