I Had to Have it!

Over the last 2 years my nail polish collection has grown from around 10 bottles of half dried up polish to a little over 100 bottles of some of the best quality polishes I have found. I don't have many of the same color and have looked at it as a true collection. It makes me happy, what can I say. This new onset of collecting polish comes with me having grown my nails out. I have bite my nails my whole life and had never had anything to paint! Having my nails polished and collecting this polish has helped me to keep them grown out. So, long story short....I found a polish that I have nothing like and actually love so much, I'm going back to get another so that when they discontinue it, I have a back up. Here is is.

Product: O.P.I Nail Lacquer

Color: Push and Shove (chrome formula)

Collection: Gwen Stefani

Price:$9.00 at Ulta

Promises: Ultra chrome finish

The product packaging recommends using the accompanying (see pic below) "Lay Down that Base", base coat first. Use one coat of the base coat, let dry completely, then apply two thin layers of the polish. Do not use a top coat or quick dry top coat. I went by the directions and the polish dries very fast. I was skeptical if I would like it because I can't stand to paint my nails and not use some sort of quick dry such as "Out the Door" or a quick dry spray. 

                                         

                                         Packaging with sample size base coat and full size polish

                                          

               The lighting makes it look gold in this pic, but wanted to give you a idea of the product sizes.

So now let's see this beauty on the nails!

I absolutely love it! Also I must warn that the packaging does warn that this polish is meant to be used for short term or "one night only" wear. I do see where it does wear quicker on the tips. It just gives a silver foil like look, is some places almost a mirror effect. It's just so different from your typical silver polish. I have found that a lot of silver polish has glitter to shimmer added, this has none. Overall I think it is a great addition to your collection and will be awesome all year round, but especially for summer on toes :)  Thanks for reading!
