OPI Thanks a Windmillion Swatch




OPI "Thanks a Windmillion"

Here is a swatch of the Holland collection called Thanks a Windmillion.  It is a gorgeous creamy dirty green colour.  I think it is VERY similar to Mermaid Tears.  Full coverage in two coats and I love the colour :)




Red lights ahead...where? Swatch



"Red lights ahead...where?"

This was the next colour of the OPI Dutch Treats mini's from the Holland Collection.  It is a bright red (with hints of orange but still quite red!).  Great coverage even after one coat and a lovely smooth formula.  I don't have a bright red in my collection and finally I do now!

This completes my OPI mini Dutch Treats swatches!  Overall I loved this little box collection.  Great to try out a selection of different colours :)





Kiss Me in my Tulips Swatch





''Kiss me in my Tulips"

This is the next OPI Dutch Treats mini's I did a swatch of.  It's called Kiss me in my Tulips and is a bright pink.  I only used one coat in the swatches above and it was pretty much opaque but two would give perfect coverage.  Very easy to apply and a nice formula.  I really love this colour, it's so girly!

What do you think of this collection?




OPI Dutch Treats Swatches





I bought the OPI Dutch Treats mini collection from the Holland Collection.  Here are the first two swatches I have reviewed. 

"Pedal Faster Suzi!" and "I Have a Herring Problem" were the colours used in this swatch!  I got impatient and didn't want to wait to do two separate swatches!  But these pictures show the true colours perfectly.  They are both gorgeous glittery polishes and both gave full coverage after three coats (Pedal Faster Suzi! was still a little sheer after three coats, I could still see the whites of my nails very slightly but I loved it).  Both very easy too apply also.

I will upload the other two colours from this mini collection soon!

China Glaze Electric Beat Swatch Electropop Collection




This is a swatch for China Glaze Electric Beat from the Electropop collection.  I bought this last week because it was my favourite colour out of the electropop collection. I LOVE it!  I used OPI Pirouette my whistle on my ring finger just for some fun! 


It is really easy to apply and is a lovely creamy blue colour.  Two coats for perfect coverage!

OPI - My Pointe Exactly swatch




My swatch of OPI my pointe exactly from the New York City Ballet collection.  This took 4 coats to get it to the colour above.  I really like this colour.  It is such a subtle grey colour.  It looks great when it has been matted with a topcoat (have a look at the newspaper nails to see what I mean).  It goes on really easily and looks gorgeous after a few good coats!  Another nice subtle colour from this collection.
