Here is another gorgeous polish from the OPI Burlesque collection. It’s called Show It And Glow It! The glitter is mostly purple but it contains some silver, blue and orange as well. This one is also extremely sparkly and it needs three coats for full coverage.

OPI: Shimmer & Shimmer

lyra — Wed, 08 Dec 2010 03:37:16 +0000

I was really excited about the OPI Burlesque Collection because of the glitter polishes in it. The first one I would like to show you is Shimmer & Shimmer. It’s a mixture of loads of lighter blue, silver, gold, pink and orange glitter. It’s super sparkly and it’s perfect for winter. Here are three coats.

Orly: Shine + OPI: Paris Couture For Sure + Konad

lyra — Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:24:29 +0000

Orly Shine is pure silver color with shimmery foil finish. Like Luxe this one is also super sparkly. It takes two coats to achieve full coverage.

Orly Shine:

*****

I wanted to go over the top with the shine so I added two layers of OPI Paris Couture For Sure Top Coat. At this point my nails were holographic and ridiculously sparkly. I couldn’t take my eyes of them.

*****

To finish it off I added the Konad design from image plate m50 with a black polish. I have to say I love this mani very much on my nails.

Have a nice time!

OPI: Tickle My France-Y + Konad

lyra — Sat, 30 Oct 2010 20:03:50 +0000

OPI Tickle My France-Y is creamy nude color with splash of brownish pink. Sometimes it looks more like gray pink nude – depending on the lighting. It’s subtle and chic. It takes two coats for full coverage.

OPI Tickle My France-Y:

I had to do some Konading on this one, but not something that visible from miles away, it’s rather soft and subtle. I choose Catrice Lost In Mud and Konad image plate s6 for stamping. It came out pretty nice

OPI: Here Today … Aragon Tomorrow Suede

lyra — Thu, 28 Oct 2010 13:52:23 +0000

OPI converted another of their polishes into matte suede finish. It was released for fall 2010. Here Today … Aragon Tomorrow Suede is rich emerald green matte with a load of silver and golden shimmer. The formula is great, it’s not too thick and it didn’t dry too fast. Takes two coats for full coverage.

OPI Here Today … Aragon Tomorrow Suede:

I know you’re probably thinking, how beautiful this matte finish is, but wait till you see it with a glossy top coat cover. It’s even more gorgeous! It sparkles a lot, even with no glitter in it. It’s nice in mate but it’s even more awesome with the top coat.

OPI: Boris & Natasha + Konad

lyra — Tue, 26 Oct 2010 21:27:26 +0000

Hi!

This polish is called Boris & Natasha and it’s from the Russian Collection (2007). Boris & Natasha is burgundy reddish purple creamy color – really nice vampy polish. The application went flawlessly and it took two coats for full coverage.

OPI Boris & Natasha:

I found the inspiration for this manicure in the autumn leafs. I stamped the leaf Konad design from the image plate m31 with Konad red, yellow and green polishes. I didn’t want to overload it, so I put it just on the ring finger and thumb.

Have a nice day!

OPI: What’s With The Catitude? + Barry M: Instant Nail Effect

lyra — Sun, 24 Oct 2010 17:14:53 +0000

Because I love the crackle polish effect so much, I just had do did it again. This time I used OPI What’s With The Catitude? for the base and added some holo effect with the Kleancolor Holo Blue polish.

And here is the picture with the crackle polish:

I really like it how the holo effect sparkles between cracks.

OPI: Russian Navy + Nfu Oh: 51

lyra — Thu, 21 Oct 2010 18:16:56 +0000

OPI Russian Navy is a dark navy blue color with blue and red shimmer. The red shimmer gives the polish a bit of purple reflection. It applies perfectly and it’s opaque in two coats.

OPI Russian Navy:

*****

I decided to do layering over the OPI Russian Navy with one coat of Nfu Oh 51. Nfu Oh 51 it’s stunning and complicated color. The base is jelly dark purple color with a lot of flakes. The flakes are mostly red, but in some angles you can also see green, blue and gold colors. It’s really unique and mesmerizing.

Have a nice day!! *Lyra*
