NOTD: $OPI- Le Beau

I'm finally getting around to uploading all my old NOTDs and whatnot. I'm taking a sick today today, so hopefully I'll have mostly everything up by this evening. Today, I'm bringing you $OPI Le Beau, a rather old but amazing color from one of the Sephora by OPI collections.



I'd say this color is just a simple, classy, classic red. Due to the light in the picture it looks more red-toned than it is, it's actually a bit bluer in real life. Application was alright, I got a few bubbles but I'm blaming that on my seche- nail polish doesn't do well in airplanes. I love the $OPI brushes, though it took me awhile to get the hang of them.  I rarely like reds, but I'm actually quite a fan of this one. It's a very classic shade, but doesn't look outdated or old. Overall, a great polish :)

NOTD: $OPI - Blue Grotto

[Please ignore the fact that I'm holding a plastic rhino :P]

Unfortunately, this is my favorite color I own.
I say unfortunately because, although this is quite possibly the most gorgeous blue I've ever seen in my entire freaking life, it's also the most PITA chiptastic blue I own. I'd describe Blue Grotto as a dark purple-toned royal blue. It's amazingly pretty, but it took two coats just to smooth out the streaky, bubbled mess this left me. The bubbles may have been my fault (I'm a polish shaker), but the streaks were bad enough as it is.

I got one more $OPI polish, so I'm hoping that one will be better.
