OPI Red Lights Ahead...Where?

OPI Red Lights Ahead...Where?

2 coats



included in the Dutch Treats mini set

from the Spring 2012 Holland collection



 

The formula on this one is fabulous- perfection! It's a really pretty red that leans a bit coral and I think looks great on skin tone. Love love love this one!

Although I love the name of this shade (such a cute pun!), the color is nothing special and it did take three coats for me to get good coverage. I know I've got several similar colors in my collection that are just 2 coaters. But the name, oh, it's so cute!

Pedal Faster Suzi! is a nice shimmery pink, but it did take three coats for me to get good coverage. I have seen some bloggers say it just took them two coats, but I wasn't pleased with just 2. I got great wear from this.... I actually ended up wearing it for about 4 days and it still looked great on day 4-5.

 

NOTD: OPI I Have a Herring Problem

I recently swatched OPI I Don't Give a Rotterdam, and so I thought I'd make my way thru the Holland Collection.

OPI I Have a Herring Problem

The above swatch is two coats. I definitely think I could have gotten better coverage with 3- see the patchy areas on my ring and middle finger? 

I Have a Herring Problem is the darker version of I Don't Give a Rotterdam. They are so similar, it's interesting that they are in the same collection.

Still sitting sadly in my untried drawer are the shades I purchased from the OPI Holland Collection. I picked OPI I Don't Give A Rotterdam! to do first for no reason other than it was at the front of the drawer.

The above swatch is 2 coats and applied easily. It's a very dusty slate blue, but what makes it beautiful are the shimmery flakes in there- hopefully in the macro shot you can see how pretty they are.

It looks like last March I swatched Wooden Shoe Like to Know?, and I also have full-sized bottles of I Have a Herring Problem and  Dutch 'Ya Just Love OPI?. My spreadsheet tells me I also have the mini set called Dutch Treats, which inclues I Have a Herring Problem, Kiss Me on My Tulips, Pedal Faster Suzi!, and Red Lights Ahead... Where?. This may be the next project I tackle... Holland!
