So I know it’s 2022, but here are the swatches of the OPI Holiday collection that I purchased. You can still purchase these, and spoiler alert, I love them! I got all the holos and the blue cream. So we’ll lead with my favorite, Mylar Dreams- the pink holo. It really is a one coater,… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- the OPI Holiday Collection
This is a classic blue polish, said to be close to Sally Hansen’s Pacific Blue. I’ll have to compare them sometime! It’s a great blue- I got this at Ulta ages ago, for like $1.97 or something crazy like that. It’s a beautiful blue cream with a beautiful formula. And I am a HUGE Sherlock… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- Nails Inc. Baker Street
This is a cool polish from Painted Polish– it’s microglitter! Cool, right? It was full coverage in three coats (and a bit of a pita to remove, little microglitters everywhere, lol) But of course I adore the color. The formula was easy to work with. Then I wore Pahlish Calcifer. A great polish! I love… Read More Try More Thursday- Painted Polish Snowberry Slush, Pahlish Calcifer, Ever After MPT 7
When I first tried China Glaze’s Twinkle Twinkle Little Starfish, it was SUPER sheer- so I put on my JReine VNL first, then did 3 coats of Twinkle Twinkle Little Starfish. Oh, yes, this was when my dumb middle nail broke! Ugh. Oh well. It’s pretty, and fine, and it was a total PITA on… Read More Mainstream Mani Monday- China Glaze Twinkle Twinkle Little Starfish and Color Club Foil Me Once
So I’ve had this Polish Me Silly polish for awhile, and finally tried it- it’s so awesome! These pictures are not at all doctored or anything (I wouldn’t do that anyways, but I don’t even know how, lol). I’m linking their Etsy shop, as you get free shipping with a $35 purchase. Here’s Glow Worm!… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Polish Me Silly Glow Worm, Atomic Silicate, Wildflower Sleigh Queen, Sleigh
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
ILNP put out the first black to red multichrome polish, and I hopped on it and then I got this polish, which is the holo version. This had a more opaque formula than the other black to red multichrome I’d tried (from Octopus Party Nail Lacquer). I love the holo running through it, and see… Read More Try More Tuesday- ILNP Eclipse (H), Atomic Polish Californium, Frenzy ?
I am a huge Dave Matthew’s Band fan. Huge. So I needed this polish- the name is from the lyrics to their song Tripping Billies. My Yellow Flame, She Dances. So it looks like flames! And the gold flakies are so pretty in this polish. It had a great formula, even as packed with flakies… Read More Try Them Tuesday- Heather’s Hues My Yellow Flame, She Dances, Moon Shine Mani Dark Iron Destiny 2.0, 1850 Would You Be My New Best Friends
CIrque has such pretty colors, and Wild Earth is so pretty, such a delicate green with a beautiful sparkle. See that beautiful sparkle throughout it? Soooo pretty!! I did three thin coats, and it had a great formula. There was no streakiness in the shimmer. The closeup just really shows the delicateness of this beautiful… Read More Try More Thursday- Cirque Wild Earth, POP Daylight Comes and I Wanna Go Home, Painted Polish Mystery Crelly 6
