OPI Haul

Hey guys! So sorry I haven't posted in a while. But even though I haven't been posting, I've been buying lots of nail polish and have been super busy Konad-ing. I will try my best to post a review on my new stamping discs tomorrow, although I plan to do a review on all of my new China Glaze colours.

So today I'm posting on 3 OPI colours I purchased the other day. 2 are from the Touring America Collection, and the other 1 is an older colour, from the South Beach collection (2009 I believe). I got "I Eat Mainely Lobster", as well as "My Address is Hollywood", and I got "Suzi & the Lifeguard".

I bought I Eat Mainely Shrimp full price at Trade Secrets. The other 2 I got on sale! There is this local hair salon that sells OPI colours for $7.00 each, or 2 for $12.00. What a deal! I was shocked to see that the Touring America collection was in this bin, because it's so recent. I grabbed 2 other colours from the touring America collection from this bin once before.

Well, I have been wanting "My Address is Hollywood" forever. I didn't care much for the colour... I really wanted it because of the name of it! I have always wanted to go to Hollywood, so I had to have this colour because of the name of it. I saw it in this discount bin once, and had no money for it. When I went back with money, it was gone. So I have been waiting months to see it back in the discount bin. I finally saw it yesterday. I picked up Suzi & the Lifeguard as well, just because it's a better deal to buy 2.  Here is My Address is Hollywood:

This is after 3 coats. I probably could have gotten away with 2, but I was wearing black before I did these swatches and it was really difficult to get off fully. So I did a 3rd coat to cover that up. So you know how I said that I bought this just because of the name? Well I am more in love with this colour than ever! I didn't care for it much, but I absolutely love it on. It's not as bright pink in real life as it is in this picture. It's more pale. It is a light peachy pink with a ton of micro glitter. You can see the glitter in the bottle, but when you have it on your nails its more subtle. I really like this colour, and I would recommend it. It applies nicely, and is a wonderful colour on. Here is I eat Mainely Shrimp:

This is also 3 coats. In my opinion, this one needs 3 coats to cover nicely. It is a nice colour. It is a little more on the orange-red side compared to My Address is Hollywood. It also has the micro glitter. Again, easier to see in the bottle than on the nail. I love this colour in the bottle which is why I bought it, but I am sad to say I don't like the colour of it against my skin. I am hoping it will look nicer in the summer, because I really love it a a lot. I would recommend this colour, it is a really nice shade. But I also think it will work better as a summer shade. Here is Suzi & The Lifeguard:

This is 3 coats. It definitely needs 3. I bought this one because I needed a second polish and it happened to be sitting there, and I am so glad I did! It is a wonderful colour. It's a pearly pastel pink, with a tiny hit of peach. You can't see that here though. I think the micro glitter makes it look peachy in certain light. I thought this would go on really sheer, but it didn't really. It's a nice application. It doesn't go on really streaky, and you can almost get away with it in 2 coats. I would definitely recommend this colour. I didn't want to take it off after I swatched it! I think I will wear it tomorrow. I would have kept it on, but I already had something else in mind. I wanted to do a twist on a french manicure. I decided to take a picture to show you guys, because I loved the turnout. Here it is:

This is freehand tips using China Glaze Shocking Pink (Neon). Just a simple French, but I loved it so I had to share it with you. Also, I wanted to show off how long my nails are! This is the longest they have been in my life, and I am super proud! :)
