OPI Into the Night

Into the Night was one of the duds from The Amazing Spiderman collection (in my opinion). Application was funky as it leaves visible brushstrokes that are typical of frost finishes. I dislike frosts so it's no surprise that I dislike Into the Night. The color is fine, the finish just ruined it for me!
Definitely one to pass. 





I really don't have much more to say about this one. What do you think?

Thanks for reading!

OPI Just Spotted the Lizard *Picture Heavy*

While my husband finished school, we lived with his parents because my teaching salary didn't allow us a lot of (ok any) wiggle room. The week he got his job, I bought a bottle of Chanel Peridot to celebrate. I know, I should have payed a bill instead. =) A week later I was put on medical leave and later disability but for a week, I could afford Chanel nail polish and it was awesome. Little did I know, there would be so many dupes of my beloved Peridot. I hadn't been obsessed with polish very long at that point so I didn't realize I could just wait and get a cheaper version. That's ok, I love my fancy nail polish and it makes me feel special. 

I now have two bottles of this magical duochrome, one being OPI's Just Spotted the Lizard from The Amazing Spiderman Collection of course! They are dead on, I can't tell the difference at all even with the formula which is lovely, by the way. 

I think this polish is so unique. I love the golden green shift. I tried to capture the light blue shift, but it didn't happen. You can see the blue in the edges of the bottle. It does translate on the nail, I promise.
 I took a lot of pictures of this stunner, I couldn't get enough!






I don't know why anyone would want to cover this up with a shatter but here it is with Shatter the Scales. Not my cup of tea. 


Here is my fancy polish, Chanel Peridot! *swoon*



What do you think? Are you as smitten as I am or can you leave this on the shelf?
