OPI Skyfall

Hi you guys! It's Thursday, and this week has just flown by. I did some fall shopping earlier in the week, and found the cutest pair of boots at DSW. It's just in the nick of time too. My prior pair of boots had holes in the front, which means you could see my socks if you looked carefully and my socks would get wet when it rained lol. I love the satisfaction of finding a good pair of shoes, especially during a desperate moment. :D

Anyways, back to polish. I've got another wonderful color from OPI's Skyfall Collection to share with you today. Skyfall is the namesake of the collection and of the movie that inspired the collection, so my expectations were high and it does not disappoint. It is a dark vampy red with a slight hint of brown in a creme finish.






This is a variation of the ultra-popular oxblood shade for this fall, so you'll definitely be on trend with this color. I found the formula to be thin and smooth, typical of OPI's cremes, though this one is just a tad on the runny side. Be sure to wipe the excess off the brush before application, or you may get some dollops that run onto the nails. It is also fairly pigmented, and I needed just the two usual coats for opacity.

You can find Skyfall at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $8.50 for 0.5 fl oz.
