OPI ~ Samovar-y Nice to be
here
Deep orange shimmer
I thought I’d show you another older HTF OPI polish: Samovar-y Nice to
be here. It’s from the Moscow Loves OPI collection from winter 2009, and it’s a
Russia
exclusive.
The formula is great and the polish covers really well. I used two easy
coats for my mani and the drying time is average. My boyfriend didn’t mention
anything about the smell, so I guess it’s pretty normal (if you don’t know what
I’m talking about, you should check out my post about Reflecting Pool here).
Here’s two coats and a layer of topcoat:
The shimmer is great, and I love this colour!
I paired it with a newer OPI “Cinnamon Sweet”, which is a lovely red
crème. I applied a layer of the red on top of the orange, and then I used a
rough sponge to dab some of the red off again. I made it all come together with
a layer of topcoat, and here is my final mani:
I love the look of this!
I am so glad that I have got this orange gem in my collection!
