Nature: Birds and Feathers

Second post of the day, aren't you lucky!!

I used the OPI AmazON... AmazOFF as a base for some nature inspired nail art.

The bird and feather are water decals. On my index finger I used a real feather. On top of my base coat I added a coat of clear and used this to stick down the end of the feather. I then trimmed around the edge, added another two coats of topcoat to smooth it down and filed down anything overhanging the edge.

 I love this finger!!

OPI AmazON... AmazOFF

These little beauties arrived earlier this week.

My first ever OPI polishes. Lets see if they live up to their popularity!

Today I have tried out AmazON... AmazOFF. In the bottle this looks like a very deep forest green type colour, which is similar on the nails.

I found this polish was quite thin. The first coat was rather streaky where the polish was so thin, meaning I had to do at least 3 coats. I did like the brush though. Quite often mini polishes have mini brushes, meaning it takes twice as long to apply, but the brush in these was a normal sized brush in a mini bottle. I love the colour and it dried nice and smooth and shiny, even without topcoat.

I'm not sure I'd pay the price for a full sized bottle of OPI from this swatch, but at £2 a mini bottle it's not too bad. Maybe the other colours will be better!
