I blame Sally's. I mean, they just started carrying OPI, and then they just got this collection in January, and now they are already on clearance????? A girl can only be so strong. I was completely happy with just the silver and gold. (Which I reviewed and swatched here) Well, pretty much. So, I picked up the pink. and MAN is it purrrrty. And, by the way, I DON'T have another pink like it. It sits right between Shorts Story and Kiss Me I'm Brazilian.
And then, one week later, I got an email from Sally saying they were having another 50% off clearance event. Which is exactly why I didn't buy any more than I did earlier.... my spidey-nail-polish sense was telling me they were due. So I got my rear end in there and got the rest of the set. $2.25 is the lowest price I've ever paid for OPI, you better believe I'm not passing that up! I did purchase a "few" (pretend finger quotes there) other goodies.....those coming up soon :)
Here's a quick little "dotticure" I made with 3 of the collection. The tiny dots on my ring finger smeared a little when I added the matte topcoat...shouldv'e used SV first like I always do, DUH, lesson learned (and I did on the other fingers)

This is Hey Baby. I LOVE this, but I will say, the formula is a bit thinner than the Brazil collection. But it's so pretty I'll let it slide.

This is 4 In The Morning. I love how this collection has a mixture of finishes!!! 2 glosses, 2 satins, a glitter and a chrome. This is a shimmering black satin. I had my doubts about it but MAN is it gorgeous in the sun! I haven't tried it with topcoat yet but I hear its awesome as well. I'm not one to rock black nails all the time, but these satins dry SO fast I know I will be using this for art as much as I already use the gold.

Next is the 2nd gloss of the collection I Sing In Color. Wow this is soooo pretty as well! The formula for me was not as thin as the pink. It's right in that super dark brown/maroon/vamp range that I really love on super short nails in the fall. I think it looks a lot more brown in this pic, to me in real life it looked more maroon.

Last is the glitter In True Stefani Fashion. This is one I was going to readily pass on, I have several glitters a lot like it, just in different shapes. Holy Cow this is SO DENSE! This is one coat applied just like regular polish, no dabbing. Wow! Color me impressed!
