OPI Goes Dutch!

I must say I'm pretty excited about this collection and not just because I'm Dutch! There are some very nice colors in this collection and OPI truly outdid themselves with the word puns :-) The nail polished will be in stores in February 2012 and will, of course, come to the Netherlands as well. I truly can't wait!

Rainbow Toe Nails

I'm anything but traditional when it comes to the nail polish I use for my toe nails. I will on very rare occassion go for the traditional dark red or brown colors, but I prefer to have colorful toe nails no matter the season. Don't ask me why, the only excuse I can give you is that I'm a little weird :-) For those looking for inspiration, here are my Rainbow toe nails (they're a little short, sorry).

How to get this look?

The colors that I used are these;

From left to right in this picture (and on my left foot, right foot is mirrored);
- Herôme W.I.C. Moroccan Collection (Spring 2011), no 152, Essaouirab
- Catrice Ultimate Nail Lacquer, no 450, Sand Francisco
- Herôme W.I.C. Moroccan Collection (Spring 2011), no 150, Zagora
- Herôme W.I.C., no 76, Rome
- Herôme W.I.C. Moroccan Collection (Spring 2011), no 149, Rabat
I did two layers of each, even though most colors didn't need for good coverage, but to get really bright colors, it's better to use two layers.

I'll review these colors at a later moment as I prefer to use the nail polish on my hands for that.

'til next time!

Nicki Minaj Collection By OPI

OPI teamed up with icon Nicki Minaj and will release 6 new colors in 2012. There are a few very interesting looking nail polishes in this collection in my opinion. Click the read more button for a large picture of all colors.

Crack The Cherry

I had a job interview this week so I didn't have the time to change my manicure more than just one time. After Captain Sparrow's Boat, I was in the mood for something colorful and ended up going for Essence Multi Dimension, no. 63, 'Purple Cherry', with a crackle top coat by Herôme, no. 165, 'Gold Geneva'. I've included more pictures than before in this post, I hope this gives you a better impression of what the colors are like.

Aye, Captain!

As it's getting colder outside, I feel like going for some of the darker colors I have in my collection so today I'll be reviewing Catrice's Ultimate Nail Lacquer, no. 620, 'Captain Sparrow's Boat'. As the name kind of implies already, this color is definitely inspired by Chanel's Black Pearl from this year's Spring collection. I don't have the Chanel nail polish, but I'm including a picture below so you can see the similarities :)

  

Crackled Love

After buying a few cracked nail polished earlier this week, I had to use them right away! I haven't had much time yet, so I've only used one but what a lovely color it is! I combined the Herôme 'Light Blue Malibu' (no. 163) crackle polish with Essence Multi Dimension, no. 57 'Love of Pink'.

Cracked

Very quick and tiny post; I recently got these new crack nail polishes. No reviews yet for now, but they will follow soon, at least one this weekend already :)

Happy Friday eve!
