OPI Espresso Your Style - perfect chocolate brown!

Wow - if you're into brown polish then this is a 'must have'! Admittedly I bought it for it's catchy name, but I am not disappointed. Espresso Your Style is from the Deliciously Dark collection around 2006 I think. This is a gorgeous chocolate brown with tons of gold micro shimmer.

This shows two coats.

Nina Ricci #24 with Stamping

I'd almost completely forgotten about my little stash of Nini Ricci polishes - have a look here and here for some of the other amazing colours.

This polish is difficult to describe - I guess I'd have to call it a dusty rose creme. It is effortless to apply and the colour payoff is fabulous. This shows two coats.

Base colour: Nina Ricci #24

Essie Fiesta with Cheeky Stamping

It's been ages since my last post - my busy life got in the way of manicures! Anyway with the holidays here now I've finally got a bit of spare time to post some pictures.

Today I'm wearing Essie Fiesta which is a hot pink - almost neon pink actually. Perfect for our summer days! This is an easy to apply formula and like most Essie polishes dries quickly with heaps of shine.

I'm really impressed with this Cheeky stamp. The image is crystal clear and transferred really well!

Layla Hologram Effect - Purple Illusion WOWZERS!

Yeah baby! This is easily one of the most holographic polishes in my collection. This is seriously a gorgeous colour. It's a beautiful muted dusty fuschia in the shade but in the sun its breathtaking! The formula is typical of a holographic polish, quick drying and easy to apply. This is over one coat of Nfu Oh's Aqua Base.

Behold!

In the shade



Layla Hologram Effect - Coffee Love WOW!!

It's my pleasure to share this gorgeous polish with you today. Layla Hologram Effect - Coffee Love. This is not only an amazing linear holographic polish but I love that it's actually a very wearable colour too! In the shade it's a subtle warm taupe and then in the sun WHAM!

The formula is typical of Layla - easy to apply and dries quickly. I applied this over one coat of Nfu Oh Aqua Base and didn't have any hassles.

So here are the pics . . .

OPI Call Me Gwen-Ever with Cheeky stamping

I just love a dusty orange! OPI's Call Me Gwen-Ever is a vibrant coral tangerine pretty similar to CG's Life Preserver. I couldn't go past this polish - especially since I have a good friend called Gwynne! This shows three coats.

Enchanted Polish - Awesomeness!

Today I'd like to share the divine Awesomeness from Enchanted Polish - and Awesome it is! It's purple and it's holographic - so I dare say it certainly meets that criteria. This is my first Enchanted Polish and it's a pleasure to use. The formula is effortless and dries pretty quickly - although not as fast as typical of many holographic polishes.

Here are the swatches . . . .
