Hi everyone!
I’m really sorry I sort of dropped off the planet for a while there, I had some life drama to sort out. But now I’m back on track, and today I’ve got 4 of the OPI Holland polishes for you!
Thanks a Windmillion. This is 3 coats, no top coat. It reminds me a lot of Mermaid’s Tears from the Pirates of the Caribbean collection, although Windmillion seems less dusty in comparison. Love this colour though, nice and soothing.
I layered two coats of Fresh Frog of Bel Air over Thanks a Windmillion next.
Like a lot of people, I’m not a huge fan of the Muppet glitters, they’re far too sparse, but layered over the right colour it turns out nicely.
I Don’t Give a Rotterdam! 3 coats.
I really like this colour actually, it’s almost a periwinkle blue, filled with micro flakes, in silver and I think gold as well. I was in a layering mood, so one coat of Wet ‘n’ Wild’s Tangled in My Web went on the top.
I’m planning on using Tangled in My Web over a pink for a watermelon kind of look soon.
I Have a Herring Problem. 3 coats here too.
This is a darker blue than Rotterdam, the word that comes to mind is actually ‘denim’. The dusty blue filled with micro flakes reminds me of denim material. Or I’m just crazy, whichever.
The flakes in I Have a Herring Problem have a higher concentrate of gold in them unlike the flakes in I Don’t Give a Rotterdam! And again with the layering, one coat of Gone Gonzo! over the top.
Gone Gonzo! compliments the dusty blue nicely.
Dutch ‘Ya Just Love OPI [and hate their names?]. 3 coats and Seche Vite top coat.
I’m a big fan of purple polish and this is no exception. A gorgeous deep purple with a hidden shimmer, what more could you want? The formula for this polish was a little tricky, I got quite a few bubbles, but they smoothed out with the Seche Vite.
Alright, so that’s it! Sorry about the huge post, I’m way behind in my reviews so I’m trying to catch up as quickly as possible.
See you on Wednesday for the first Lust List of 2012
