Nice Stems! OPI Summer Collection

Summer Pinks in Bloom!
Nice Stems! by OPI Revamps Nails with Vibrant Pink Hues for Summer 2011

Stop and see the flowers with summer’s Nice Stems! by OPI, a limited edition collection featuring four new nail lacquers in stunning shades of pink. With whimsical names based on their floral inspirations, these vibrant, flirty colors range from pale, frosty pink to rich fuchsia. Nice Stems! offers fingers and toes a perfectly pink shade for all of summer’s looks.

“These vibrant, feminine hues complement 60’s ladylike fashions, 70’s glam looks, and bold color-blocking, which are the season’s staples,” says Suzi Weiss-Fischmann, OPI Executive VP & Artistic Director. “The Nice Stems! collection also offers an interesting contrast and feminine accent to the punk and biker looks on the runways.”

Nice Stems! by OPI shades include:



Play the Peonies
We’d put our money on this lovely soft-pink.



Come to Poppy
Surrender to shine with this shimmering coral-pink.



Be a Dahlia Won’t You?
Give the gift of fabulous fuchsia—to yourself!



I Lily Love You
Fall head over heels with this light pink sparkle.

“Using different micas and glitters can give lacquer a 3-dimensional look,” adds Weiss-Fischmann. “I Lily Love You is a glitter coat that can be layered over any of the other three shades to add a bright sparkle; or, it can be worn on its own for a subtle tint of pink with strands of glitter.”

The Nice Stems! Nail Lacquers by OPI contain no DBP, Toluene, or Formaldehyde, and feature OPI’s exclusive ProWide™ Brush for the ultimate in application.

This limited edition Nice Stems! collection will be available beginning June 2011 at Professional Salons, including Beauty Brands, Beauty First, Chatters, Dillard’s, JCPenney, Pure Beauty, Regis, Trade Secret, and ULTA, for $8.50 ($10.95 CAN) suggested retail for each Nail Lacquer.

Happy (belated) St. Patrick's Day with Essie: Pretty Edgy

TGIF! I feel like my week went by super slow, that is so annoying!!! Tonight my husband and I are watching our 8 month old nephew so his mommy and daddy can have a date night. We're excited, he's such a cutie!!

Yesterday was St. Patrick's Day and I was too lazy to blog so I am going to show you my green of choice today.  I wore Essie's Pretty Edgy which is a vibrant green creme. I think Essie called it a pimento green or something like that.  I'd been wanting this one for a long time but always skipped purchasing it. I am not sure why.  While I am happy that I finally decided to drop the cash on it it's not as amazing as the internet world would have you believe, you don't need this. I feel like it's pretty close to Nina Ultra Pro's Salsa, which I own. I think this one is slightly brighter than the Nina polish but close.

Formula wise this is a good polish. I needed three coats for the level of opacity that I am comfortable with.  It's a creme finish with a high gloss finish. Even though I needed three coats I didn't have any issues with balding or streaking at all, so that's good.





So what did you wear on St. Patrick's Day? Let me know in the comments!!!!
