OPI - Today I Accomplished Zero (Coca Cola Collection summer 2014)

Opi's Today I Accomplished Zero is inspired by.....Coca Cola Zero....and I really do hate the taste of that one. It's like drinking liquid plastic or something >brrrrr< and the after taste is the worst >shivers<

And the polish? I wasn't too sure looking at the bottle, it looked murky and unattractive to my eye.
The first coat on the nail didn't change that perspective one little bit: it was streaky and transparent. But coat number two did the trick: there was depth and there was sparkle and glowing ambers in the dark. I love it and it is very wearable!

I won't start drinking Coke Zero, but I do love this colour and I am definitely going to wear this one very often this fall!
Naturally it reminds us of the Mariah Carey one Stay The Night (one of the first Liquid Sand polishes), but I think the reddish-pink glitter is a bit more red in TIAZ and there is more size variation in those glitters as well

OPI - Oy Another Polish Joke! (Euro Centrale Collection, Spring 2013)

Polish on holiday number 8:

This baby was waiting in my drawer for ever, so that was not fair to Oy-Just Another Polish Joke because she is just gorgeous! If my nails were not so stained I would love to wear this on it's own. But as it is I slapped it on Sorry I'm Fizzy Today and loved the result really.
It made the pink more of a soft orange and gave it the most beautiful golden twinkle.

This is just one layer over SIFT and it issn't patchy at all, the golden twinkles spread out very evenly.
Very festive: it's like sunshine on your nails :-)

Sometimes you're just in the mood for pink!
Here we have OPI Sorry I'm Fizzy Today, a warm (to coral) leaning pink creme.
It's a very flattering colour for my skin tone, if you have more cold undertones this might not be the pink for you.

This was three layers: the first was a bit streaky, the second was a bit better and the third evened everything out. It dried very fast and thin (three layers didn't make my nails look like there was gel on them).
There was very little wear to this as well: so all in all not too bad for this luscious pink!

Polish on holiday nr 2:

I liked OPI You're So Vain-illa so much: it needed it's own post!
And here it is: nice and fresh and crisp and no colour blocking in sight ;-) .
It is very easy to work with and it covers in two very easy coats: who would have thought for such a light and airy colour?

OPI Coca Cola trio: Coca Cola Red, Sorry I'm Fizzy Today and You're So Vain-illa (Coca Cola Collection summer 2014)

Polish on holiday number 1:

It is three polishes for the price of one >YEAH!<
I tried some colour blocking with the Coca Cola Collection and I love how these colours look together! The execution was a bit troublesome to say the least... The pink dried to fast and the beige wasn't dry enough and the OPI quick dry top coat was bubbling like C R A Z Y!
Next time I try something like this I need to be more patient and let the base dry fully.

OPI You're so Vain-illa was a surprise hit for me: I really like the colour a lot. It is a warm, soft beige that is very wearable for my skintone!
