Nicole by OPI Mattes

Today, I have for you two Nicole by OPI Mattes. I picked these up at Marshall's about three weeks ago. They came in a duo pack. You can check out the original post here.

 This is 'Respect the world - Matte' This is a muted turquoise. I used two coats with Nail Life as my base.












 I wanted a little more to this look so I tipped them with WnW Fast Dry's 'Silvivor' I really like the Matte and Foil finishes together.




 Here we have 'No Limits - Matte' This is a deep navy. This is what I think of when I look at a suede finish, but it definitely is matte.  I used two coats and Nail Life as my base.







 I used 'Silvivor' again as my french accents.

 I ran out of acetone during the last silver french : /. I tried removal with non-acetone remover that I had around, but it didn't work that well lol.

I want to apologize for being so hit and miss with posts lately. I've been working wacky schedules due to  no one showing up at work, and when I finally do get home, I'm exhausted! lol. But thanks for reading!! I hope you have a great day!!

Polish Haul & an Awesome ULTA deal!

 Yesterday I had to go up to a bigger town than mine to pick up my Macbook from Best Buy.. and of course right down the street is Sephora/Ulta/Sally's :D

I had been hunting the new China Glaze Metallic Glaze Crackle collection. Ulta didn't have it so I figured no one else would, but Sally's did! Mwah!! So in love!!

Ulta has an AWESOME deal going on. Spend $17 on any OPI product and get a free fullsize polish from their Shimmer into Summer Collection!! I chose 'I'm an Aqua-holic'.

While at Ulta, I found they have a ton of clearance, I picked up three of the OPI Shrek Collection. I also picked up Nice Stems minis and Serena Williams Grand Slam England Edition in Grape..Set..Match!

We hit up Marshall's after Ulta and I found some sweet Mood polishes and Nicole by OPI Matte's!

Okay, enough chit chat.. on to the pics!

Left to Right: 'Platinum Pieces', 'Latticed Lilac', 'Cracked Medallion'
'Haute Metal', 'Tarnished Gold', and 'Oxidized Aqua'(My fave name :D)

A closer shot..
'Platinum Pieces' and 'Oxidized Aqua' have different labels. I wonder if they are changing them.



Originally $8.50, I got them for $4.99 each.

'Rumples Wiggin', 'Fiercely Fiona', and 'Funky Dunky'


I love this color!


'Play the Peonies', 'Come to Poppy', Be a Dahl-ia Won't you?', and 'I lily love you'

I love these mini's because I really didn't know if I liked any enough
to buy full sizes and this way I can wear them and then decide!


These don't have names

We have a light teal to light blue combo
A light lavender to dark purple combo
A light pink to dark pink combo
and finally a light blue to dark blue combo



I think these are so pretty! i can't wait to swatch them all! Thanks for reading and have a good day!
