Metallic 4 Life: Review, Photos & Swatches

Metallic 4 Life is from the OPI Nicki Minaj Collection and its a pretty black based color with small, medium and large silver glitters within it.

Metallic 4 Life is a little sheer so you definitely need a few extra coats to make it opaque. I used three coats and I think it looks very pretty. I'm wondering how this would look paired with another dark nail polish? Have you guys tried it out? I'm afraid that it might ruin the base color since Metallic 4 Life is black based. I prefer the clear based glitter nail polishes because you can pair those with any nail polish and it will look cute :)

Fly: Review, Photos & Swatches

Fly is from the OPI Nicki Minaj Collection and its a gorgeous vibrant neon, turquoise color with a glossy finish. Fly is my favorite color from this collection along with Pink Friday. I have a thing for teal and pink nail polishes, I just love them so much :)

Fly is the only color from this collection that isn't sheer or streaky on my nails after it's applied. The formula of this nail polish is really good and it was opaque after just two coats.

Pink Friday: Review, Photos & Swatches

Pink Friday is from the OPI Nicki Minaj Collection and its a beautiful baby pink/bubblegum pink color with a glossy finish. This is one of my favorite colors from this collection. When I saw the promo pictures of this collection, I just knew that this color had to be mine. I'm such a sucker for pinks, its my favorite color :)

Pink Friday is a little streaky on the first coat but nothing too extreme. Its definitely a lot less streaky than Did It On 'Em which is also one of the colors from this collection (read my review of Did It On 'Em here) I used two coats of Pink Friday and it looks really pretty but if you add a third coat, its going to look perfect :)

Pink Friday is not a unique color so if you have a bunch of pink nail polishes in your collection already, you probably don't need this color unless you love nail polish like me :)

Did It On ‘Em: Review, Photos & Swatches

Did It On 'Em is from the OPI Nicki Minaj Collection and its a yellow-green chartreuse color with a cream finish. This is definitely one of those  ''love it or hate it'' kind of nail polishes. Its not my favorite color from this collection but I guess its still a ''fun'' color for the summer :)

Did It On 'Em have been compared a lot to Who the Shrek Are You? and Fiercely Fiona from the OPI Shrek Collection. I dont own any of those colors but from the all the comparisons that I have seen, Did It On 'Em looks like a perfect blend between those two colors. Its little bit lighter and more yellow.

I dont have anything like this color in my collection which I think is great. This is not one of those colors that grabs my attention. Did It On 'Em is streaky and a little sheer after the first coat but it gets better on the second and third coat. Im not sure how much use I will get out of this nail polish since Im not the biggest fan of the color but Im sure I will get some use out of it in the summer and in my nail art tutorials :)

♥ Did it On 'Em.

Did It On 'Em is a creamy yellow-green chartreuse color. This is definitely one of those ''love it or hate it'' kind of nail polishes. Its not my favorite color from this collection but I guess its pretty in its own way. I don't have anything like this color in my nail polish collection which is nice :)


♥ Fly.

Fly is a vibrant teal creme color. This is my one of my favorite colors from this collection, I just love it :)


♥ Pink Friday.

Pink Friday is a beautiful baby pink/bubblegum pink creme color. This is also a favorite of mine, I just knew I would love this color from the moment I saw all the promo pictures from this collection :)


♥ Metallic 4 Life.

Metallic 4 Life is a beautiful black based color with small and large silver glitters. I think this color will look very cool paired with another dark nail polish, what do you guys think? Let me know if you have tried that out :)

Haul Post: OPI Nicki Minaj Collection, Essie & Naked 2 Palette

My package from Beautybay finally arrived today. The main reason for placing an order on Beautybay was because I wanted to pick up the Naked 2 palette for one of my upcoming giveaways. I also picked up some extra goodies for myself as well, I just cant help myself when it comes to shopping, haha. I hope you enjoy my little haul post and let me know in the comments below if you have any product recommendations :)


♥ Essie Lady Like & Haute As Hello.


♥ Essie Lady Like.

Lady Like is a gorgeous muted lilac toned pink with a cream finish. This nail polish has been on my nail polish wishlist for quite some time, Im so happy its finally mine :) You can find Lady Like here.


♥ Essie Haute As Hello.

Haute As Hello is a beautiful neon coral/orange color. This color has been recommended to me so I just had to pick it up and give it a try. This looks like the perfect neon coral/orange nail polish for the summer time, what do you think? :) You can find Haute As Hello here.






♥ L-R: Did It On Em, Fly, Pink Friday & Metallic 4 Life.

After seeing swatches of the OPI Nicki Minaj Collection, I just had to pick up this cute set with 4 of the colors from the collection. I cant wait to play around with these, all the colors look so pretty. How cool would Metallic 4 Life look on top of another nail polish? Ahhhh, I cant wait to try that out :)

I like Nicki, I think she stands out from most artists today which makes her unique in my eyes. I also think her voice is pretty cool, what do you think about Nicki? :) You can find the OPI Nicki Minaj Mini Collection here.



I absolutely love my Naked 2 palette, its probably my favorite eyeshadow palette at the moment. Since I love it so much, I ordered one for an upcoming giveaway here on Makeup, Beauty & Fashion. Im so happy it arrived safe and sound because mine was broken when I recieved it which sucks! I might order a new one for myself next time I place an order at Beautybay.You can find the Naked 2 Palette here.

Have you ordered from Beautybay before? :) Thanks for looking :) Xoxo, Christine♥

OPI: Pamplona Purple & Houston We Have a Purple [Swatches]

I recently picked up these two nail polishes from OPI at Cubus. They were having a really good deal on OPI nail polishes, two for the price of one so of course I had to take advantage of their offer :)

I picked up two colors, Pamplona Purple & Houston We Have a Purple which are gorgeous purples. I think I will be wearing Pamplona Purple with Confetti Kisses from H&M on Christmas Eve, its such a perfect Christmas combination :)

I think Pamplona Purple is the perfect purple color. Its not too dark nor too light. Houston We Have a Purple is very sheer so you have to apply many coats to get the same color thats in the bottle. I applied 4 coats and you can see that its still a little sheer. I still love the color, I just wish it was more opaque :)

Which color from OPI is your favorite? :)
