OPI OPI...Eurso Euro

Hi you guys! I'm wrapping up the OPI Euro Centrale Collection today with the last of the three dark cremes from the collection. OPI...Eurso Euro (not really sure what the name means lol) is a dark blue indigo with a creme finish.

The purple tint to the dark blue reminds me of blue ink, like that from Bic's blue ballpoint pens. The formula is great and similar to the other dark cremes in the collection - smooth and pigmented, drying to a glossy shine in two quick coats.

Now that I have tried all the colors from this collection, I have to say it's a lovely offering overall from OPI. For me, the standouts from the collection and my must-haves are Oy-Another Polish Joke, A Woman's Prague-ative, and Polka.com. All three are beautiful, versatile, and unique! My only small complaint with this collection is that there are a few (the dark cremes) that didn't quite fit with the spring/summer theme.

Let me know what you think of this collection in the comments below. What are the hits and misses for you, and which ones will be making it onto your buy list?

You can find OPI...Eurso Euro at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI I Saw...U Saw...We Saw...Warsaw

Happy Monday! Hope your week is off to an invigorating start! :-)

Today, I've got another of the three dark cremes from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection. I Saw...U Saw...We Saw...Warsaw (I know, the name's just awful!) is a cool-toned, dark navy blue with teal undertones in a creme finish.

I had no application issues with this. The formula is smooth and even, going onto the nails without any clumping or streaking. It's also pigmented, opaque in two quick coats that dry to a glossy shine. Just be sure to use a base coat and remove carefully, as it has the potential to stain a little bit.

OPI Polka.com & Vant to Bite My Neck?

Hi you guys! Hope you're all having a great weekend! :-)

I haven't posted in two days because the hubby and I just got an awesome board game, and we've have been playing it nonstop for the last two days lol. We've previously played a few games in the Ticket to Ride board game series with friends, and we totally loved them. Then we saw Ticket to Ride - Nordic Countries, and it was specifically designed for 2 to 3 players. Exactly what we were looking for! So we got it and have been playing non-stop. In fact, we finally had to take a break because my thumbs are all bruised from shuffling the cards. :D

Ok, back to polish! :P Today, I've got two colors from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you. Let's start off with another of my favorites from the collection. Polka.com is filled with small purple glitters and medium-sized pink, teal blue, and purple hexagon glitters, all in a sheer base.

I have one coat of Polka.com over Vant to Bite My Neck? in the swatches above. The formula is a little thicker and in order to get the medium hex glitters onto the nails, you do have to glob it on a bit and then coax them into the right spots. That's pretty much expected for larger glitters and is not too difficult to do. I love the color combination of the glitters in this. They look fantastic together, and I can't wait to try it over some other colors (especially lighter colors). 

Here's how Vant to Bite My Neck? looks by itself. Nothing too interesting with this one, just your typical vampy extra dark eggplant purple in a creme finish. The formula is fantastic, as typical of OPI dark cremes. It's smooth and pigmented, opaque in two coats.

You can find Polka.com and Vant to Bite My Neck? at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI A Woman's Prague-ative

Hi you guys! I've got another favorite of mine from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you today. A Woman's Prague-ative is a shimmery reddish copper with tons of gold and bronze shimmers.

If you've been following me for a while, you'd know that this color is totally me. It's so shimmery and sparkly that I can't help but love it! :-) It has a great formula. It applies smoothly, and the shimmers distribute evenly across the nails. I did two coats for the swatches above. At that point, it's 95% of the way there, but it's still a little sheer under bright lights. I'm totally ok with it, but you may need a third coat if you want that last 5%.

This reminded me of Sprung from the Mariah Carey by OPI Collection, so I dug that out for a quick look. They are actually quite different, I'm happy to report. Sprung is a few shades darker and much more brown, while Prague-ative is lighter, more red in base, and has more golden shimmers. Both are lovely, and I think they are different enough that you'll be fine in having both.

You can find A Woman's Prague-ative at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Hands Off My Kielbasa!

Hi hi! Continuing along with the OPI Euro Centrale Collection, I've got another polish from the set to share with you today. Hands Off My Kielbasa! is a tough color to describe. It's a brownish rose and tan color with pink and bronze shimmers in a metallic finish.

