opi hong kong part 2

here are the rest of the colors that i bought from the opi hong kong collection that came out this spring.

red my fortune cookie is the quintessential opi red. lovely, bright, pigmented, and easy to apply. do i love it? yes i do! and in case you're wondering, no i didn't do clean up on this swatch for some gawd-awful reason, eww.
dim sum plum has such a cute name haha. it's another creme that has that slightly dusty feel to the color, which i love. reddish purpley plummy berry color that is on the cool side of the spectrum. i didn't think i'd be crazy about this color but i ended up really liking it on me.
and last but not least, is jade is the new black. the stand out star from the collection in many opinions, this guy is totally one of my absolute favorite nail polishes of all time. a dusty mid-tone green that doesn't compete with any of my other thousand green lacquers. *sigh* i'm in love! i took a lot of pictures of this one haha.

what were your favorite colors from this collection? hope you all had a great weekend! i went out with my friends for an early birthday celebration. we decided to go out this weekend instead of next (when my actual birthday is) because it falls on Father's Day, so there would be family in town and other obligations yadda yadda yadda. it was fun times and i'm certainly still tired today from all the shenanigans. and i've learned a universal truth, every girl deserves tiramisu and arbor mist for her birthday!!

hiii honey bunnies! i've had a pretty good weekend and finally decided i better post something nail polish related for y'all. this is my review of the opi hong kong collection that came out earlier this year. it was a great collection, probably one of my favorites on whole that opi has done in a long time.

suzi says feng shui
is my favorite blue polish ever. it's a perfect opi creme, medium toned, and slightly dusty. i cannot rave enough about this beauty. this application was done with the mini-bottle of it, but i loved it so much i went back and purchased a full size bottle of this baby. believe me, you need this!
cloudy/sunlight
i had just gotten orly's prisma gloss gold topcoat and decided to try it over the blue. it's not my favorite combination, but i do love them both separately.
the next color i have to show you is hot and spicy. it's a medium bright coral-orange with that hint of dustiness that some of the cremes in this collection have. i thought i would like this guy very much, but it ended up being disappointing to me. i was expecting it to be browner or something. anyway, i ended up returning it, although it is a nice color. just not unique like i was hoping.
meet me on the star ferry is one of the three shimmers in the collection. this purple/plummy polish is super gorgeous. it has a very interesting finish, frosty but shimmery but with flecks of foil glitter in it? crazy cool! gold, blue, red, and green all stand out in the unique shimmer. la la love this one!

the next shimmer that i got from the collection is bling dynasty. definitely in my top 10 golds, this is a stunning warm yellow-brown gold polish with that same frosty/shimmery finish that meet me on the star ferry has. i absolutely adore this and wore it for almost a week straight! very flattering on my skin tone.

a few more polishes from this collection are yet to come so stay tuned!
