OPI Euro Centrale Collection - My Picks!

Happy Monday! 

Today I have a selection from the newest OPI collection, Euro Centrale. I decided to get 5 out of the 12 colors below.

You're Such A Budapest

You're Such A Budapest is a dusty lilac with a silvery blue shimmer. I obviously love this color, because I am a purple polish addict! I used three thin coats for these pics.

 Can't Find My Czechbook

Can't Find My Czechbook is one of those "Tiffany blue" wannabe colors, a touch darker than the real thing. Still very pretty! I used two coats for these pics.

 OPI... Eurso Euro

OPI... Eurso Euro's official description calls it a "deep blue" creme. To me this seems to lean much more purple than blue - which again I have no issues with! Out of all the colors I picked up from this collection, this is definitely my favorite. It is such a rich color, and I am already dreaming up hundreds of crazy glitter combos and other ideas to use this with! Two thin coats for this beauty!

 Suzi's Hungary Again

Suzi's Hungary Again... pretty color, pain in the tushie to photograph! No matter what kind of light I was in, or how much I fiddled with it while editing, I could not get this color to show right! It is an extremely bright coral, almost neon, with a very subtle shimmer. It is much more pink than these photos show. I will definitely be sporting this on my toes a lot once the warm weather gets here! I used three coats for these pics. You can get a better feel of the true color in the photo below, as a base for the glitter from this collection.

Polka.com is a fun mix of medium sized purple, pink, and teal hex glitter with tiny purple glitter suspended in a clear base. As soon as I saw the first promo shots for this collection, I fell in love with this. It is just a gorgeous mix and I love how well it matches all the colors I picked up! For all the photos above I used one coat over the base color. And another clever name from the lovelies at OPI! 

So there you have it! This is a really nice collection from OPI, I may even have to go back and pick up one or two more colors that I was iffy about at first. My absolute favorites are OPI... Eurso Euro and Polka.com. 

Have you gotten any of these beauties yet? Which colors are your favorites?

Zoya Spring 2013 Lovely Collection

Good morning!

Today I get to share with you my 3 picks from Zoya's new spring collection. It makes me excited just to say spring, because it had just been way too cold lately! These colors definitely put you in a good mood and get you ready for the warm days ahead!

I decided to buy two cremes and one shimmer from the collection, and I am SO happy with my choices! These are definitely what I'd call Easter colors, and I love them. I did not use a top coat in any of the photos below.

 Blu

Blu is a soft baby blue creme. I can't get over how pretty and delicate it is, it reminds me of Cinderella! The formula was only the tiniest bit runny, but evened out nicely after two coats. 

 Neely

Neely is the perfect springtime green, which unfortunately my camera had trouble picking up. This is not a color I would normally gravitate towards, but there was just something about it that drew me in. This creme applied perfectly in two coats.

Julie

And last but certainly not least, my absolute favorite from this collection, Julie. A perfect lilac with the most beautiful shimmer. I can't begin to tell you how much I'm in love with this color! The formula was only slightly sheer and opaque at two coats, but I used three for this photo just to even it all out. I can't wait to wear this again!

I picked these up at my local beauty supply, you can also get them at zoya.com and Ulta for $8 each!

Do you have any of the Lovely polishes? Which do you like best?

XOX,

Jess
