OPI & Wet 'n Wild

31/8/2012

 
Today I decided to try another one of my new-ish OPI polishes. I was in the mood for something simple so I picked Pedal Faster Suzi! It's a pretty, delicate pink with lots of silver shimmer. I liked it a lot more on my nails than I thought it would!
It was very sheer though and required four or five coats, I'm not sure which as I lost count! But it dried really quickly so I didn't mind it. It dries a bit matte so you'll need a good shiny top coat to bring out all the pretty shimmer.

After a couple of hours I I started to feel like it's missing something. I'm not used to wearing pale colours on their own so I started rummaging through my nail polish box. I picked Wet 'n Wild Night Prowl, which I haven't worn yet so it was the perfect chance to give it a try. Night Prowl is a black nail polish with lots and lots of purple shimmer.
It actually looks glittery in the bottle but the shimmer is much more fine and subtle in real life. And it's even less noticeable on my nails. Anyway, I decided to do a French manicure with Night Prowl!
I like how the silver and purple shimmer look next to each other. Next time I'll definitely try Night Prowl on it's own!
