Sephora by OPI Three Way Mirror

Happy Monday? Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Today I have Three Way Mirror from Sephora by OPI for you. As I am sure you are all aware, you can no longer get these at Sephora, but I do find them occasionally at my local Winner's store. I'm still sad that this line was discontinued.
Three Way Mirror is a creamy brown leaning rose shade. Had I been more careful in applying it would have been a one coater for me, but I used two. Self leveled to perfection. No issues at all.

I really liked the way this shade looked. It went very nicely with my skin tone. I would also classify this as work appropriate, but I guess that may depend on where you work. Although these aren't readily available, I'm sure you can still find them on ebay and in swaps.
Hope you enjoyed the swatches!

Sephora by OPI Cover Me In Petals

 I am actually quite disappointed that Sephora no longer carries these polishes. I liked most of the shades I tried. Although the new Fomula X is great too!

Cover Me In Petals is a vibrant coral creme. The formula is thin, but highly pigmented. Be careful of too much polish on your brush. I used three thin coats for full coverage. Self levels on its own.

This line of polish is no longer available in Sephora stores, but I have seen them at local discount chains. I bought this at Winners.

NOTD sponged failure

I decided to share my sponging fail today. One of those manicures that I imagined to look much nicer on the nail. Oh well. Gotta try, right?

Polishes used were Sephora by OPI I Come In Peas, Maybelline Bold Gold, and Nicole by OPI Star Of The Party.




So, something was lost in translation, but I thought I would share anyway. As most of us know, not every manicure is flawless! Thanks for stopping by and hope you all have a great weekend.

Ocean Love Potion Sephora by OPI

I know, I know, Sephora is no longer carrying these polishes, but they do still have some on clearance so you may be able to still find it. Or like me, find it at a discount chain. I found this beauty at Winners.

Ocean Love Potion is a sea green creme polish. Formula is a tad on the thin side but very pigmented, so there were no issues with coverage. Just be careful of pooling at the cuticles and you'll be fine. Photos are two thin coats with top coat.




I really like this colour. Sometimes shades like this just don't work for me! Thanks for stopping in today!

Is It Payday Yet?

Today I have Sephora by OPI Is It Payday Yet?  I happened to find this at my local Winners!  Every once in a while I find a nice haul there.

Is It Payday Yet? is a yellow leaning limeish green. Normally shades like this don't work for me, but this one did. It is a bit of a strange colour however, and won't appeal to everyone. Great formula. Full coverage in two coats and leveled on its own really well. Photos are shown with top coat.





This would also be a great polish for using in nail art, I think. For more from this brand, they can be found at the Sephora website, or in store, if you have one locally.

Thanks for having a look. As always, I love to hear from readers, so feel free to comment below!

I Gotta Blush On You...

I Gotta Blush On You from Sephora by OPI. I found this at my local Winners! Available at Sephora too! I'm always on the hunt for a nice nude. Who would think that they could be so hard to find.

Following the name, I Gotta Blush On You, is a blush toned neutral. With my skin tone this appeared to have a bit of a brown undertone. 1st coat was streaky, but the 2nd almost completely covered. I did a light 3rd coat just to touch up a bit. Great formula. Photos taken outdoors in the sun. With top coat.




Strangely, this gave me a bit of lobster hands. I didn't expect that with this shade. Of course that all depends on individual skin tone. Sadly I don't think I'll be wearing this on its own again, but I can see using it for nail art. This is just based on colour. It did have a great formula and good coverage. Do you have trouble finding nice neutrals? Thanks for stopping by!
