OPI Rising star

It is chilly in Sweden now, this morning there was frost on the grass for the first time. So it is really fall now. So how about a polish that looks like the leafs now? Rising star from OPIs Burlesque collection that came out last year.

This is a rich copper foil that shimmers a lot. This is not the color I normally fall for, but it is beautiful. No doubt about that.

The application was easy and I used three layers for full opacity.

China glaze Blue iguana

It's fall but I am wearing a polish from China glaze summer collection Island escapes, the blue Blue Iguana.

This is a beautiful blue foil polish that is dochrome. Love that! It sparkles a lot because it is filled with lots of small, small glassflekes and now and then it flashes in to purple. So cool! To bad I didn't get around to it until now, would have loved this on my toes during the summer.

The formula was a bit thin, but I settled with three layers although I still could see som visible nail line.

Orly Sweet peacock

OMG! I am wearing such a beautiful polish. Can't stop looking at my nails. It is Sweet peacock from Orly's fall collection Birds of a feather that my friend Lotta brought home to me from the US.

This is a blue-turqouise foil polish that is darker on the edges of the nails, and brighter in the middle. It looks amazing. It looks a bit like Swimsuit...nailed it! from OPI, but this one is lighter.

The formula was a bit tricky. The first layer was messy and left bold spots on the nail. I have never experienced that with a foil polish before, they are usually so easy I think. But with a second layer I smooth things out and after that I don't have to paint anymore. Two layers is enough.
