Sephora by OPI - Mini Glimmer Wonderland Collection (Picture Heavy!)

This was a Christmas gift from my neighbor and as soon as I saw the colors I knew I was going to be obsessed. There were only two colors I was disappointed in. 
The first color is called 'Bare to Be Different'. It's an extremely sheer, extremely light pink. It almost looked like a clear top coat with a tiny hint of pink. I wasn't a huge fan of this color because I don't love sheers. This is one of the colors I didn't like.
The second color I absolutely love! It's called 'Looks Like Rain Dear'. It's a sheer gold jelly with tiny silver glitter and a bit larger holographic glitter. I used two top coats and it gave me full coverage. I didn't think I would like this color from the bottle but when it was on my nails I loved it.

The next color is called 'Sample Sale'. Again, I'm not a huge fan of reds but this one was pretty nice. It has a really nice shimmer to it.

The next color I absolutely hated. It's called 'Never Enough Shoes'. It's a sheer black that becomes opaque after two coats. It has a little shimmer to it and I can't really tell what color the shimmer is because the black polish just swallows the shimmer. On my nails it looked like absolute crap and you could barely see the shimmer. You especially cannot see it in the pictures. Definitely my least favorite from the collection. Bleh. Gross.

The next color I love! It's called 'No-el if I Know'. It's little holographic glitters in a clear jelly base. I used it as a top coat over the gross 'Never Enough Shoes' because I love how holographic glitter looks over dark nail polish. The pictures definitely didn't show how awesome this glitter it but in person it looks like stars in the night sky. I took a couple of pictures of this to try and get some good pictures of it but it just wasn't working out.


And finally the last color, ' Already Famous'. I have to say I really love this color. It's like a foil champagne color. It looks more like a taupe or bronze color in the bottle but on my nails it really looked like a champagne color.

  2. Nice swatches! I love sheer polishes they have their place in my heart! But that one is not sheer it is pretty much clear! Thou if someone were not like us and polish that much and have not stained their nails it might be a nice alternative from a clear case coat!
