PREVIEW: OPI San Francisco Fall/Winter 2013 Collection Urban-Inspired Nails!

NOTD: Revlon Heavenly over Black OPI Black Onyx Hello lovelies! I apologize for the inconsistency of my posts lately. School has been hectic and problem sets have been taking up the majority of my time, poo. :( But not to fear, I still have ten fingers that want to be painted so I will continue to post as often as I can! Today I have a quick glitter combination to show you. This is Revlon’s Heavenly layered over a black creme. Heavenly is one of Revlon’s newer selections. This clear-base polish is jam-packed with iridescent square and hex glitter chunks. In the bottle, it appears to be milky - nothing too fantastic, but once layered over a dark creme, it’s eye-catching! Many thanks to my momma for picking it up for me. <3
I love how it turns blue, green, and orange at various angles. What do you think? Keep in touch with me: FACEBOOK | INSTAGRAM Until next time, toodles! 
REVIEW: OPI Bond Girls Collection (as previewed here) The more textured polishes I try, the more I am liking this new trend! Today I have the Bond Girls collection to show you, which features six brand new Liquid Sand polishes from OPI. These polishes will be available in stores at the beginning of May this year.
Oh my, this was the first polish I swatched in this set and I fell in love instantly! Solitaire is a white textured polish with silver sparkles. I highly recommend this polish for a bride! It’s just so elegant and clean and would match perfectly with a shining diamond ring. ;) This is just two thin coats and NO top coat.
Pussy Galore is a cotton candy pink textured polish with a beautiful fuchsia shimmer. Unfortunately I could not capture it with my camera, but believe me when I tell you that this polish looks much, much better in person. This is two coats.
Tiffany Case is a frosty blue with silver sparkles. The formula is fantastic and I only needed to use one coat for full coverage.
Vesper was a surprise for me! It appears a bit muddy in the bottle (almost brownish), and I was not expecting a deep aubergine color to come out. With one coat, you can see a jelly purple with black glitter, but after applying the second coat, you can no longer see them. I’m on the fence about this color because the outcome looks a bit like bumpy leather…
Honey Ryder is gold in a bottle! The textured finish brought back memories of when I was in the fourth grade learning about the California gold rush. We went on a field trip and got to pan for gold in the river. I found several pieces of pyrite which looked and felt exactly like Honey Ryder. Whoops, I’m getting off topic, but I’m just trying to tell you that I love this polish! ;)
Jinx is a stunning coral jelly with a mesmerizing golden shimmer. Oh, it is absolutely amazing in the sun - you’ve got to try it! This is two coats. I am going to go ahead and say that this will be the most popular shade from this collection! OPI Liquid Sand lacquers should always be worn without top coat (but that shouldn’t stop you from experimenting, hehe). Bond Girls by OPI nail lacquers feature OPI’s exclusive ProWide™ Brush for the ultimate in application. These six new shades will be available beginning May 2013 at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Chatters, JCP Salons, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $9.00 ($10.95 CAN) suggested retail for each nail lacquer.
