NOTD: Sephora by OPI - Break a Leg-Warmer


I did not think too high of this polish when I first got the glimmer wonderland collection, but I really like it on my nails.
one coat, natural light
It is not just a dark grey shade, but also has a little bit of green undertone to it. I’m so glad that I tried it on and I do feel attached. It is very opaque and the result of one coat looks pretty good.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI - Natural Environ-mint


Today’s NOTD is Natural Environ-mint from Sephora by OPI, a light blue cream shade.
natural light, two coats
It looks pretty in the bottle, but not so much on my nails. I think it’s only personal preference and I am not really into this kind of shade in general.
Will you wear it?

NOTD: Sephora by OPI - How Cute is That?


As the name suggests, this pinky coral nail polish is so cute that I can see myself wearing every day in spring and summer. It has refined gold shimmer which adds more dimensions to the nail polish.
natural light, two coats
As always, it applies smooth and opaque in two coats.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI -- It’s Hippo to be Square


Today’s NOTD is It’s Hippo to be Square, a lilac creme. At first, I thought it was the same as China Glaze’s Light as Air, but it is definitely darker which makes it quite unique.
two coats, natural light
It is very opaque and one thick coat is enough for full coverage, but I always like adding a second coat.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI- Metro Chic


Today’s NOTD is another nail polish from Sephora by OPI, Metro Chic, a purple taupe color.
 This kind of shade is quite popular recently, but I am not really into it that much. This polish actually reminds me quite a lot of Rimmel’s Steel Grey, also a muddy purple shade. It appears to be a really good everyday color in fall/winter, but I still prefer my darker shades better.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI- Call Your Mother


This is my very first nail polish from Sephora by OPI. It is a purple shade with a hint of grey.
natural light, 2 coats

I loved it quite a lot when I first got it. But I’ve neglected it for a long time because I have some many other polishes and I just forget about it. These days, I just don’t like it as before and wish it would be more on the grey side.

NOTD : Sephora by OPI -- Fiercely Fabulous


Today’s NOTD is Fiercely Fabulous, a classic red.
two coats, natural light
I wore pink, nude polishes quite a lot and never thought I would be so into reds.  It is super pigmented and one coat is enough for a solid color. But I found it difficult to remove and it left red residue behind.
I am a little bit hesitated to wear it again, but I will definitely try something similar(of course after I’m done with project 10 pan).

NOTD: Sephora by OPI – Just a Little Dangerous


Today’s NOTD is Just a Little Dangerous, another polish from Sephora by OPI. This dark purple is so far my favorite from the glimmer wonderland set. I did not think too high of it, but it’s definitely a pleasant surprise. 

two coats, natural light

I love purple in general, and this one is gorgeous. Two coats are sufficient for opacity. The shimmer is a touch lighter than the base which makes the polish even prettier.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI – Sample Sale

Sample Sale is a very festive shade, and I think it is perfect for holiday season. It has a red base full with very fine shimmers. 

The shimmers are so fine that you can barely tell. It is perfectly opaque with two coats. I have worn this for three days consecutively which is quite a lot for me since I always repaint my nails every other day.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI – Dear Diary


Today’s NOTD is Dear Diary from Sephora by OPI, a milky baby pink cream shade.
3 coats, natural light
I like this color a lot, but the consistence is just awful. It is very streaky, and demands at least 3 coats for a solid color. As much as I love the shade, I still regret purchasing the full size bottle because at $9.5, I would expect much better quality.

NOTD: Sephora by OPI – Already Famous

 Today’s NOTD is another Sephora by OPI nail polish, Already Famous, a copper champagne metallic.
3 coats, natural light
It has a clear gel base, but it goes on quite opaque. There is silver glitter in it, but not overpowering, and on my nails it shows more bronzed. The picture above is actually more true to color. Under direct sunlight, it is more like a gold foil.

It applied smoothly and dried pretty fast even with three coats (I did use Sache Vite’s top coat).

NOTD: Sephora by OPI – I’m with Brad



Today’s NOTD is Sephora by OPI’s I’m with Brad, my most wanted one in Glimmer Wonderland Eighteen Piece Mini Nail Colour Set (click here for swatches). I’ve heard so much about it and it definitely deserves all the hype.
two coats, natural light
It is a black jelly base full of super fine red shimmer, which is stunning. It looks like red wine on nails, and if you look closer, the shimmer is just gorgeous especially under direct sunlight.

Two coats are sufficient for a solid color. It applies smoothly and dries fast as most Sephora by OPI nail polishes. I just love it so much.

Sephora by OPI -- Glimmer Wonderland Eighteen Piece Mini Nail Colour Set : Review & Swatch


I always like to buy mini nail polishes and this seems to be a good set with various shades. I’ve not tried any color on my nails so far, but I love all of them and I can not wait to paint my nails with them.
I've already put up some posts of NOTD with these nail polishes, if you're interested, click the names.
The First Row.

I have dear diary in full size.It’s on the sheer side and needs at least 3 coats to get an even application. I am in love with ‘How Cute is That?’ already, like the name, it is really cute.

NOTD – Sephora By OPI Going Nude, Eh?

Today's NOTD is ‘Going Nude, Eh?’, a straight up nude shade. If you want to paint foundation on your nails, this is perfect for you. Don’t get me wrong. I loved the nail polish so much when the nude heat was just in.  I still think it is a great nude shade but I’m over the trend now.  This nail polish has been well loved and there is only one third left which says it all.
