Swatch and Review - OPI You Callin' Me A Lyre? + OPI Which is Witch

Hello! It's Friday! I feel like this week has literally flown past. It seems like just yesterday it was Monday..... Today I'll be showing my favourite sheer+glitter combination, a more recent find of mine, OPI You Callin' Me A Lyre with OPI Which is Witch on top. I honestly love it so much, I was staring at my nails last night. With the white light from my nightlight, it just made this polish look like it was glowing. It really reminds me of pink fairy dust. I've actually worn this now for the fourth day. I just cannot bear to take it off. LOVE! OPI You Callin' Me A Lyre is a sheer, milky pink from last year's New York City Ballet Collection. I used two coats of this. Then, after the polish fully dried, I added one coat of OPI Which is Witch from the Oz The Great and Powerful Collection. It is a holographic glitter combination with micro, hexagonal, and tiny bar glitters suspended in a thick, clear base. The thicker base makes application of this polish even and effortless. Judging from the bottle, I expected this polish to be extremely dense and sparkly, but actually, it ended up being a very soft and dainty glitter that was both sparkly while being elegant. So pretty. 

What I used:

Base Coat: 1 coat of Pro FX Epoxy Bond Base Coat
Polish: Two coats of OPI You Callin' Me A Lyre with 1 coat of OPI Which is Witch
Top Coat: 1 coat of INM Out The Door Dry Fast Top Coat

I also wanted to show you a bottle shot of OPI Which is Witch. This picture really shows the holographic glitters in the polish. It truly is magnificent. Amazing!

Thank you so much for reading, hope you enjoy your day! Smile!

Swatch and Review - OPI Y'all Come Back Ya Hear?

Hi! Happy Tuesday! Today I'll be doing a swatch and review of Y'all Come Back Ya Hear? from the 2011 Texas Collection of OPI. Y'all Come Back Ya Hear? is a sheer medium orange, or as OPI calls them, a jelly polish. "Jellies" are sheer polishes that build up opacity nicely, though they will never be fully opaque no matter how many coats are used. In the following photos, I used 3 coats, and you can still see a visible nail line (VNL). YCBYH was sheer, almost clear on the first coat, was pretty nice on the second coat, and a perfect jelly on the third. I must applaud OPI for the smooth application though, some sheers, (most of them), can be incredibly streaky and patchy to the point of utter frustration, but the sheers I've tried from OPI have been perfect! Let's get on with the photos!

What I used: 

Base Coat:  1 coat of Pro FX Epoxy Bond Base Coat
Polish: 3 coats of OPI Y'all Come Back Ya Hear?
Top Coat: 1 coat of OPI RapiDry Top Coat

I enjoyed Y'all Come Back Ya Hear? a lot, it's perfect for spring and summer. For some reason, tis polish reminds me of orange popsicles, or carrot juice..... Ha! Enjoy!
