OPI "Nice Set Of Pipes"

Hey everyone and happy Sunday!  Last week slipped by without me posting - but I'm back and ready to go today!  So without further ado today's nail polish is OPI's "Nice Set Of Pipes" from their Scottish Collection.  Here's how this beauty looks in the bottle:

"Nice Set Of Pipes" is a really pretty dark purple creme.  The formula of this polish was slightly thick but I was able to apply it pretty well to my nails.  After two coats, "Nice Set Of Pipes" was fully opaque and streak free.  Here's how this purple looks like up close:

Overall I am pretty pleased with OPI's "Nice Set Of Pipes."  I love the color of this polish - it is perfect for Autumn and Winter.  It also looks good with all my work clothes.  I cannot wait to wear this nail polish a lot more often!

Sinful Colors "Why Not?"

Hey everyone and happy Sunday!  I hope everyone in the United States is enjoying the long holiday weekend!  Today's nail polish is Sinful Colors "Why Not?"  This polish is a pretty Summertime color and I figured with Summer wrapping up it was the perfect time to pull it out.  Here's how it looks in the bottle:

"Why Not?" is a cerulean creme nail polish that I picked up at my local Wal-Mart.  The formula of this polish is really nice and it applied easily to my nails.  After two coats "Why Not?" was entirely opaque and had no visible streak marks.  Here's how this pretty looks up close:

Overall I like Sinful Colors "Why Not?"  This blue color is one of my favorites and with its great formula and affordable price you can't go wrong with this polish in your collection!

Sally Hansen Insta Dri "Pina Colada"

Hello everyone and happy Monday!  Today's nail polish is Sally Hansen Insta Dri's "Pina Colada" which was part of a collaboration with Jelly Belly Jelly Beans.  Here's how this nail polish looks in the bottle:

"Pina Colada" is a bright yellow creme.  The formula of this polish was quite thick and goopy.  The polish did not apply well to my nail - the bottle has a very wide brush and I have narrow nails so the polish glopped on instead of going on in nice even layers.  After two coats "Pina Colada" was mostly opaque but with several visible streak marks.  Typically I would have applied a third coat to try and even out the streaks but the thick layers prevented that.  Here's how "Pina Colada" looked up close:

Overall I am disappointed with Sally Hansen Insta Dri's "Pina Colada."  The color is so pretty but everything else about this polish was a struggle for me.  I am always on the look out for yellow polishes but this particular yellow won't be staying in my collection.

Sephora by OPI "Wild About Shimmer"

Hey guys and happy Sunday!  Today's nail polish is Sephora by OPI's "Wild About Shimmer" which was part of limited edition set from QVC.  Sephora by OPI is a retired brand of polish that used to be carried at US Sephora stores.  Here is how "Wild About Shimmer" looks in the bottle:

"Wild About Shimmer" is unsurprisingly a glitter - a gold and iridescent glitter in a clear base.  The glitter is absolutely gorgeous and is perfect for Summer.  The formula of this nail polish is wonderful and applied evenly to my nails.

Since "Wild About Shimmer" has a clear base I wanted to try it over an opaque polish - so I selected Ellen Tracy's "Fire Engine Red."  This combination turned out amazing and looked like actual fire, especially when the gold glitter shone in the light.  Look how pretty my nails were:

To show you how gorgeous this glitter is here is how "Wild About Shimmer" looks up close:

If you want to know mote about Ellen Tracy's "Fire Engine Red" check out my previous post from earlier this year!

Overall I am in love with Sephora by OPI's "Wild About Shimmer" and I cannot wait to wear this nail polish again and again!  It's shame this brand has been retired because I would love to get my hands on other glitters from this brand.
