OPI released a late Summer 2009 Collection called SunBelievable last month, and I’ve been slow to get my hands on it. I actually kinda fell away from OPI as a brand because of it’s expense. I find there are other brands that are just as good without being as expensive, such as Orly and China Glaze.
However, the quality of OPI’s formula and color selection cannot be ignored by someone such as myself who claims to be a lover of all things lacquer! Since I am a cosmetology student, I have been allowed access to Professional beauty supply wholesale stores, which has allowed me to find OPI polishes at an extremely amazing price, so you will see more of them on this site.
I will admit, this is the first time I have purchased a yellow nail polish that I actually liked! Usually I think my nails just look like they’ve been in the sun too long and look crazy, but this shade is buttery smooth and I really liked it. I also got another shade from this collection as well, and will be posting it soon.

I told you guys I scored some nail polish, and I didn’t want to delay in showing it to you guys! I messed up my manicure putting lashes on someone so I had to change it anyway. That darn eyelash glue does NOT come off of nails easily like hair glue!
These two shades are from Orly’s Fall 2009 Once Upon A Time Collection which is why I decided to show them this way. I’m not actually going to wear them right now because frankly they are very dark and Fall like, hence the Fall collection status..lol. Prince Charming is a really nice milk chocolate creme shade, and the Enchanted Forest is an intense emerald green creme that looks amazing with my skin tone I think.
I just wanted to give you guys a preview based on what I was able to get my hands on. The collection contains 6 shades with a Fairy tale theme. I absolutely love the colors I’m showing you today.Each bottle came with a cute little charm attached that kinda fit the theme of the color.
Prince Charming has a crown charm, and Enchanted Forest has a butterfly charm. Very cute though I can’t imagine that I’ll actually use them. I can’t wait for some cold weather so I can actually rock these colors!

A few months back, I entered a contest given by Essie brand nail polish to win a bottle of nail polish that was part of a special 2 color collection only available through the contest. Essie had partnered up with Jello for their Jello RedHaute Flavors of Summer contest. To enter, you had to come up with a new flavor of Jello and enter a UPC from a Jello box.
I tried my luck and quickly forgot all about it as I do with just about every contest I enter. I never expect to actually win. However, when I checked my mail today there was a little package waiting for me from Essie with a bottle of the Strawberry Acai (described as a rich, juicy berry shade) special edition nail polish!I was one of 2,000 winners, so shout out to all the other winners of the contest! Actually the nail polish was first prize. The grand prize was a years worth of manicures and like a years worth of Jello. I am very happy I won first prize, and will be showing you guys a swatch of the polish very soon. Until then…
