Add Some Bubbles to Your Summer with the OPI Coca-Cola Collection

June 5, 2014 by Kathryn 88 Comments

I’m not a big soda drinker, mainly because I’m not a fan of adding so much sugar to my diet, but I do love the fun and energy of the Coca-Cola Company. The brand is one that personifies happiness, positivity and joy, and now OPI has partnered with Coca-Cola to create a nail lacquer collection that embodies that spirit in a fabulous, calorie-free way!

The OPI Coca-Cola collection contains nine nail lacquers inspired by the most popular Coca-Cola beverages, from Sprite to Coke Zero to Fanta Grape. I received a set of the nail lacquers to review and I was so excited to see how OPI interpreted the colours of these iconic beverages. [Read more…]

Make Your Look Sparkle with OPI Spotlight on Glitter Nail Lacquers

March 1, 2014 by Kathryn 2 Comments

As a teenager, I had no interest in anything girly but as an adult, I love all things feminine. From fun makeup to cute fashions to anything pink or sparkly, my thirties have been all about embracing my inner girl. So the new Spotlight on Glitter collection from OPI was right up my alley. This set of six nail lacquers can be worn either on their own or as top coats to add sexy sparkle to solid nail colours. I recently received the collection to try, and I couldn’t wait to bling out my nails!

I often tell people that my favourite colour is rainbow, so when I saw the Chasing Rainbows shade, I knew that it would be the first one I tried. The polish features glitter of different colours and sizes in a clear lacquer, which makes it perfect as a top coat, but I wanted to see the polish sparkle all on its own. It takes a fairly thick coat to get a good covering of the rainbow glitter, but that one thick coat was all I needed for a great sparkly nail look! This polish was fun and light-hearted, just like me, and I completely fell in love with it. [Read more…]

Warm Up This Winter with the OPI Brazil Collection

There is nothing I love more than a vacation to a fabulous tropical destination, but when taking off to a sunny beach just isn’t on the agenda, at least I can make my day a little sunnier with some tropical-inspired fashions! This February, in honour of the country hosting this year’s World Cup, OPI is introducing the OPI Brazil collection and it is full of vibrant, sunny shades that are sure to make a woman feel a little warmer!

There are twelve shades in the complete collection and everyone is sure to find a favourite among them. I tend to favour the bright, vibrant colours but there are plenty of more subdued shades to choose from as well. While I don’t wear neutrals as often, Don’t Bossa Nova Me Around, a creamy nude, is such a great colour that I have a feeling it might just get a lot of use in day-to-day wear! [Read more…]

I received an assortment of new shades to test out and while some left me indifferent, others had me wowed. My personal favourite was the Haven’t the Foggiest shade. This sleek polish has an almost chrome-like finish that I fell in love with as soon as it was on my nails. [Read more…]
