Review, Product Pictures, and Swatches: OPI Go Goth Collection for Halloween 2010

Sometimes it feels like companies are too quick in coming out with their collections. I mean, we’re not even done with summer and fall collections are coming out already. Amidst all of these collections, OPI decided to release its Halloween collection in the beginning of September. Now, I’m not gonna snore because Halloween happens to be my most favorite holiday. Just the thought of getting free candy and dressing up makes me want to piss in my pants. I think that candy is the best gift in the world. So, this year’s collection is called Go Goth and it comes with 4 OPI minis is ghoulish shades as well as a free lace cuff bracelet. The entire set will retail for $12.50. All of the colors are minis which means that they are 1/8 Fl. oz. Now, I’ve heard many things about how the minis are heard to work with, but I think that those people are definitely crazy. I have small nails (as you can tell by the swatches) and the brush is perfect for it. I also love the drying time and they pigmentation of a OPIs and these are no different. They are the exact same as full size OPIs, but these are tinier. I personally think it is too cute that they’re so mini that you can fit them in your pocket. With these, I got chip free wear for 5 days until the tips started wearing off somewhat. The shades came out just like they were described, but let me describe them in my own words again.


-Unripened: A black shade with green glitter. In the swatches, I used 2 coats.
-Nevermore: A black shade with purple glitter. In the swatches, I used 2 coats.
-Sanguine: A dark red with black shimmer. In the swatches I also used 2 coats.
-Obscurity: A matte black shade. In the swatches, I used 2 coats.

So, I don’t have to complain about any of the shades. They were excellent quality and they work really nicely with nails of any size (I used on my mom and she has huge nails). So, here are the swatches and more product pictures. Thanks for reading!








Enjoy!

Press Release: OPI Go Goth Collection for Halloween 2010

Doesn’t the thought of Halloween just wanna make you pee in your pants? I know that I get overexcited just thinking about Halloween. I still go with my younger cousins so I do get some candy, but when companies come out with nail polishes to go with this amazing holiday, I get triple excited. So, for this year’s Halloween, OPI is coming out with a mini polish collection. They will all be the mini sizes of the normal OPIs in festive colors. This year’s collection is called Go Goth. It features 4 ghoulish shades to excite everyone’s inner child. Now, I’ll try my best to review them, but I cannot guarantee anything. I have heard that the OPI minis are a bit harder to work with, but I guess I’ll have to see for myself. Here are the shade descriptions:

-Obscurity: a matte black
-Sanguine: deep, dark blood red-maroon
-Unripened: a dark glittering green
-Nevermore: blackened purple

Availability: October 2010

OPI Swiss Colelction for Fall 2010 Part 2: Review and Swatches

Hey girls! This second part will be swatches and review. The OPI Swiss Collection for Fall 2010 will release in August. It will be available at JCPenny, Ulta, and other beauty supply stores and e-tailers.

Here are the shade descriptions:

-I’m Suzi and I’m A Chocoholic: This is a crème shade that’s a deep red shade. As all reds and dark shades, it will stain your nails. In the swatch, I used 2 coats.
-From A to Z-urich: This is also a crème shade that’s a really dark pink berry shade. This one also stains the cuticles and nail, but it will wear off. In the swatch, I used 2 coats.
-Color So Hot It Berns: This is a crème shade that’s a true cool red. It looks orange based on the bottle, but comes off a blood red. This also stains the cuticles and nails. In the swatch, I used 2 coats, but my nail line still showed so for extra assurance, you might want to use 3 coats.
-Just A little Rosti At This: This shade is a crème just like From A to Z-urich, but more purple berry-ish. It also stained my cuticles, but not as badly as the others did. In the swatch I used 2 coats.
-William Tell Me About OPI: This is a crème shade which is a deep eggplant purple. It reminded me of OPI Lincoln Park After Dark a little bit. This surprisingly sort of didn’t stain my nails and cuticles, if came off after some rubbing with nail polish remover. In the swatch I used 2 coats.
-Ski Teal We Drop: This is also a crème shade which is a blue based dark teal shade. It did stain my cuticles, but the staining wasn’t much of a bother. In the swatch I used 2 coats.
-Yodel Me On My Cell: This is a frost shade which is dark mermaid blue with blue micro glitter. In the swatch I used 4 coats because with 3 my nail line was still showing.
-The Color To Watch: This is a frost shade which is a light lilac purple blue reflective micro glitter. In the swatch I used 3 coats.
-Cuckoo For This Color: This is a frosty emerald shade with green micro glitter. In the swatch I used 2 coats.
-Diva of Geneva: This is also a frosty dark raspberry-ish purple shade. It has orange duo chrome micro glitter to it. In the swatch I used 2 coats.
-Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous: I think this has to be one of two of my favorite shade because it’s just so ME. It’s a glitter shade that’s dark grey/silver with silver glitters. In the swatch I used 4 coats because it’s sheer.
-Glitzerland: I think that if you had to purchase a shade, this is the one. It’s sheer, but so pretty. It’s a beige champagne-y glitter shade with silver glitters. I used 3 coats, but there will be 4-5 coats necessary since your nail line shows with 3 coats.
















So as all of you can see, I basically love these shades. If you use a base, I can guarantee you that your nails will not get stained. The crème shades consistency is a slight thicker than the other shades’ consistencies, but it still works wonders. The other shades are thinner in consistency, but they dry super fast. Again, with their classic pro-wide brush, application is super easy. Their formula is 3-free so you’re not harming your nails. I hope all of you enjoyed and once again this collection is set to release in August 2010!

Review: NEW OPI Flutter Collection for Summer 2010

Hey girls! Today I’ll finally be reviewing the OPI Flutter collection for summer 2010.It will release 4 new OPI shades and these will be limited edition as always. There is a blue shades, a mid-tone pink, a fuchsia shade and an orange shade. They come in different finishes which is the good thing because I’m getting bored of cream finishes. Keep reading to see my review!

Pro(s):
-Very opaque and you don’t need too many coats.
-Fast drying and the formula is not too thin and runny or too thick and goopy.
-Exclusive pro-wide brush which helps to spread the nail polish

Con(s):
-None found during the testing of this product!

Overall review: I love OPI nail polishes. Since my Shrek review, I’ve purchased several other shades and I love them all so far. I highly suggest getting all the polishes in this collection because they are just awesome. They glide on my bumpy nails with ease like butter. Thanks to Magdalena for requesting this review and I hope all of you enjoy it!

Rating: 10/10

Is it recommended by Vicky? : Yes, I personally suggest getting the entire collection!

Introducing the NEW OPI Flutter Collection for Summer 2010 Part 2: Swatches

Hey girls!Here are the swatches and shade descriptions for each shade that will be releasing this month in the OPI Flutter Collection for summer 2010.

Shade descriptions:

-Flit A Bit: This shad is an opaque orange with a crème finish. It’s pretty even in 2 coats.
-Wing It! : This is a very glittery shade. It’s a dark fuchsia pink with tons of glitter. It has blue/purple reflex in it which causes the shade to look different from different angles. This might need 3 coats although I used 2 coats for the swatches. It’s a bit on the transparent side.
-Flower-To-Flower: This is a mid-tone pink with an almost crème finish, but it has fine silver shimmers. It’s even in 2 coats and I actually painted all my nails this shade after receiving press samples.
-Catch Me In Your Net: This shade is a lot like Wing It! because it’s really on the transparent side. In the swatch I have 2 coats on but you might need 3-4. The shade itself is a dark blue with turquoise green reflex in it so this shade also looks different from different angles. It also has a lot of glitter in it which I said was the reflex.

My review is coming up next!
