"I Sea You Wear OPI"

Hi everyone! I can't believe it's been 4 weeks since my last blog post. Where has the time gone?!

I picked up my DSLR camera last week and thought I would use my macro lens to capture my freshly painted nails over the Memorial Weekend. ^_^ I'm wearing OPI's new shade called, "I Sea You Wear OPI." It's part of the new OPI Brights Collection for Summer! I'm still wearing it as I type this out this long overdue blog post. The staying power is great with the use of my favorite base coat.

It's a BEAUTIFUL blue metallic polish with shimmer that will bring a smile to your face. :-)

I love everything about this bottle of polish. OPI always nails it! ;) The formula was great which made it so easy to apply!

OPI's Description: Look who's loving waves of shimmering metallic blue.

I hope you have a wonderful Friday and an even more amazing weekend!

Talk to you soon! -Steph

p.s. I made a Youtube video slide show of this polish. :)

NEW OPI, "DS TOURMALINE"

Hello! I hope everyone is having a wonderful Wednesday. I'm currently watching Forks Over Knives on Netflix. I cleared and cleaned out my fridge earlier! It's so wonderful to be able to take day off to tidy up the house. And catch up on my blogging and blog reading. :D

OPI recently released two new DS or Designer Series nail polishes. I'm wearing the new OPI Designer Series DS Tourmaline. It is the sparkliest hot pink with orange and lavender iridescent glitters. The colors look incredibly pretty together, it's the perfect Summer polish!

 This shade simply sparkles and shines in the sun. :)

DS Tourmaline was released along with DS Titanium, which I also have and will swatch soon!

Thank you for stopping by my blog. :)

OPI Brazil, "Red Hot Rio"

Red Hot Rio

A ruby red as hot as the most exciting city in Brazil.

This is my favorite red polish since OPI "Big Apple Red!" The formula is amazing and I got a perfect application with two coats. The red is absolutely perfect and I think it should be added to the classic list!

New OPI Glitter Polishes!!

I'm so excited OPI is introducing some new glitter polishes! As most of you know, I'm a big glitter nail polish aficionado. ;)

What's even cooler is they created a peel-able base coat especially for glitter polishes! GENIUS! I know a lot of you are hesitant about wearing glitter because it can be time consuming to remove without the right polish remove. Waste time no more!! Plus, who doesn't secretly love to peel of nail polish. Am I right? lol 

Glitter On, Glitter Off!

OPI Glitter Off Peel-able Base Coat Allows for Glitter Nail Lacquer Removal in Seconds

Glitter Off by OPI is a new, peel-able base coat that allows for the quick and easy removal of nail lacquer when applied beneath any glitter or dark nail color.  Glitter Off provides a base for quick one-step removal and protects natural nails, while simultaneously making nail colors brighter. Glitter Offis designed to leave nails

polish-free and stain-free in seconds, revealing a clean nail surface without the use of lacquer remover. 

“Women love glitter nail lacquer, which adds a glamorous element to any manicure. However, it can be difficult and frustrating to remove.  Now OPI fans can fully embrace the glitter nail trend without the accompanying hassle.  Simply brush on one thin layer of Glitter Off to bare nails, wait until it dries clear and then apply as many coats of glitter lacquer as needed to get the desired look,” explains Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Co-Founder & Executive VP.  “Glitter Off is designed to last for a few days, allowing for glitter shades to be changed frequently or worn just for a special occasion or night out. It’s so easy to use – and when it’s time to remove it, peel!”

To remove, use a cuticle stick to gently push and peel the glitter lacquer off the nail. No nail polish remover is necessary for this final step.

Endless Sparklebilities!
