OPI Anti-Bleak

Hi you guys! Happy hump-of-the-week! :-)

Today, continuing with the 'studio' shades of the Mariah Carey by OPI Collection, I have the only creme in the collection to share with you. Anti-Bleak is a dark, vampy plum purple with red and burgundy tones in a creme finish.






The formula is fantastic. It's smooth and buttery, gliding onto the nails in thin, even coats. It's also quite pigmented, and you can almost get away with just one coat, though I did two for the swatches to get the depth of the color to match what you see in the bottle. I had a little bit of trouble getting my camera to capture the exact shade of this purple. In real life, the color is about two shades more purple than what you see in the swatches.

You can find Anti-Bleak at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

    1. So sorry, purple is always so hard to photograph lol. ><
      I think it's pretty close, but if you are swayed by the color in the pictures, check out this color in person before you make the final decision. :-)

  7. I love this color! It's nothing super original colorwise, but like you said, the coverage is amazing and I'm always down for a dark vampy color!
