Day 28 - OPI's Ogre The Top Blue with Fish Nail Art

Happy Tuesday everyone! For some reason it really feels like Thursday to me today...maybe I'm just looking forward to the weekend way too much. I can't believe that it's day 28 already - it feels like this whole project only just begun but it's almost over! I'm getting excited about Easter and to finally get a little bit of a break! Anyway, today I have a really cute colour and nail art design for you...check it out!


So here's what I used....

OPI Ogre The Top Blue






A bright, medium blue creme. My favourite blue I've swatched so far! This is from the Shrek Forever After Collection of 2010 - a great collection of bright, fun colours. The formula of this is lovely and is completely opaque with just one coat, but to get this creamy shade and texture I've done 3 here. It also dries really quickly which is a plus.

Fish Nail Art


How cute are these?! Here I used OPI Hot & Spicy for the orange fish and OPI Need Sunglasses? for the yellow. I then added bubbles and eyes etc, using my usual nail art combo Alpine Snow and Black Onyx. Hope this has put a smile on your face like it did for me! And hope the week is treating you well - until tomorrow friends :) xx

Day 27 - OPI St. Petersburgundy swatches and review!

Happy Monday! Bad news again - I'm still sick! But much better than over the weekend so I managed to make it in to uni for my full day of classes and make it home with a little bit of time for some nails! Today's colour is...

OPI St. Petersburgundy







A deep, rich burgundy red. Such a lovely colour. The photos don't really do it justice but it's in fact quite a bit more burgundy in real life. This was one of my first OPI's and it's running out because I've loved and loved it since I got it a few years ago so I thought I should hurry up and swatch it before it runs out completely. The formula is smooth and goes on evenly but needs at least 2 coats because it's relatively sheer for its colour. Overall a great polish!

See you tomorrow :) fingers crossed this tummy ache will be gone by then! <3
