Hello my friends! It's been a little while since I have blogged. Definitely not completely intention. As I mentioned in one of my previous posts life has been a little hectic and quite stressful for me so I've had to take a little step back from nails for a little bit. I will be popping up every now and again but for the time being I won't be on any regular blogging schedule. Anyway, today I have the new OPI Washington DC Collection. This collection is a collaboration between OPI and the actress Kerry Washington, who was recently named as the brands first ever Creative Ambassador. The collection consists of twelve permanent shades (which I have to share with you today) and three limited edition shades.
This collection by far has some of the best and most consistent formulas that I can recall from OPI. Each polish is really easy to work with and in a lot of cases you could get away with using only one coat. I wish all polishes had a formula like these polishes. I don't think I could love them any more. For all of my swatches I used two coats.
C.I.A = Color Is Awesome is a teal blue creme. Such a gorgeous colour.
Freedom Of Peach is a peachy sienna creme. I think this is quite an interesting colour. I'm not sure if I like it or not on my skin tone but it's definitely a great autumn tone polish.
Madam President is a pink toned red creme (or is it a red toned pink?). Whatever you want to call it, I really like it. This was actually the first polish in the collection that I reached for.
Never A Dulles Moment is described as a curry yellow creme. This one I did find applied slightly unevenly on the first coat but evens out perfectly on the second coat.
OPI By Popular Vote is described as a cool apple red. Now if you have been following for a while then you will probably know that red is not usually a favorite of mine, especially red cremes. Well for some strange reason I love this polish. I would go as far as saying that this is my favorite polish in the entire collection. I even wore it as a full mani for two days in a row.
Pale To The Chief is a nude creme with a very subtle shimmer throughout. I quite like the colour of this one, although the shimmer is very hard to see in person (and on camera). I think I would like this one more if it didn't have the shimmer.
Shh...It's Top Secret! is a very dark brown creme. This polish is super dark that for the most part it looks black.
Squeaker Of The House is chocolate brown creme. This one does apply a little uneven on the first coat but evens out on the second coat.
Stay Of The Lawn!! is blue toned green creme. Such a pretty colour.
Suzi - The First Lady Of Nails is an olive green creme. This one does apply slightly uneven on the first coat but evens out perfectly on the second coat. I am also a fan of this colour too.
We The Female is a garnet creme. Another red creme that I quite like and it is close to being a one coater.
Yank My Doodle is tawny brown with a slight reddish tone creme.
Overall, I am really impressed with this collection. The colours are perfect for a Winter/Fall Collection and the formulas are amazing. My personal favorites are OPI By Popular Vote, Madam President, CIA = Color Is Awesome and Stay Off My Lawn!!
