Manicure Monday: Nicole by OPI "Stolen Kisses"

Hello there ladies: 

Lately I've been in the kick of Fall although we are still a few days away to be officially in the Fall season. I typically don't like this kinds of colors as I find them to be very wearable and so common but I decided to give it a go. 


Stolen Kisses: is a rich pink-magenta creme. 


Overall this is not a color that appeals to me with a 'wow' factor, however in the bottle you can see ribbons of gold  which definitely don't get to see in the nail, I really would've wanted to see that, would've given the polish a different look. In the end I ended up coating my nails with Essie's Pure Pearlfection top coat to give the manicure a different dimension  

The only reason I bought this polish was solely for the name 'stolen kisses', is a funny cutsy name, any OPI product has a  cute, funny or remarkable name. 

The application was a tiny bit watery but nothing that would make me feel bad using it. The brush is good as always giving me a good control over the application. For photo above it took two coats of polish, which I kind of expected since I know Nicole by OPI makes good polishes. 

This is a limited edition polish but Nicole by OPI can be found at any mass retailers across Canada for $8.99 to 9.99. 

I hope you have liked this post and please come back for more ... Thanks for reading xoxo

Nicole by OPI Selena Gomez collection "Kissed at Midnight" Swatches and Review

Hi Lovelies,

Happy New Year, sorry everyone I've been very busy and I've paused my blogging posts. It's been 2 weeks since New Years and now I can actually make a quick post, I feel ashamed for not updating any sooner.
My love for nail polish is huge. It makes my hand super feminine and girly at the same time, is like changing outfit to my nails. Last week one of my nails broke so I'm quite sad because I can't actually do any proper picture. On my left hand the only big nails I have is just the middle and ring fingers, the other ones are short.
On a positive note however, I did a manicure inspired on New Years, using one of the new nail polish collection that Nicole by OPI did in collaboration with Selena Gomez. I bought two from the collection and one of them is a glitter top coat called Kissed at Midnight. This polish it has gold hex and silver finely milled glitter on a clear polish. The bottle it has it signature shape but I like how they now has the name of the celebrity stamped on the cap, that way you will certainly remember what the polish belong to which collection.
This collection was supposed to be released in January 2013, However I saw it at my local Walmart 1 week before the end of December 2012, and 2 weeks at Shoppers Drugmart. Shoppers Drugmart was retailing it at $8.99 and Walmart at $7.99. You can go out and buy it because is only released for a limited time.
For this manicure I did one coat of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in 370 blackout then I layered two coats of NOPI in Kissed at Midnight. I hope you like it, I just thought it was very festive and I hope that 2013 it started better than 2012 was.
