OPI Cabernet For The Lady

This is OPI Cabernet For The Lady.

This is a really pretty deep berry wine/burgundy/claret with a slight blue shimmer. It seems to be quite a close match to Bogota Blackberry, but since I don't own that one I'm afraid I can't compare them for you... ;)
Yum, I am in love with this one - it's such a sophisticated, velvet-y color, and very autumn appropriate as well.

 On to the pics! (as always; they are clickable)

Application was a breeze, two coats offered great opacity. I can't comment on the lasting power since I only wore it for one day (anxious to try out other polishes from the ever growing stash, y'a know ;)).

What do you think of this one?

That's all I have for you today - hope to see you soon ;)

NOTD: Wet n Wild Speed

Hello there readers!

May I present to you todays NOTD, which is Wet n Wild Speed.

This is a shimmering deep dark purple with blue and pink micro glitter, I've really been craving purples lately, must be the season ;)

Application was OK - the formula was good, but unfortunately the brush is a real disaster. It's really thick and dense, and the brush hairs are unevenly cut with wispy hairs pointing in different directions, which makes it a bit tricky to apply.

Also, it took quite some time to dry, even though I used Seche a topcoat - I made dents after several hours had passed - don't like formulas that behave like that. I really like the shade though!


Let's look at the pics then, shall we?

Direct sunlight...

Indirect sunlight...

The brush...

With flash... 

Looks way more "blurple" here than it really is

So, which is your favorite purple?

That's all for now - I wish you all a great day, see you soon :)
