Disclaimer: Products featured were provided for review. Hello everyone, happy Thursday! Today I have swatches and reviews of three gorgeous shades from OPI's new Spring and Summer Brazil Collection. The collection was released earlier last month and features 12 shades of neutral and bright polishes (mostly creams) perfect for the upcoming warm and sunny weather. To read more, click....... I Just Can't Cope-acabana: "Nothing lifts your spirits like this sunshine yellow." I personally love love love yellow polishes but rarely wear them because it's hard to find one with a good formula; they all tend to be very sheer and patchy. The formulation of Can't Cope-acabana is not perfect but it is substantially better than most yellow cream I have tried. For my swatches I used three coats to obtain opacity. The polish wasn't too patchy and in fact was pretty self-leveling. Cope-acabana looks a lot paler in the bottle but when worn on the nails it comes off as a lovely daisy yellow. Three coats, no top coat. Three coats, no top coat. AmazON...AmazOFF: "I'm making the switch to this deep jungle green." My favorite of the three, AmazON....AmazOFF not only has a hilarious name but it's also an uber gorgeous shade of dark teal. The formula, as you might expect, was AmazING (did that joke work there, haha). For my swatches I used two coats and the finish was opaque but also had a squishy jelly feel to it! The only thing I want to caution about this particular shade is that make sure to wear a good base coat because a color like this will leave a stain on your nails. I swatched this guy for no more than 15 minutes and it left a blue tinge on my nails. Though thankfully that was removed with an old toothbrush and some whitening toothpaste. Two coats, no top coat. Two coats, no top coat. OPI Scores a Goal: "Make your point in this winning shade of rich chocolate." Last up, OPI Scores a Goal is a gorgeous rich brown with almost a plummy/red undertone. The formulation of this was also very wonderful, two coats for opacity and the polish is self leveling and smooth. This isn't a color I normally gravitate towards but it actually looks really nice when worn, very sophisticated and classy. Two coats, no top coat. Two coats, no top coat. The drying time of all three polishes (even the three coater Cope-acabana) was very good and they all had a very good shine without the help of any top coat. My recommendation out of the three is definitely AmazON...AmazOFF, and if you are into yellows, Cope-acabana is definitely worth checking out! Did you pick up any shades from the OPI Brazil line? Do you plan to? Let me know in the comments below!
*press sample Hey friends! If you follow me on Instagram these swatches will look familiar to you. I hope you were looking forward to the OPI Iceland Fall/Winter 2017 Collection as much as I was because my review is almost all positive! I didn't have a single application issue, and there was only one finish that I didn't like. This was my first time trying the OPI Infinite Shine formula. Since I don't keep polish on my fingers for long I can't say I've noticed a difference personally, but I certainly don't have any complaints. Let's take a look... Aurora Berry-alis is a muted berry creme. I LOVE berry shades and was surprised that this is different from all the ones I own! Shown is two coats plus top coat. Check Out the Old Geysirs is a medium gray blue with a bright blue shimmer. After swatching this I immediately put it on my toes so I could enjoy it longer. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Icelanded a Bottle of OPI is a cement gray/beige creme. I am a big neutral fan but this one wasn't especially flattering on me. Nothing wrong with it, just not in love. Shown is two coats plus top coat. I'll Have A Gin and Tectonic is a dusty nudey peach creme. This may look really similar to a couple of the shades from the California Dreaming collection. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Krona-logical Order is a deep taupe coffee brown creme. I am loving the darker shades in this collection. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Less is Norse is a deep muted gray-blue creme. Gorgeous! What more can I say? Shown is two coats plus top coat. One Heckla of a Color! is a dusty medium purple creme. The dusty shades are just killing me. So pretty. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Reykjavik Has All The Hot Spots is a rosy bronze metallic shimmer. Okay, here we go.. one I'm not feeling positive about. While it's not the most streaky metallic I've seen, streaks just bother me. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Suzi & the Artic Fox is a very deep grayish plum creme. I was surprised by this color and its subtlety, which was tough to photograph just right. Shown is two coats plus top coat. This Isn't Greenland is a light pistachio green creme. I was excited to have such a unique green shade, but it didn't do much for me. I know lots of people who love it though! Shown is two coats plus top coat. That's What Friends Are Thor is a deep chocolate brown creme. Out of the two deep brown shades this is the one a prefer. Shown is two coats plus top coat. Turn On the Northern Lights is deep indigo jelly base with bright reddish shimmer. This one steals the show! So, so stunning! Shown is two coats plus top coat. The collection is available now anywhere OPI is sold. Individual shades in the Infinite Shine formula retail for $12.50. If you get just one shade from this collection it has to be Turn On the Northern Lights! My other two favorites are Less is Norse and Check Out the Old Geysirs. What do you think of the collection as a whole? What are your favorites? Thanks for reading! I'd love for you to follow me on social media xx Emiline xx

and wasn’t disappointed. I rarely venture beyond nude hues for my finger nails. I know it’s silly but I find it distracting, so I end up keeping color for my toes. However, this beautiful mauve nail color has broadened my neutral palette. photo by © kelsi jean
Printed using white ink technology, this decal can be use over any nail colour, All of my decals are chemical resistant and can be used with gel polish or encapsulated into acrylic. I pride myself on my decals being original hand drawn mini pieces of art and of the highest quality. The decals need to be applied over a white base, simply soak the decals for 10-20 seconds, then slide the image off the backing sheet, onto the nail. There’s lots of YouTube Tutorials if you search ‘Queen of Decals’ MY hints and tips: I like to tuck the decal right into the sidewalls with my cuticle tool, then I gently melt away the access decal using a small nail art brush dipped in acetone. Please feel free to ask me any questions.
