OPI - Sorry I'm Fizzy Today (Coca Cola Collection 2014)

Polish on holiday number 7:

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.

OPI - Sorry I'm Fizzy Today

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!

Essie - Breezy Beach (this is an old one!)

Polish on holiday number 6:

Very nude and very Essie, this Breezy Beach (lovely name).
It is a peach pink nude with a hot purple pink flash.
It very easy to wear, very work appropriate >duh<, to go short: you can not go wrong with this one.
Yet the shimmer gives it that something extra that made me want to own it!

Essie - Breezy Beach

This is an old formula, so it is very watery and thin. I needed four thin coats to build up to this result.
Perhaps this would look great as a top coat as well....I might just try that some time!

Nicole by OPI - Cinna-man of my Dreams (Gumdrops Collection 2013)

Polish on holiday number 5:

Some call it Liquid Sand, others Pixiedust, Texture polish or Gumdrops.
Nicole by OPI calls it Gumdrops, today I have Cinna-man of my Dreams on display.
I  L O V E this one, it is a complex colour with gold, rust, wine, orange and even some purple hidden in there somewhere. It makes my hands look very tanned (bonus) and it has some holo twinkle going on as well!

Nicole by OPI - Cinna-man of my Dreams

Very workable formula, two easy coats that dry very quickly (I love that about these kind of polishes).
I wore this one for days on end and it kept looking good!

Essie - Fair Game (Fair Game, Resort Collection 2011)

Polish on holiday number 4:

Ahhh, game watching in a resort in Africa >hmmmmm< sounds wonderful!

In the mini bottle I like Essie's Fair Game, it is a steel blue/grey with a hint of green, very edgy I thought ("I might even need it in a big bottle" I was contemplating..).
But then on the nail: *not so hot* I'm afraid.
It is way too frosty to my taste and the green is completely gone. It looks like a frosty steel grey with a hint of blue.

Essie - Fair Game

In the pics it looks better then in real life, I must admit. The formula was OK, a bit liquid but workable...this was two layers >I think< it could be three.
But the conclusion is: I don't need a big bottle of this one, YAH saving money here!!!

Sinful Colors - Emerald Envy (Crystal Crushes Collection, winter(?) 2013)

Polish on holiday number 3:

It has been a while since I posted a "liquid sand" polish: but some time ago I found this gem on Ebay.
Sinful Colors Emerald Envy is a blue-ish green with gold shimmer, that makes it festive and sunny.

Sinful Colors - Emerald Envy

Very easy this one: two coats and days and days of wear!
I think this green one is going to need some friends soon......

OPI - You're So Vain-illa (Coca Cola Collection, summer 2014)

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 - You're So Vain-illa

>Love it<

Don't you?

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 - Coca Cola Red, Sorry i'm Fizzy Today, You're So Vain-illa

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!
