Helllooo there

A much delayed NOTW post. This one is of OPI’s Matte polish in a green grape/apple type shade.

I have long wanted to try one of the OPI matter polishe but have never come across them in the store. I recently stumbled upon this shade and adored it.

So following this blog post will be pics of the nail polish but now for a mini review:

- quick drying as all matte polishes are
- a tad streaky if not use to the formula; takes a but of practice to get use to using it
- cannot use base or top coats with the polish or ANY matte polishes
- I found this shade lasted a good few days before chipping so I am impressed with OPI’s formula especially since matte polishes don’t have great lasting ability

Hope that helps anyone thinking of getting into matte polishes! The colour selection available in matte shades currently are not huge but slowly companies are expanding their colour range. I think that is a win!

Hey loves!

Quick nail post here: something simple. I found this colour in my stash of unopened OPI colours and felt it was very different to most of the colours I typically use. I ADORE the colour.

It is definitely more of a creme finish then a shiny or matte. One thing to note with this particular shade is that it applies very sheer on the first application. On my right hand I needed to apply 3 coats to achieve a very opaque finish. On my left hand, however, I needed to apply only 2 coats to achieve the same results. It all depends on how much polish you lay down during each coat.

As with all OPI polishes it was really easy to apply with no streaking and dried very quickly

Hey lovelies!

I will start doing short posts on what I am wearing on my nails. Nails Of The Week, that are not necessarily changed on a weekly basis

Here’s my current NOTW:

Zebra Print!!!!

Products used:

• Face Shop White nail polish
• BYS Black nail polish
• MAC Overlacquer Top Coat
• OPI Drip Dry

There are a couple of short reviews I’d like to do about Face Shop nail polishes and MAC’s Overlacquer. One is a rave review and the other I’m on the fence about. Take a guess which is which?

I hope you’ll enjoy this new post series and I love the idea of a quick post series, so that there will likely be post a little more frequently now.

Please feel free to let me know what you have on your nails too!!

Thanks for checking in and blog-you all soon!
