NOTD: Jade Ocean

Hey everyone! I have decided that I love this combination. This is OPI Jade is the New Black and Sinful Colors Green Ocean. The flakies don't show up terribly well in the picture, but it looks great in real life. The colors really coordinate well together, plus the fact that I love flakies. What is your favorite flakie nail polish?

Sinful Colors Green Ocean

Hi everyone! Yesterday I promised you all this swatch so here it is in all of its glittery and flakie glory. Please ignore the ugly yellowness of my nails! The glitter in real life shows up more blue and green than in the picture. I can't wait to try to layer this over green and blue polishes! I do wish that this polish had less glitter and more flakies, and that it was a little denser. Otherwise it applies well, although the clear base dries semi-matte so you may want to use a topcoat with this. Isn't it gorgeous though, I love how pretty it is in the bottle! Are you planning on picking this one up? It won't be with the Sinfuls, it has it's own display!

OPI Merry Midnight


I freaking love this polish! This is my first flakie, and I love it! I would describe this polish as a red-plum sheerish base with blue sparkles and rose-gold flakies. My boyfriend loves it too!

It is a bit sheer for my taste, it does need three coats to avoid a visible nail line, but it sparkles and shines like there is no tomorrow! It is slightly gritty; but that is nothing that a nice thick topcoat can't fix. This will be the only polish that I pick up from OPI's Holiday Wishes collection, but I am really happy with my choice!
