I have been a bit busy trying to settle in and live in a new place for the first time which is quite stressful and I have to be honest here, my nails have not been updated as regularly as I had hoped. Quite often I have had *gasp* bare nails!!!
But now it's the Christmas Holidays! And with Christmas music blasting from every cafe I am looking forward to going home and spending some quality time with my...nails?
But, since I've been gone I have discovered this nail polish by OPI. It's great because it lasts for a long time, and because of its nude tone even when it starts chipping you can get away with it for a while, which is great when your 'to do' list seems never ending and no matter how busy you are, you still get nothing done!!
When she was visiting my mum brought me this polish and I was sceptical at first as I usually prefer bright reds, blues etc. But whilst reading vogue I saw a page on the rise of nude colours this season so I thought I would give it a try. I loved it!
It's a subtle brown/camel colour which is very easy to apply as OPI have perfected their brushes to a nice triangle shape, which is a huge plus of OPI. The infinite shine element also helps this polish, its very thick when you put on the first coat and almost appears like a gel polish. After another coat and a top coat the shine is fabulous, and I was using OPI 'rapidry' top coat which means they are touch dry in about 15 minutes which is great when you need to rush of to see people or maybe do some work...
I think this is a great neutral colour for autumn/winter, and appears very slick due to the shine. However, on Christmas Day and New Years Eve I will be favouring a bright, sparkly, gold manicure.
This colour lasted for a while, and the shine lasted until I removed it!
Shine: 5!!
Richness of colour: 3
Classicness: (a camel is always a classic) 3
Overall: 3.95
