OPI - Casino Royale + Glitter Gal Soft Shades Daybreak Soft

Casino Royale - 2 coats


These are indoors but near a window at apx 3 p.m. on an overcast day



A bit warmer light


Every now and then something surprises you.  I decided to layer Glitter Gal Shade Shifters Daybreak Soft over top.  1 coat in several different lights.

OPI Peel me a Gobi Grape

Here is something that some amazing friends gifted me. Something that I had been wanting for a LONG time. I had appropriately dubbed it, Peel me a GOD DAMN Gobi Grape. Named as such from my frustration of not being able to acquire it at that point ;)

OPI - Chatters Me Up

Apparently this is a dupe for Orly Rococo A-Go-Go but I did not have that at the time I swatched this. I do now.. but it is a gift. I will keep it untainted ;)

I love this polish. It doesn't have that gold spark like you see in the bottle, but I don't care. It was 1 coat and it dried in a flash. Formula was fabulous and the colour is gorgeous. This is a Canadian exclusive at Chatters salons.





I could not leave it alone (of course) so here it is with 1 coat of OPI Divine Swine and 1 coat of China Glaze Dollhouse with an accent finger of Kleancolor Chunky Holo Purple (LOVE).

OPI - Movin' Out

I originally swatched this on its lonesome. I did not love it. Now I do love it!

2 coats over black. Here are 10 gazillion pictures.

Indoors (apologies as some pics are blurry)










Outdoors, overcast.








Thanks for looking! Happy Canadian Thanksgiving! NOM NOM NOM SLEEP SLEEP SLEEP Pin It

OPI - Sapphire in the Snow & NOPI - Canadian Star

Sapphire in the snow is gorgeous. Moxie I lurve you! It does not look as dark as it is in these pics.




This was 2 coats with no topcoat. It makes me want Roadhouse Blues. I know they are supposed to be relatively similar. I absolutely love this polish. Smooth, creamy perfection. So deep! I cannot wait to rock out the jewel tones this fall.

Canadian Star really took the panties and twisted them though!

Here she is in full sun




She likes to skulk around in the shadows though. Look how frigging gorgeous she is in the shade!!





Canadian star is sheer. You need to layer it. Layer it over something dark and pull it into the shadows and make love to it with your eyes! Pin It

I had an amazing time and I have a lot more swatching to do with the spoils of my trip! Pin It
