I hope I will not be stepping on anyone's toes by doing a Try it on Tuesday, as I know a lot of nail bloggers have TIOT. I have around 85 untried polishes in my collection and I thought this would be the perfect way to get them all tried out! With that said lets get in to the first TIOT!
Last week I went in to a TJ Maxx for the first time and ran across a couple of OPI Polishes from the Katy Perry Collection packaged together for $7.99, could not pass that up! One of the colors the pack contained was Not Like the Movies. NLTM is a beautiful silver/grey duo chrome with tiny flecks of silver shimmer. When I first got it home and swatched it I thought this looks a lot like Grey's Anatomy from Wet n Wild, so I went and grabbed that from my stash and swatched it beside NLTM, not a dupe at all, not even close LOL
I really like Not Like the Movies, application and dry time were great. The duo chrome was beautiful and the little flecks of silver just set the polish off. I do wish I had applied 3 coats instead of 2 because my nail line was still visible.
Next Tuesday I will be back with the other polish that came in this set!
lol It always surprises me how much people like this polish. I did not. At all. Even after three coats it's still pretty sheer when the light hits it and maybe I had an off bottle but it took forever to dry for me. Good luck wading through your untrieds!
ReplyDeleteI wonder if you did get an off bottle, I was shocked at how quick it dried. It will only take me like a year and a half to get them all posted LOL but knowing me I'll keep buying new polishes to add to that list :)
DeletePretty! Wow, you have a lot of untried polishes! I think I do too...maybe I should start swatching away. If nothing else it would prevent me from biting my nails, lol
ReplyDeleteI say swatch away LOL :) I really had no clue I had that many untried polishes but I think it will be fun to finally get them all tried out.
DeleteVery pretty nail polish.
ReplyDeleteI got a mini set of this collection a couple of years ago, this is a lovely shade!