This has a pearly sheen to it that depending on the light can look a tad frosty. The formula is great on this, probably helped by the fact that it's a metallic. It's smooth and pigmented. It flows evenly onto the nails without any issues and is opaque in two quick coats. Personally, I'm not a huge fan of this color. The brown shade and the frostiness is a double whammy for me. But that's a personal preference. If those are things you enjoy, then you'll love this color.

You can find Hands Off My Kielbasa at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Oy-Another Polish Joke!

Hi you guys! Hanging in there this week? It looks like I'm stuck in meetings all day today. Hopefully they are interesting so I don't fall asleep lol. :-)

Today, I've got one of my favorites and definitely one of the more interesting polishes from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you. Oy-Another Polish Joke! is filled with small sparkly gold shimmers in a sheer base.

This polish is quite sheer by itself. In the swatches, I'm showing three coats, and you can still see a fair amount of visible nail lines at that. It isn't too noticeable in person because the sparkliness hides some of that sheerness, but it's probably more sheer than most would be comfortable with.

Oy-Another Polish Joke! over My Paprika Is Hotter Than Yours

I definitely prefer to wear an underwear with this, and I feel that's when this polish really comes alive. I've got one coat of Oy over My Paprika Is Hotter Than Yours! in the picture above, and you can see that the combination is fantastic and a little unexpected. I certainly didn't think Oy would look so good as a top coat, but it really does. I'm looking forward to trying it over some other colors soon.

Formula-wise, Oy goes onto the nails easily and smoothly. It has a medium consistency and is just a little thicker than OPIs usually are. I think it's due to the suspension base that keeps all the shimmers evenly distributed throughout the polish. Dry time is a little longer due to the consistency, but nothing that I could not wait for.

You can find Oy-Another Polish Joke! at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI My Paprika is Hotter Than Yours!

Hi you guys! Hope you all had a terrific weekend! :-)

Today, I've got the only red from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you. My Paprika Is Hotter Than Yours! is a bright orange red with subtle shimmers in a mostly creme finish.

This dries just a shade darker on the nails than what you see in the bottle. The shimmers are hardly visible once on the nails, but they do add a pearly sheen to the finish. This formula is fantastic. It's pigmented and buttery smooth, really just gliding onto the nails. One coat is all that's needed for opaque coverage, though I did two in the swatches just to be extra sure that everything is even.

You can find My Paprika Is Hotter Than Yours! at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Suzi's Hungary Again!

Hi you guys! Happy weekend! :-)

Today, I've got another color from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you. Suzi's Hungary Again! is a warm, medium pink with subtle silver shimmers in a creme finish.

Once on the nails, the shimmers are visible under bright lighting, but mostly hidden otherwise. This is a beautiful pink shade. I love that it leans just a little more to the warm side, which is not something I see in pinks often. My only small gripe with the polish is that I wish the shimmers were more visible. I've always been more partial to shimmery/metallic pinks than to creme pinks, but that's a personal preference. :-)

The formula is smooth and even, drying to a glossy shine. It was still a little streaky at two coats, so I did three for the swatches.

You can find Suzi's Hungary Again! at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Can't Find My Czechbook

Hi hi! Friday is finally here! Weeeeee! :-)

Today, I've got another pretty color from the OPI Euro Centrale Collection to share with you. Can't Find My Czechbook is a cool-toned medium blueish teal with a creme finish.

This teal has a slightly dusty quality to it, so it appears a little muted and not too vibrant or bright. These sorts of colors, with their fresh and muted qualities, are so popular at the moment, so this is definitely an on-trend color for spring. The formula is thin and smooth, going evenly onto the nails and drying quickly to a glossy finish. What I have in the swatches is two coats, but it's still a little streaky if you look closely, so an additional coat wouldn't hurt. 

You can find Can't Find My Czechbook at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI You're Such a Budapest

Hi you guys! Happy Valentine's Day! :-)

Continuing with the OPI Euro Centrale Collection today, I've got another pretty creme to share with you. You're Such a Budapest is a cool-toned periwinkle lavender with a creme finish and just a hint shimmers.

Once it's on the nails, the shimmers are incredibly subtle. I think I managed to capture a few if you click to enlarge some of the pictures, but you have to look really carefully. The formula is smooth and easy to apply, though a little thin, so I did three coats. Each coat dries in a jiffy, so I didn't have to wait long between them.

You can find You're Such a Budapest at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $9 for 0.5 fl oz.
