NICOLE BY OPI - PITCH-BLACK GLIMMER



This polish is from Nicole by OPI. I think it was one of their holiday polish offerings. All I know is I saw a cool black glitter and I needed to make it mine. I got two other glitters from this same line that I will be showing you in a few days. This is one of the polishes that Santa left for me in my sock.

This was a nice polish. I wish it would have been more opaque though. Shown is 5 coats with no top coat. I do like how smooth this does finish and how quickly it dried for having 5 coats. I couldn't tell much difference between the 3rd 4th and 5th coat. This would work best over a base color if you want it opaque.

I keep wanting to call this bitch-black for some reason. I would have named this polish pepper :)

    You're right, Pepper would have been a better name! Any new puppy pictures to share?

    5 COATS?! Holy hell! LOL Black Pepper is a great name (especially since it's not complete coverage).

    This looks like a very cool color but I never saw it! Is it part of the core collection??

    DESERTNAILS8 - I will get some tonight and post them up tomorrow!

    TASHA - I think it was part of their holiday collection. That is what I read on Scrangies blog. I found mine at Target right before Christmas.

    LMAO at bitch-black! This is a shade I have picked up and out back quite a few times... I just can't seem to make up my mind about it! Why are good black glitters so hard to find? *shakes fist*

    It's such a cool color! I love black glitter, but this one is waay too sheer for me, I'd get frustrated after two coats XD
