OPI TEXAS COLLECTION SWATCHES AND REVIEW PART 2

OMG! I finally found my other half of the Texas Collection that i lost previously so here it is. Its all red, pink, purple and orange. All of them have jelly like finish and at the end of the day i felt like i was having little gummy bears on my nails! I've never worn any jelly like finish polishes all my life and i wasn't sure if i would like it. But now i think i do:-)
Neway, back to these colors, seriously ive got no idea how to describe the colors as i've photographed this long time ago. However, i've taken quite a number of pics so i really hope it will be easier for you girls to identify the difference:-)

OPI SERENA GLAM SHAM-FRANCE SNEAK PREVIEW

I was super excited when i saw this so i really had to put this up. Here's something we should look forward to in May 2011; A white Shatter!!
Cool isnt it?
Well thats not just it! Its seems there are various 'Shatters' coming out after this. Here's what i got from www.addictedtoallthingspretty.com
Tada..

How cool is that!! Cant wait for them to come out. Im eyeing for the turquoise Shatter. Somehow i feel that its a dupe of OPI's "Teal The Cows Come Home" only it crackles. 
So which will be your favorite if you have to choose??

OPI PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN PREVIEW



When I heard that OPI was doing collaboration with the next big movie; The pirates of the Caribbean, I was superly excited! I was imagining some really dark, gouey, black color polishes that will really really portray how sparrow’s teeth looks like, or the ship or anything at all from the movie. So imagine my ‘excitement’ when I saw these promo pics:


Seriously!? I mean really? Which part from this collection looks like the movie apart from the name? All the other movie collection (Burlesque, Alice in the wonderland, Shrek!) looks like the movie but this so doesn’t! I hope the silver shatter will make it more like the movie. Really hope so..

So what do you girls think? Excited bout the collection?

ORLY MATTE COUTURE COLLECTION SWATCHES

Good Morning girls..
Collection today is from Orly’s Matte Couture collection. I think it was released a year or two ago..
Here are the swatches.
BLUE SUEDE

PURPLE VELVET

MATTE VINYL

On the whole, color looks exactly the same as the pics. Application was easy and the formula was very forgiving for a matte polish. Drying time was great too:-)
Hope you girls enjoy this.. Tc..

OPI KATY PERRY COLLECTION AND SWATCHES


First of all I would like to apologize to all my reader for the lack of updates. I try my best to wake up early everyday to post something but that just somehow doesn’t happen anymore! My bed seems to have this magnetic pull that doesn’t allow me to wake up anymore. Been late to work few times this month itself!

Now back to the post, another apology to you readers because I cant review the second part of Texas Collection today coz I accidently deleted the swatches yday (again! Feel like punching myself) so instead I’m gonna show you girls my swatches on Katy Perry Collection (a little bit delayed I know). This is the first time polishes were sent to me for review so I’m super-ly excited:-) Of course im gonna say the truth no matter what! Didn’t get the black shatter though. Heard its sold out worldwide. Really??!! I Want!! Uhuhhuhuhu..

Ok here’s the colors I have:

Teenage Dream

I hear lots of partial favoritism towards this. I like it too. Only not as much though. I like the fact that its glitter and pink. Hardly saw any pink glitters around so this is cool!:-) It has this big chunky and small gold-silver dust on it. Very nice but pain in the arse to remove though. This was 2 coats.

Last Friday Night.

I usually love blue and green a lot and am always biased towards the color but seriously, I dislike this polish! For no particular reason actually. It might be because there’s so many beautiful glitter blue out there (OPI Simmer and Shimmer is one of them) or probably because it reminds me of those cheapo polishes we always find in “Pasar Malam” (Night Market). Neway, This was two coats. As for the color it has a faint blue base and blue-gold-silver glitters on it.

The One That Got Away


This color might look dull here but its absolutely gorgeous in real. I usually don’t like red but this somehow caught my attn. Like the whole glassy flake concept in this polish. See it in real to see how beautiful it is. I bet it looks way better under black shatter. Sigh.. wish I had it.

Not Like The Movies

With Flash
If you ask me, this is my favorite polish in this collection. What’s not to love about this polish? It gives such an intense duochrome reflection under sunlight that it just had to be my favorite. I couldn’t capture the duochrome effect properly but basically it has grayish base, with purple, and green reflected at different angling and lighting. Its just so so gorgeous! It reminds me a lot of Ingrid from Nubar only that’s darker and it’s a bit bluish. This was 2 coats.
All in all, the application was great, and drying time was good too. The glitters however gave me a hard time to remove em (as usual) but other than that, it was great. I like almost all the colors in this collection except Last Friday Night. Cant seem to like it even if I force myself and it being very sheer didn’t help to. Hopefully it looks great under black Shatter.
So neway, what’s your favorite in this collection?  If you used Black Shatter before how is it??

OPI TEXAS COLLECTION SWATCHES AND REVIEW PART 1




Good Morning Girls..
Today I have a part of colors from the OPI Texas Collection to show you girls. Well basically I wasn’t too enthusiast about the colors as I’ve seen them all but they are some that catches my eye and I’ll probably wear them again:-)

Austin-tatious Turquoise 

With Flash

Don't Mess With OPI

Its Totally Fort Worth It


I Vant To Be A Lone Star


Suzi Loves Cowboys

San-Tan Tonio


Application wise it was easy (as usual) and drying time was normal. Nothing new here with OPI; in terms of formula or colors. If I were to choose something that I like, I will go for San-Tan Tonio coz its one of those colors I’ll use on my ‘mild’ days, the two grays ; Its totally Fort Worth It and I Vant to be a Lone Star coz you don’t see much greys with OPI :-D The rest.. erm I don’t see anything unusual with them. Don’t Mess with OPI Looks exactly like Starboard from China Glaze (will do comparison soon). The rest.. humph.. Well hopefully there’s better luck with the next 6 colors..

So you girls, which is your favorite?
