Okay Grandma, you go girl! This is from OPI’s Fall 2018 Peru collection. It’s a purple with a crelly formula- a little streaky but the end result is good. My little short nails! But isn’t this a pretty purple? Then I wore Essie Tart Deco. It was on sale for like $.75, so why not!… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Grandma Kissed a Gaucho, Essie Tart Deco

This is from OPI’s Texas collection from Spring 2011. Who knows when I actually picked this up! It’s their “sorbet” finish- aka jellies. I didn’t know that, so I was surprised at how sheer it was, lol. I did three coats of this, and I was super impressed at the formula. For such a sheer… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday OPI Houston We Have a Purple

This is a gorgeous color, too, the perfect light… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI I Believe in Manicures and China Glaze Dance Baby
After I had my middle nail break, I decided to swatch some older polishes I thought might look good on shorter nails- and then I went topper crazy! First up is OPI Jade is the New Black.

I just love China Glaze polishes! Here is Liquid Crystal! This was from their 2012 Prismatic Chroma Glitters collection. So – old, lol. It’s a total glitter bomb!

OPI’s My Chihuahua Bites is an iconic OPI polish. I can’t find when it exactly came out, but it’s been around for a long time! Then, in 2020, OPI came out with a Mexico City collection, and they put out a polish called My Chihuahua Doesn’t Bite Anymore. So cute! So let’s dive in to… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- My Chihuahua Bites and My Chihuahua Doesn’t Bite Anymore- a comparison!

Removal was a bit tough, but that’s what… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Pink in Poppy
