OPI Every Month Is Oktoberfest

 Hi guys! We finally got our internet hooked up the other day and got most of all our things unpacked and into the house. Thankfully, all of my polish made it safe, my drawer set that houses my nail art supplies didn't fair so well, it got a forklift ran through it along with my poor toaster oven, but other than that I can't complain. I have been sorting out and setting up a nail spot but haven't quite decided where I want it to be since the house has a main floor and a basement. Plus, with boxes and everything else thrown about it's tough to set a spot aside at the moment. Needless to say it has been busy here.
 Anyways, today I have one of the polishes from the OPI Germany collection for fall. Every Month Is Oktoberfest is a dark, vampy, gorgeously stunning purple-blue base with red, gold and purple shimmer. It is mesmerizing to look at. Pictures are two effortless coats, the formula was perfect and I couldn't be happier with this one!

China Glaze Swanky Silk

 Hey everyone, hope your week has been going great, it has been a long stressful past few days for us! We finally closed on our house yesterday and are getting things moved in so I will not have internet for a few days until it gets hooked up. Hopefully, everything will be quick. All of our belongings that have been in shipment will be coming in this week as well and I am excited to have everything and get settled in here.
 Continuing today with the second polish I picked up from the China Glaze Bohemian collection is Swanky Silk. It is a gold with a peachy duochrome. This one looked interesting at the store in the bottle, that's the only reason I bought it, on the nail though I was disappointed with it because the duochrome isn't that visible. Picture is two coats. Like Unpredictable it was sheer on the first coat and does leave brushstrokes.


 You can see the duochrome better in this picture.


 But this is what it looked like most of the time.

China Glaze Unpredictable

 Hey guys! Since we have been moving, visiting family and buying a house I have been a bit out of the nail polish loop lately. When I saw the promo pictures for the new China Glaze Bohemian Luster Chrome collection last week I was excited to get to see them in person. I've been stalking my Sally Beauty Supply the last few days waiting and they finally put them out yesterday. It took awhile to narrow my choices down and I ended up with only two from the collection.
 Unpredictable is a metallic golden green with blue duochrome. You can't see the duochrome in the pictures on the nail, it looks much better in real life, but you can see it in the bottle. In real life it reminds me of this beetle. Picture is two coats. It does cover well despite being very sheer on the first coat. The only issue I had was, like most metallic polishes, it does show brushstrokes.



 Do you like duochrome polishes? Have you seen the Bohemian collection yet, which are your favorites?
