Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!


Name: Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok Fine!

Collection: German 2012

Colour: Deep moss green base with grey, black, navy and brown undertone (Very hard to describe!)

Coats: 1-2

Pros: This is a truly unique and constantly changing colour. As I moved through different lighting during the day, I saw various dark “military” shades like army green and dark navy. I didn’t have much extra time between classes to apply more than one coat so I was impressed with its coverage and fast drying time. I usually find dark polishes flat and boring but I like this polish because it plays with a mix of really interesting tones.

Cons: The only complaint I have is that I had to touch this polish up quite a few times over the days I was wearing it as the tips chipped really badly.

Similar Shades: If you are a fan of this colour, I suggest you check out the darker shades in OPI’s Touring America Collection from last year or “Here Today Argon Tomorrow” which is a darker, very deep green.

Get In the ‘Expresso’ Lane



Name: Get In the ‘Expresso’ Lane

Collection: Touring America

Colour: Dark Coffee Brown

Coats: 2

Pros: A smooth and creamy high gloss polish that is a nice alternative to black. It was super easy to apply and there were no streaks.

Cons: A bit muddy for my taste also a little boring for a dark polishes. I also dislike that there are some weird green undertones that can make this look murky in some lights.

Similar Shades: “Here Today Argon Tomorrow” is a deep green that is also high patent but goes on darker. “Suzi Loves Cowboys” is a more true chocolate brown that is warmer, but still a glossy crème.
