OPI Party In My Cabana

A great summer color! To my eyes it is very similar to OPI Chapel Of Love, but more on the cream side. Chapel of Love is little bit more shimmering than it. It is a solid bright pink from the South Beach collection Summer/Spring 2009. I did only one coat with no top-coat in the picture above, and it was taken the day after just to show you how great the formula is! Gorgeous color!

Essie-Matte About You

Nowadays, apartment-hunting can literally be a profession. Maybe it already is? It took up most of my free time the last few days, and I still couldn't find an place to live!! But I still manage to do something fun on the side.:)

                                      

OPI France-Parlez Vous OPI? + essie Matte About You finish

I finally received my essie topcoat last Sunday, couldn't wait to put it on! Love this dark creamy lilac on its own, with the matte finish? It's magical!

I waited, waited, and they are here!!

When I heard Trans Design is liquidating its OPI inventory, I didn't have any choice but had to order some!! The shipping cost is always expensive with them, but I could track my package and I always received everything in great conditions. I would say a piece of mind is totally worth the money!  

Left-to-right: Don't Melbourne the Toast; Fair Dinkum Pinkum; Chapel of Love; Chocolate Moose; Bronzed to Perfection.

OPI Australia-Fair Dinkum Pinkum
My picture does no justice to this beautiful color! It is creamy pink with glitter. There are streaks with one coat because of the texture, as you can see in my picture.:) It looks great with two coats if apply right. The brush is the wide pro brush, so it may take a few practices to get used to. One more point, it works like a charm as a tip coat for a summer french manicure.

OPI Australia-Don't Melbourne the Toast
It is sort of a coral pink color with shimmer. I hope that helps. Not a easy color to describe, not easy to find a replacement either. That's what caught my eyes at a first glance. I guess I love these colors have a bit uniqueness in them.:) Under daylight, it is more on the coral side. In this picture, it is dark outside and it is more pink somehow.

Chapel of Love
I'm really happy with my purchase this time. All the colors turn out to e exactly what I wanted. I always wear neutral colors at work, but I would definitely wear this one. It is light pink color. Shimmering, not solid or creamy as in the picture. Love it!

Chocolate Moose
My hands are just so dry. :( It looks exactly like light chocolate milk!! Yummy!

It is a nude chocolate cream color in my eyes:). If I put on three coats like in the picture, it turned out to be like a pink brown color. The formula is just awesome, and the color is so creamy. I still need sometime to get a hang of the right amount though. Mine turned out to be too thick, and it actually chipped the next day.:) It probably because I had too many coats on, the dry time was insanely long. I like this color for summer, especially if I got a nice tan on!

OPI Baguette Me Not

I got this nail polish with other three different colors as a set on my birthday last year. Baguette Me Not is part of OPI France Collection. Click to see Scrangie swatch, it's insanely gorgeous! This is my favorite out of the whole set. I was never a big fan of anything orange until I got this polish. It has a creamy pinkish orange color. The color is so unique, and yet it gives me a pop without being too conspicuous. It is a color I can wear all year-round, especially in winter time, it brightens up my totally dark wardrobe.

The picture was taken in day light after 2 coats with a base and top coat. For base and top coat, I used Sally Hansen Complete Care 4-in-1 Treatment.
