Too Fancy Lacquer Cooper Trooper

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have a quick post for you! This is Too Fancy Lacquer Cooper Trooper, a gorgeous pine green linear holo. As with all linear holos, this is much more spectacular in the direct sun but alas, I swatch at night lol!

Two perfectly lovely coats plus topcoat.


Have you tried Too Fancy Lacquer? What are your favorite polishes from the brand?

Talk to you soon!

OPI Washington DC Collection for Fall 2016!

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

Today I have the OPI Fall 2016 Washington DC collection to share with you! I have all 15 polishes so let's just get to it! (Side note: I believe there are 3 additional Limited Edition shades available for purchase but I haven't seen those yet!)


First is Pale to the Chief, a true nude with the slightest slightest slight blue shimmer, which was basically not visible at all once applied to the nails. Whoops. This was the tiniest bit sheer after the second coat, but I will say that I also had some blue stained nails so if your nails are not stained smurf blue, you could most likely do 2 coats and have full opacity. For me, I used 3 plus topcoat.

Never A Dulles Moment is a gorgeous sunflower yellow creme. This was 3 coats plus topcoat. I didn't have any issues with formula and I pretty much just expect to do 3 coats for any yellow. I love this color, though!


Freedom of Peach is an orange creme. This was 2 coats plus topcoat.


Yank My Doodle is a rusty orangey color, and I quite like this one! This was two coats, plus topcoat.

Madam President is a pinky red (it looks more pink in person) with a FANTASTIC formula. This was 2 coats but alllllmost one.

OPI By Popular Vote is a maroon creme, opaque in two coats.

We The Female is a dark burgundy creme, opaque in 3 coats. This was almost a jelly/crelly consistency.

Kerry Blossom is a deep purple creme. 3 coats, plus topcoat.

Suzi - The First Lady of Nails is a gorgeous dark green creme. This was 2 coats plus topcoat.

Inside The Isabelletway is a tan creme, 2 coats plus topcoat.

Squeaker of The House is a medium cool toned brown. This was 2 coats, plus topcoat.

Shh... It's Top Secret is a super super super dark brown. This actually looked brown in person but not so much in pictures lol. This was 2 coats, plus topcoat.

Stay Off The Lawn! is a pine green creme. I loved this one, I'm sure you could guess. 2 coats, plus topcoat.

CIA = Color Is Awesome, a dark gray with a tinge of blue. I don't have many colors like this! I like it! 2 coats, plus topcoat.

"Liv" in the Gray is a dark Prussian blue. No surprise that I love this, too. 2 coats, plus topcoat!

I actually really really loved this collection. The yellow and green shades speak to me! LOL

What shades are your favorite??

Talk to you soon!

OPI Infinite Shine Olive For Green

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

This is my first OPI Infinite Shine polish and honestly, the long wear feature was not why I bought this: LOOK AT THE COLOR!! It's so gorgeous, such a stunning deep olive green. This is 2 coats, plus topcoat.

I didn't test the longevity of this polish so I can't comment on that but I adore this color and have my eye on a few others from the Infinite Shine line that I want to pick up! So beautiful!

Do you love greens like this shade?

Talk to you soon!

OPI Ginger Bells

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

I have all OPI swatches to show you this week! The first is an oldie but a goodie and new to my collection. I was given this by my friend Jamie a few months ago and finally pulled it out of my untrieds bin.

This is Ginger Bells, a beautiful dark orange (ginger, if you will... heehee). This is an older polish but has a great formula. This was two coats plus topcoat.


Do you have this beauty? What do you think??

Formula X Ballet Barre

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

A quick NOTD using a polish I recently purchased from the clearance section of Sephora. This is Formula X Ballet Barre, a silvery gunmetal metallic polish. I don't have a ton of colors like this and I was intrigued.

This was two coats plus topcoat and the bumps on my pointer and ring finger are on my nail and no fault of the polish!



Talk to you soon!

Formula X Urban Bush Babes Everdream?

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose

I had to buy this gorgeous evergreen polish from the Formula X and Urban Bush Babes collab.

Everdream? is a beautiful evergreen creme polish. This was opaque in two coats and while it looks almost black in pictures, it definitely looks green in person. Such a gorgeous color!! I did add topcoat.

Orly Breathable Feeling Free

Hey guys!

Nothing To Disclose


Today I have a new series from Orly, called Breathable. Orly states that this range of colors and polishes will nourish and hydrate with argan oil, pro-vitamin B5, and vitamin C.

I saw the display in Ulta and was intrigued so I grabbed one color to try out, Feeling Free, a deep purple.

The formula was nice, opaque in two coats. This polish says it doesn't require a topcoat but I automatically add topcoat because it's just a habit, lol.


Have you tried out the Breathable line yet? What do you think?

Talk to you soon!
