Nicole By OPI Liquid Metals collection

Today I have swatches of the 4-piece Liquid Metals collection. These polishes are all a high-shine foil like finish. I was surprised there wasn't a silver polish in these but also glad to see some more interesting colors. These all featured the new Perfect Stroke brush and were very nice to apply. I did 3 coats each out of habit (and maybe a little bit of OCD) but could have probably gotten away with 2. I can't wait to try stamping with these babies!
The Next Ceo- almost cool toned gold.


Rich in Spirit- A lovely slightly teal blue.

It Starts With Me- I'm not so sure about the name on this one but the color is a nice pinky-peach, I would almost say rose gold.
Miss Independent- I can't help but think of the Ne-Yo song when I see the name of this one! It's a very pale pink shade.

What do you think about the Liquid Metals collection? See any you want to pick up? What color would you use as a base for stamping with these?

Orly Solid Gold

I typically hate gold polish but Solid Gold is a gorgeous darker gold matte metallic. What a mouthful! From last years Metal Chic collection and is my favorite of the 3. Application was fantastic- 2 coats.

4 colors from China Glaze: Vintage Vixen

I know everyone has been swatching these, sorry! When they first announced the Vintage Vixen collection I was extremely excited. But once I checked out swatches my initial excitement died quite a bit. I only ended up picking up 4 colors from this collection (although I may pick up Riveter Rouge despite my hatred of reds). I feel like a lot of these colors I've already seen but the theme is what got me, I love it! Anyways, I ended up absolutely loving the ones I got, here are my swatches:

Swing Baby. A gorgeous taupe metallic. I feel like this leans rose gold a bit. This is highly reflective, my flash bounced beautifully off of this. A very unique metallic polish!


Classic Camel. Caramel yellow-beigey goodness. I can't think of another polish anything like this one. It has some lovely gold flecks mixed in. There are a few bald spots in my swatches but I think that was my impatient application. I had a horrible feeling this would wash me out but I don't think so, thoughts?

Jitterbug. Another unique metallic polish. Charcoal gray, loaded with silver glitter. Nothing much to say on this but once again, love it.

Ingrid. Alright, I totally absolutely freaking LOVE this polish. I didn't want to take it off when I was swatching. Warm comfy brown with loads of light gold shimmer. This is my ideal fall polish and I can't wait to put this back on my fingers!

So, did you pick up anything from Vintage Vixens?
