OPI A Grape Affair

OPI A Grape Affair
2 coats


A Grape Affair is a dark purple crème inspired by Grape Fanta. This is really vampy, but still looks purple in the sun. Indoors, it does pull really dark. Still so pretty.
 
OPI A Grape Affair is from the Coca-Cola Collection, a 9 piece collection inspired by Coca-Cola beverages. I purchased the "10 Pack of Style", which contains minis of 8 shades along with a mini of Nail Envy as well as the OPI Top Coat. I also purchased a big bottle of Orange You Fantastic, the last shade in the set, because it wasn't available in a mini and because I had to have the complete set in my possession. :-)

OPI Get Cherried Away

OPI Get Cherried Away
2 coats


Get Cherried Away is a magenta creme inspired by Cherry Coke. I originally thought the formula on this was nice, and quite pigmented, but once I looked at my pictures I could totally see that I needed another coat. So frustrating!

OPI Coca-Cola Red

OPI Coca-Cola Red
2 coats


Coca-Cola Red is inspired by regular Coke and is my favorite shade so far- and of course it's my favorite Coca-Cola drink. I found the formula on this polish to be perfect! Two coats gave complete coverage and it is so shiny and glossy and just gorgeous.

OPI Orange You Fantastic!

OPI Orange You Fantastic! (1 coats)
over OPI You're So Vain-illa (3 coats)



Orange You Fantastic has different shapes and sizes of red and gold glitter in a sheer yellow/orange base and is inspired by Orange Fanta. I applied one coat over my prior mani of You're So Vain-illa. The formula was pretty great- I got great glitter coverage in just one coat, and the sheer yellow/orange base added a neat tint to the base color I had on. It smoothed out nicely with a coat of Gelous.

OPI You're So Vain-illa

OPI You're So Vain-illa
3 coats


You're So Vain-illa is inspired by Vanilla Coke. I found the formula to be just OK- it needed three coats to get opaque coverage. It is a really pretty shade, but one that gives me a bit of Lobster Hands, so if you are warm-toned like me, you might have the same problem.

OPI Sorry I'm Fizzy Today

OPI Sorry I'm Fizzy Today
3 coats


Sorry I'm Fizzy Today is inspired by Vanilla Coke. I found the formula on this shade to be somewhat problematic. It was chalky, and even after two careful coats, I had streaking and it was visibly uneven, so I applied a third coat to get the coverage I wanted.

OPI My Signature Is "DC"

OPI My Signature Is "DC"
2 coats


My Signature Is "DC" is inspired by Diet Coke. The formula on this was FANTASTIC- it was practically a one-coater, and if I had been a bit more careful on that first coat I could have stopped there. It dried very fast and seemed dry before I even applied my quick-dry top coat. It's also wearing very well.... I painted these on Friday night, took the pic above on Saturday morning, and now it's Monday morning and it still looks fabulous.

OPI Green On The Runway

OPI Green On The Runway

So you can see in most light, it's a gorgeous green shimmer.....
 
but then in other light, it's reddish brown! Gorgeous!
 
Green On The Runway is inspired by Sprite. Or by the can, at least. :-)

OPI Today I Accomplished Zero

 OPI Today I Accomplished Zero
2 coats
 
Today I Accomplished Zero is from the Coca-Cola Collection, a 9 piece collection inspired by Coca-Cola beverages. I purchased the "10 Pack of Style", which contains minis of 8 shades along with a mini of Nail Envy as well as the OPI Top Coat. I also purchased a big bottle of Orange You Fantastic, the last shade in the set, because it wasn't available in a mini and because I had to have the complete set in my possession. :-)
 

 
Today I Accomplished Zero is a black jelly base with pink glitter, inspired by Coke Zero. I myself am not a fan of Coke Zero..... but I do drink a can of regular Coke every single morning, as my cup of coffee.

Let us take a moment of silence in memory of my most favorite Coca Cola beverage ever..... the dearly departed C2. It had half the calories of regular Coke, but all the taste..... sigh.

But back to the nail polish..... I really love this shade! The first coat was very very sheer, but somehow a second coat made it opaque. One thing to note with this- clean up is a bit hard if you happen to get glitter close to your cuticle. Although the black base polish comes right off with a clean up brush dipped in acetone, that pesky glitter really hung on as you can see on my ring and pinkie fingers above. So you might use an orange stick to remove those immediately if you get too close to the cuticle.

Stay tuned... weather permitting, I hope to swatch these shades over the next week or so!
