It's that time again....
Fresh manicure!
This time I just went for one color, a new one I had picked up at CVS.
Nicole by OPI, as well as OPI, frequently do celebrity collaborations and this is one of their latest which features Selena Gomez :)
Originally I had only picked up glitter polishes from the line but CVS was running a sale (I believe it was buy 2 Nicole by OPI get $5 Extra Bucks) so I couldn't resist!
The color I chose is called 'Selena' which is a really pretty peachy coral color with some subtle sparkle. Surprisingly I have nothing in my collection that is this color. The ones I own are either more orange or just overall darker so it was a nice addition.
Unfortunately this was not the easiest polish to work with - kind of on the thick side yet took 4 COATS to achieve an even and opaque look. Also none of the little glitters show up, which isn't a big deal for me since I prefer cream polishes but heck if it's in there it'd be nice if it made an appearance!
Overall I think it still looks nice and if you are just dying over the color go ahead and scoop it up but I really wasn't impressed with the way it applied nor do I like to have to apply soooo many coats. (It's not even like you can really wear this polish sheer - it's not thin, just applies unevenly until you build it up)
I'd probably give this polish a 3 out of 5.

I am wearing this polish in my latest YouTube video if you are interested in seeing what the color looks like on me.
Thanks so much for reading! Hope you've enjoyed : )
See you back here (hopefully) tomorrow!

I really like this color though I'm not sure it would look as good on my pale skin :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous color! Seems like it dries darker than bottle color, but it looks amazing on you! (:
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely lovely shade, very girly and fit for spring but 4 coats is pushing it for me :/
ReplyDeleteThat's such a stunning colour! Such a shame about the application though :(
