OPI - Teenage Dream

Hello everyone,

I'll have to start today with some terrible news (for me and all the non-American residents OPI lovers):
My number one OPI supplier TransDesign (TD) has stopped selling OPI!!!! Since today! I'm crushed!!! I mean they were the only ones selling OPI at a normal affordable price, shipping internationally  and the most serious of the nail polish vendors. Never had problems with the commands, all I've got was was what I've expected. I know that there have been problems between them and OPI, but... for me they were number one. Hope they will make peace with OPI and they will start re-selling this brand.
(Edit:  it seems that TD will cease activity, and the business is transferred to another site, called nailsupplies.us. We'll see...)

So Teenage Dream (from the Katy Perry Collection 2011) was amongst the polishes I've received with my last TD command.. (I'm gonna cry here..).
It's one of the most beautiful polishes OPI has ever done! It's simply amazing! At fist I wasn't so excited about this collection, especially after all the pre-command messy stuff all the nail polish vendors (oh, them again, and I'm not talking about TD here!) did and that they couldn't honor.
But it worthed waiting.
This beauty is a gorgeous mixture of  pink glass flecks and holographic glitter in a sheer pink base! Amazingness! I was so thrilled with it I wore it at the office! (ok, it's a little bit too festive to go to work wearing it, but... oh well ;), it's too beautiful and I hadn't have any meeting that day! :D) ).
Dries out super fast and what an effect!
Of course, it's sheer, so you'll need at least 2 coats. Here I'm wearing 3 coats of Teenage Dream and 1 coat of NailTek Quicken.





This was taken in the sun.

And, after work hours I thought why not try the new white crackle I've got with the same command ? I'm talking about Burst Crackle #8 Blizzard:


Don't they look like sugar coated candy?? ;)




See ya soon!

Big hugs for you!!! Thank you for reading my nonsense.

OPI - My Address Is Hollywood - Touring America Collection

Hello dearest readers,

Today I'll be showing you the 2nd of the 5 polishes Ruxi sent me from the Touring America Collection.

This one is a beautiful neat pink, with the same pink/gold shimmer in it like I Eat Mainely Lobster!

This shade is just great! It was a pleasure wearing it and watching it on my nails.

The application was OK, weirdly a bit better than for I Eat Mainely Lobster, but is however a bit sheer. It needs 3 coats for full opacity, but the great thing about it is that it dries very very quickly! So for the ones among you who don't like using a fast drying top coat, these 2 polishes are what you need! I was really impressed by the drying time and... by the wear, which is also excellent, one of the best from my stash.

Here I'm wearing 3 coats of My Address Is Hollywood, no top coat:









See you soon, nice people!

LA Girl - Love Notes


Hello everybody,

This is my 3rd L.A. Girl polish, and the second from the Nude Collection.
It'a cute baby pink, a cream with some shimmer inside it.
As her sister L.A. Girl - Antique, this one too has applied well, and took 2 coats for full opacity. Overall I'm very happy with this! I fully wore this at work and was ok.

Here are the pictures:

See you soon!
Thank you for watching!
