Swatch and Review - OPI What Wizardry is This?


Hello! Today I'll be showing you OPI What Wizardry is This? from Oz The Great and Powerful Collection. What Wizardry is This? is what OPI calls a Liquid Sand. This is basically a textured polish that dries to a matte finish. What Wizardry is This? is a very pretty olive greenish brown with gold shimmer. The formula was great, smooth and easy to apply. The polish is thin and flows from the brush, without clumps or streaks.  
I really like What Wizardry is This? I think it's so fun and trendy, while also being a sophisticated neutral at the same time.



What I used:

Base Coat: 1 coat of Pro FX Epoxy Bond Base Coat
Polish: 3 coats of OPI What Wizardry is This?, 2 coats is enough for full opacity, but I accidentally dented one of my nails when the polish was still drying, so I had to add a third coat
Top Coat: NONE!

Oreo's back! He likes to sleep like this, I'm not sure why!


Enjoy you Wednesday! Remember, smile!

Swatch and Review - OPI Jinx & OPI Tiffany Case


Hello! Today I'll be showing two polishes from OPI's new Liquid Sand summer collection, Jinx and Tiffany Case. The Liquid Sand polishes are textured polishes that dry matte and clumpy, and they feel sandy and rough. Jinx is a lovely, shimmering coral red. Tiffany Case is a medium sky blue, with blue hexagon glitters a similar, if not identical colour to the polish. Both polishes applied very smoothly, better than I expected, not one bit chunky or gritty. Removal was also easier than I expected, a bit longer than a cream polish but much simpler than a glitter polish, no foil method needed! On with the photos!





What I used: 

Base Coat: 1 coat of Pro FX Epoxy Bond Base Coat
Polish: 2 coats of OPI Jinx and 2 coats of OPI Tiffany Case (accent nail)
Top Coat: None, it's a Liquid Sand!

I will post more swatches of the remaining polishes in this collection soon, they're all so pretty! Enjoy!
