I believe in manicures, OPI! This was from the Holiday 2016 Breakfast at Tiffany’s collection. In the spirit of full disclosure, I have not seen that movie, lol. It’s a beautiful light blue with a beautiful formula. This is two coats of a not scary cream! This is a gorgeous color, too, the perfect light… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI I Believe in Manicures and China Glaze Dance Baby

Then I topped it with… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Jade is the New Black and OPI Lights of Emerald City and China Glaze Tip Your Hat and OPI Snowglobe Trotter
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! But look at the fun pops of colored glitter in the silvery blue glitter. It was (of course) super hard to remove, but oh well, that’s why… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Liquid Crystal and China Glaze Valet the Sleigh

So let’s dive in to… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- My Chihuahua Bites and My Chihuahua Doesn’t Bite Anymore- a comparison!
This is such a pretty full coverage glitter! It was from China Glaze’s Trolls World Tour collection from 2020. I never saw the movie, the kids are too old for those kinds of movies now (sniff, sniff, lol). It’s almost a coral leaning pink- but definitely pink! Removal was a bit tough, but that’s what… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Pink in Poppy
Do you need a great bright polish? Try China Glaze Bite Me! This was from their 2016 Lite Bright collection, and boy is it bright! I love it! It had a good formula- it has a slight shimmer so that made the formula easier. I did three thin coats just for opacity, and because I’m… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Bite Me

This is a polish from the Fall/Winter 2017 Iceland collection from OPI. I love the color but the formula was awful. It was patchy and meh. This is three coats. See the patchiness here? Ugh. It’s such a pretty color, but I can find a dupe with a much better formula. If I were a… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- OPI Skating on Thin Iceland
