Press Sample
The OPI Nordic Collection has me so excited for Fall! Lot’s of vampy purple and blue tones, as well as some neutral brown shades with a mix if hot pink and coral. This nail polish collection truly has it ALL. Except a red and green. But there’s always the holiday season for that 😉 All of the nail polishes swatched below were photographed outside in natural light, with no flash.
Going my Way or Norway? is a cafe cream. One coat was fine but there was still some visible nail line so I did two coats for the swatch photo.
Can’t Af Jord Not To is a peachy coral cream. Two coats.
My Voice is a Little Norse has a sheer, grey jelly base with holo glitters. One coat shown over Can’t Af Jord Not To and the pointed finger is just three coats of MVIALN.
How Great is Your Dane? is a deep, dusty chocolate brown… (almost taupe) cream. Two coats.
Do you Have This Color in Stock-holm? is a vibrant indigo (and also my new favorite thing ever) cream. Two coats.
Ice-bergers & Fries is a milk chocolate cream. Two coats. (Side note – the name of this nail polish reminds me of Kid Rock in the movie Joe Dirt where he’s like “How about some wah-burgers and french cries”.) =)
My Dogsled is a Hybrid is a robin’s egg blue cream with a hint of mint. Another one I can’t live without. Two coats.
OPI With a Nice Finn-ish is a golden metallic. Slightly streaky but still gorgeous. Two coats.
Skating on Thin Ice-land is a deep eggplant cream. Two coats.
Suzi Has a Swede Tooth is a mid-tone, girly girl pink cream. Pinks this good never get old. Two coats.
Thank Glogg It’s Friday is a dark magenta with golden shimmer. Two coats.
Viking in a Vinter Vonderland is a blackened grape cream. Two coats.
My faves are My Dogsled is a Hybrid, Do You Have This Color in Stock-holm, Viking in a Vinter Vonderland, Can’t Af Jord Not To, How Great is Your Dane and Suzi Has a Swede Tooth. What are yours?
