OPI GelColor - On Her Majesty's Secret Service Swatches & Review



This is three coats of OPI Gelcolor On Her Majesty's Secret Service Soak off Gel. 

Easy to apply, no shrink back. The colour appears to be made up of blue, grey and gold particles, it seems to change colour depending on the lighting between blue, grey, greeny-gold. Very Sparkly.

NerdLacquer Entirely Unlike Tea over Nails Inc Cadogan Place

As Amanda the creator of NerdLacquer is now back, after mysteriously vanishing for months (see her message here NerdLacquer) It seems a good time to post these pics from March 2012. 

I love the way this combination turned out, quite neutral but with a twist.

OPI Gelcolor Tomorrow Never Dies Swatch Photos

OPI Gelcolor Tomorrow Never Dies Swatch photo

This is from OPI's Limited edition Skyfall collection.

It is the most gorgeous blue, with hint of purple. I used three coats, there was small amount of shrink back on the first coat, which was remedied in the following coats. Other than that application was easy.
