Today I have the OPI Mariah Carey Collection to share with you. The liquid sands are quite interesting. I'll let you know what I think of them at the end of this post.
~Studio Shades~
OPI A Butterfly Moment
A Butterfly Moment, a pretty vintage pink with golden shimmer. It's a very nice neutral color and great to wear as a palette cleanser I quite like it. A great formula I used 2 coats.
OPI Pink Yet Lavender layered over A Butterfly Moment
Pink Yet Lavender, holographic micro glitter with pink and lavender hexagons in a clear jelly base. It was a bit thick so I dabbed it on. I think these two were meant to be together. It's a very elegant look.
OPI Sprung
Sprung, copper and gold foil shimmer it's amazing. My photos doesn't give it justice. I used 2 coats but next time I'll add one more coat to give it a bolder look. The formula was a bit thin but it built up nicely.
OPI Anti-Bleak
Anti-Bleak, a dark red purple creme, it's saturated I could have gotten away with one coat I use two coats. Nice formula flowed on the nail evenly.
Here is one coat
~Liquid Sands~
OPI Get Your Number
Get Your Number, a sheer blue base with holographic and silver glitter. I used two easy coats I should have used three coats to cover my nail line better.
with topcoat
OPI Can't Let Go
Can't Let Go, grape purple base with purple micro and purple hex glitter. I used two coats.
with topcoat
OPI The Impossible
The Impossible, red base with red and silver glitter also some silver star glitters in the mix. I turned my bottle over for about an hour before applying. The stars pretty much stayed on the bottom, two of them managed to come out and play look real close at my middle and ring fingers. I used two coats.
with topcoat
OPI Stay The Night
Stay The Night, black base with bright pink glitter. The pink glitters sparkle. It's beautiful and it's my favorite from the liquid sands. I used two coats.
with topcoat
I'm wearing Stay The Night as a notd. My left hand is with the matte sandy look and my right hand is applied with two thick coats of seche vite topcoat. I asked hubby which hand did he like and I was surprised that he liked them both. So far after one day no chipping or tip wear.
One day of wear
