OPI Tomorrow Never Dies

Hi, you guys! Hope the weekend is treating you well! :-)

Today, continuing with OPI's Skyfall Collection, I have Tomorrow Never Dies to share with you. It is a cool-toned purple with lots of blue shimmers in a metallic finish.

This is definitely an interesting color. You can see more purple or blue, depending on the lighting. My camera always freaks out a bit when trying to capture purple, but you can see how it looks both purple and blue at the same time, though in real life, you will see more purple than my pictures show. Formula is smooth and thin, and dry time is quick like a bunny. I needed the usual two coats for opacity.

You can find Tomorrow Never Dies at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $8.50 for 0.5 fl oz.

OPI Casino Royale

Happy Friday, lovely readers! :-)

Today, I have the second of two cremes from OPI's Skyfall Collection to share with you. Casino Royale is a vampy, medium plum in a creme finish.

Compared with Skyfall, the other creme in the collection, they both have a common deep red tone, but Skyfall leans more burgundy while Casino Royale leans more purple. Application of Casino Royale is a breeze with its thin and smooth formula, and it is opaque in two quick coats.

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

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.

OPI GoldenEye

Continuing with OPI's Skyfall Collection, today I have one of two glitter polishes from the collection to show you. GoldenEye is densely packed with small gold glitters in a sheer base.

I didn't have any trouble with application. The glitters spread out easily enough without much coaxing. You need one thin coat followed by one thicker coat, or three thin coats for even coverage and opacity. Dry time is a little slower for this polish, typical of this type of glitter, since the formula is slightly thicker to keep all the glitters nicely suspended in the base.

In my opinion, GoldenEye is one of the standouts of the Skyfall Collection. It looks shimmery and sparkly in the bottle, but it really wow-ed me when I put it on. The glitters have this flat, generously chunky look once on the nails, so that it resembles beaten gold sheet metal. It is totally gorgeous! :-)

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

OPI Die Another Day

I have another polish to show you today from OPI's Skyfall Collection, and this one is a personal favorite of mine. Die Another Day is a warm, orange-toned red with a metallic finish.

On the orange-red scale, this color is definitely more red than orange, but the orange is a noticeable component. The formula is thin and pigmented, making application super easy. While it is a metallic, there are almost no distinguishable brush strokes. It is almost a one-coater, though I did two in the swatches just to add a little extra depth to the color. Of the three red colors from this collection, Die Another Day is my favorite. I just can't resist jewel tones, and this one is exactly the sort of rich vibrant color I love. 

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

OPI You Only Live Twice

Continuing with OPI's Skyfall Collection, today I have another gorgeous color on the red spectrum to share with you. You Only Live Twice is a medium magenta red with loads of pink and gold shimmers.

This has a wonderfully bright and rich base that can look more pink or more red, depending on the lighting. The strong shimmers light up and sparkle like crazy under direct lighting or under the sun (if that's still around where you are :P). Formula-wise, it's one of those polishes that surprises you as a two-coater because each coat comes out so thin and smooth during application.

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

OPI The Spy Who Loved Me

Happy weekend, you guys! :-)

I have been so excited for OPI's Skyfall Collection ever since the first murmurs about it came out a few months ago, and now I finally have the twelve-polish collection in my paws. I'm super excited to share all of the colors with you! Today, we're kicking off the collection with one of a few from the collection that could be categorized as red, and the only true red in the collection. The Spy Who Loved Me is a tomato red with tons of red and gold glass fleck shimmers.

The rich red base looks to be just a little bit cool toned to my eyes, while the golden shimmers warm it up, so the end result is pretty cool/warm balanced. The shimmers are nicely suspended in the base and really stand out on the nails. As for formula, this is typical of a great OPI - smooth, easy to apply, and pigmented. Two coats is all I needed to get opaque coverage.

You can find The Spy Who Loved Me at your local nail salons and beauty stores for $8.50 for 0.5 fl oz.
